Blood and Oil, harkens back to the best elements of Dallas and Dynasty.

Johnson is fun but Crawford is flat and dull, too unengaging to really be a lead on a show like this one... And I don't expect viewers to tune in every week without a hero to keep them engaged.

It is loaded with suspense, heart and intrigue and the scenery is gorgeous in more ways than one. Gee, I sound like I am gushing. I enjoyed it and can see it winning over Americans who don't watch football on Sunday night.

On the one hand, it's full of a lot of the cheesy stereotypes and ludicrous plotting that my soap-loving side is crazy about. On the other... that's about all there is, and what's there isn't very good.

ABC's Blood and Oil was one of several new series of the 2015-2016 season to see a showrunner depart due to "creative differences" before premiering. Having now twice seen the pilot, I'm not surprised.
