'Bull' Season 6 Episode 1 Fan Review: CBS legal drama 'tense' and 'thought-provoking'
Spoilers for 'Bull' Season 6 Episode 1 'Gone'
Season 6 of 'Bull' was off to a solid start and as it saw Jason Bull (Michael Weatherly) and his Trial Analysis Corporation (TAC) team search for his kidnapped child. 'Gone' sees Astrid being nabbed by the mother of Bull's former patient who dies and she blames the genius doctor for the loss of her son.
The episode also misses Freddy Rodgriguez's charismatic presence, but in introducing Astrid as the main figure in the season opener, it is evident that the show will come up with strong storylines to compensate for the actor's absence and hope for the cast to dish out scintillating performances by the episode. Twitter shared its thoughts on the episode as well. There were positive reviews to start with. "#Bull@ChrisisSingin@M_Weatherly Absolutely phenomenal season premiere of Bull tonight with Ep.1, Gone! On the edge of my seat the entire hour. Loved it!" read one of the tweets. This was seconded by another who wrote: "The best #BullCBS episode ever. Intense, heartbreaking, and beautiful! #Bull #KleenexAlert."
