Those promos every 5 seconds a couple months ago with the "sugar is the new oil" line eventually made me decide that I can't watch this show.

Every promo was basically cut so that the line delivered was out of context and made to look 200% more dramatic than it really was. The "sugar is the new oil" line is a great example of this. I have no idea what they were thinking.

The promos made me think the network people had a meeting that went like this:

- You know what would be a cool setting for a show? MIAMI! People like CSI Miami.
- Agreed. Make it very latin-y.
- OMG JIMMY SMITS.
- What will it be about?
- Well we know that all Cubans in Florida run drugs, but we would be accused of racism. What else do they like to do? Oh - drink rum!
- Done and done.

Caught a bit. Is it OK if I want this show to fail?

I agree that with Smits involved it has potential, but
Richard Alpert is needed back at the Island soon, so
let's say the show sucks.

His flashback episode will be better than than every episode of this series combined. Please cancel show CBS...probably won't happen since it has a solid lead-in with The Unit.

I could never watch this show given how stupid that line is.
