Caught up on the first two episodes of The Player. That show is fun.
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
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!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Jaimie Alexander is pretty good in it, as is Ashley Johnson, but Sullivan Stapleton is just terrible, and he brings the whole show down with him. It's also a really stupid premise.
