I just watched the second ep of Castle last night. Agree with all the meh. Becket being drawn to this mystery at the intensity she was seemed forced and stupid. BUT she was in the clips for next week seeming like normal Becket, so maybe it gets done?
Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
Caught up on the first two episodes of The Player. That show is fun.
I totally missed the existence of that!
I barely heard about it before it started and I have no idea why - poor promotion or me living under a rock seem equally plausible.But it's good!
It's a John Rogers show which is why I wanted to watch it.
That's pretty much why I started watching it. And why I am confused about not hearing about it. I must be subscribed to the wrong blog. Anyway, it's definitely got that pulp thing going on. And Wesley Snipes appears to be having a good time.
Because "Limitless" proved so much better than its ads suggested, I took a chance on"Blindspot" My warning: "Blindspot" is at least as bad as the publicity suggest, maybe worse. The "clue" containing tattoos on amnesiac Taylor Shaw are an excuse to squeeze in as many nude shots of Jaimie Alexander as possible. Fir variety the nude scenes are punctuated by poorly staged gun battles, explosions, and hand t0 hand combat. There is also intermittent manpain on the part of a department store mannequin er I mean Sullivan Stapleton.
Goodness, Stapelton's line readings are some of the most stilted, wooden mumblings I've ever heard. I want to like the show for Alexander's sake, 'cause I love her as Sif. But Blindspot is making that difficult.
Oh god, glad I read that, I was about to give Blindspot a chance.
I find Blindspot to be a good background noise procedural, which pretty much fits my needs for TV at the moment. Anything that requires too much attention is hard to follow while taking care of ltc. I didn't recognize the lead as the same actress that plays Sif!
