	Benjamin Bratt, I like the intensity of his character. I like the intelligent dialogue and like his connection with his God! This show is entertaining as well as thought provoking!


	This is one of my favorite shows, cannot wait for it to come back and air


	The characters each play a unique and important roll. I don't think the group would be complete or work as well if they weren't working together. This show is so intense, maybe because it hits home for me. I'm an addict so every time I watch this show I wish it was me getting the help like these people are. I wish we had a "William" here in Chicago, because I would call on myself. And if so send him my way...


	Benjamin Bratt, D-aah!


	It's a very interesting show, and I love each character. I like the way they review prior episodes, so if you happen to miss the previous week, you can catch up a bit. Storey lines are great, it's never dull nor repititious. So happy it's coming back for another year! I have been complaining to my husband that it's not on yet


	It is the best show I have watched helping people get off drugs is super. The show cares about those addicted and help those that want to get and stay clean. Thanks for bringing it back for a second season.


	The show really keeps addiction in reality check. Everything episode i have watched has really hit hard and true. The actors could not have gotten any closer to what really happens in true life. It is so good to see a show that not only shows the long picture of addiction but how close to home it really is. Everyone is exposed to addiction in one way or another and i am glad to say that it's not only an illness but a major struggle in life to overcome. It's refreshing to see a show that shows what will happen and also the outcome of the actions.


	I like everything about The Cleaner. It has good strong morals about it. This show should never go off the air!!!


	I JUST LOVE THE SHOW IN GENERAL I WATCHED IT FROM THE BEGINING AND WAS LOST WHEN IT LEFT SO I AM GLAD IT'SCOMING BACK!! ME AND MY GIRL TALK ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME. THE ENTIRE PURPOSE OF THE SHOW IS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!


	I like the fact that it is based on real people. I especially liked that it shows that the "hero" isn't perfect and those that help him are, like many recovering addicts, suseptable to falling and relapsing.


	The Cleaner is a true way of showing what an addict is like I would love to meet the cast and would love to meet the real Wiiliam Banks. The main part of helping people with addiction is being able to understand and know what they are going through. Personally I believe you have to be an addict to help an addict. I would work with Mr.William Banks in a heart beat. I also am in recovery and have been for six years. This show is very real for me and many many others. It is my favorite show because of the honesty and the reality in the show. Great Job Please keep it up. To the real William Banks God bless you. We need more of us who care.


	The story is done with respect for the addicts and I would imagine holds true to the real william banks who the series is based on. Its compelling to watch the real time stuggle between the husband, wife and kids to forgive and move on from the times that preceeded them while William was in rehab and jail.. I am on the family side of addiction with two brother's having gone through it, married (and now divorced) from an alcoholic husband and have two best friends who are recoving addicts. With all this it has kept me from even trying drugs in my long life time because I know what it can do to a family. I believe "The Cleaner" protrays that very well.


	There is something very honest about the way he handles the addict ...people have no clue just how bad it can really get...and the only way thru it is to set boundaries-no gray areas the addict can worm his way thru. My BF doesb't understand why I like these shows, but he has never been addicted toa substance like me. For me it is a reminder of what I don't want in my life!!


	I like the intense character portrayed by Bratman; he makes the character believable & relatable. I also like the actress who plays his wife; she has an amazing ability to portray the wife who's been thru it all & is afraid of future disappointment even though her husband is on a personal mission to help others overcome many forms of addiction, & has a certain amount of pride & hope in her husband. THe storyline itself is fabulous; not many on tv focus on God or those who rely on Him for wisdom, guidance & strength the way these characters obviously do. COMPLETELY refreshing!


	It's hard to pin it down to one thing, but I'll try. I like the how the show portrays the raw, painful aspects of addiction. It not only depicts the struggles faced by the addicts; it delves into the conflicts and damage caused in family and personal relationships.
