"P-51! Cadillac of the sky!"
OH GOD MAKE IT STOP!!! Hot branding irons, ancient water torture, toothpicks under my fingernail, anything... just don't make me watch another episode of this horrid show! In a 15 second commercial it was funny but a TV show? That was the worst 24 minutes of television I've seen in a long time, and I thought K-Ville was bad! I'd rather have the Journeyman take me back to the time cavemen and leave me there then to watch another episode of this show! They just strung one lame stereotype after another and another and just kept it going - there was nothing funny AT ALL in this show...weak, Oh so weak...
The only thing that kept me from gouging my eyes out with a hot poker than to continue watching was Kaitlin Doubleday... very easy on the eyes...
So far I really like this show, it's Quantum Leap without the body snatching.
Moon Bloodgood's character of Dan's ex who had supposedly died 9 years earlier only to find out that she's still alive and somehow traveling through time herself adds some great curiosity dynamics to the show... where has she been? What does she do? What's her connection? etc... Hopefully the writers give you enough information to keep it interesting but also leave enough mystery to keep it interesting...
This weeks episode sucked Dan back to the cabin of an airplane in the 1970's and they didn't hold back on any 70's stereotype! Sexy stewardesses in mini skirts serving cans of Tab in a smoke filled cabin with "Get Down Tonight" by KC & The Sunshine Band blaring while people drank, talked, and walked around like it was a disco. Little kids playing with toy guns while doctors drank scotch and everybody oblivious to the needs of a pregnant woman in labor...
...and speaking of labor - they just had to so the woman's water breaking all over their feet and the floor (and now I'll share that image with you!) ... ahhhhh!
Eh, what can I say? Prison Break is Prison Break, it's about as realistic as an old Twilight Zone episode... What I'd like to know is what's up with Sarah? Budget cuts on the show or are they planning some kind of twist? They have yet to show her face. You see her in the photos but every time they've "shown" her and LJ (who have both been kidnapped) you see LJ's face but they never show Sarah. Only the back of her head or her legs - never her face. So are they just using a stand-in for her when shooting the show or are they not showing her face as part of the show's plot... Hmmmmm...
...back of her head when talking to Michael on the phone...
...just her feet and legs when getting into the van... Hmmmmm....
...and this? Well, this is just disturbing...Much better this week!
Sad little Hiro, unable to take credit and kiss the "princess"
...and this little piggie went "wee, wee, wee" all the way home!
Claire's toe growing back... nice!
OK, so I can't fully pass judgment on this show yet but it's not looking good... I'm actually in the middle of watching this as I'm typing this but so far... the whole TV cliche thing where someone is giving something incredible, something most people would pay money to have and she gets pissed about it, think of the alternative. She's in an accident, loses her arms, an eye, both her legs and who knows how bad her other injuries are and she is pissed that not only did they give her prosthetic limbs that not only look good but are bionic! Quit yer bitchin' and enjoy it! Oh, you don't like it you ungrateful little wench? Well, lets take off the shiny new limbs and the special little healing microbes and lets see how you like life then...
I love Katee Sackhoff in Battlestar Galactica and I noticed that according to imdb.com that shes's only in 2 episodes of this show which I hope is true because I want to see her return to Battlestar which is one of the more brilliantly show ever written. I know that they "killed" her off according to BG but there was no visual proof so I'm expecting her to make a comeback.
Hiro's "hero" turns out to be a fast talking English con man - of course I'm sure Hiro will show him the error of his ways and compel him into becoming a better person and becoming the "hero" he's meant to be - why do I say this? Because it's the cliche thing to do and this show has no real imagination...
Hmmm... they don't usually stick a sexy-chickie-baby like this into a show unless they plan on expanding the character... love interest for Hiro of the reason for the English samurai to change his selfish ways - the way this show plays I see it only going one of these two ways....
O-MY-GOD! Is it possible to make a show any worse that this? They took the oldest stereotypical TV cop characters and wrapped it around a pretentious and preachy "save New Orleans" premise and then threw in a dash of absolute ridiculousness!
WHY WHY WHY DO I WATCH THIS SHOW? I've complained from the very beginning and yet I keep watching - WHY? It's so bad, so predictable... the premise and circumstances are so ridiculous that it's laughable... Wentworth commits a crime to get into prison to break his brother out (I son't go back into all the ridiculousness of seasons 1 & 2) and now big bro is out of prison scott-free and little bro is now in a Mexican prison, a Mexican prison that seems to be have every other nationality other than Mexicans. A prison basically with the plot from the movie "No Escape" where the prisoners are the worst of the worst that they are left to fend for themselves. Not only does Mr. Schofield somehow get thrown into this "wort of the worst" prison but so does Bellick, T-Bag, Mahone (you;d think that an ex FBI agent would have some connections ) THEY ALL END UP IN THE SAME PLACE!!! And why is Bellick walking around looking like Quazi Moto put through a blender?
