apocalypse Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 Been watching these again and for me, many times the acting of the co-stars determines how good the episode is. While the plot itself isn't very interesting, the acting is very good in this episode. Judge Ferguson is superb, Berlioz is excellent, Benedict is very good, etc. This is a solid, quality episode. As someone said earlier the meeting of Ferguson and Crockett on the park bench was very well acted. I give this a 7. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the plotline was good but the acting was weak. But I agree on 7/10! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is believable character, and that is what matters most to me. I give "The Fix" a 9/10 Edited November 18, 2023 by RedDragon86 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect a EJO performance from him, but he was believable in his role. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the only actor that is a bit suspect is his son but even he puts in a good scene, like the one where he says to his father "why did you gamble" I think "The Fix" is underrated. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I recall the son was actually another basketball player as opposed to an actor. I think "The FIx" is another of Vice's more period episodes. People who weren't around to experience some of the point-shaving scandals and such during the late '80s aren't going to appreciate it as much. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyfarragut Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) Russell was doing TV broadcasts at the time. Listen to his weird comment about 'the race track' This is a late 1986 game. Was he thinking of Judge Ferguson perhaps? LOL https://youtu.be/ayF3QYKvT-0?si=CfY9iZx750f0UgO6 Edited November 20, 2023 by johnnyfarragut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
