Agree.My wife (who hasn't been watching the show) was sitting in the couch next to me. About halfway through the episode I said to her "You should like this show. The only thing missing is that they are not vampires". This episode reminded me of True Blood or something similar.
Yeah, new boss is totally in on it, since he sent Mike to that hotel. However, it was only because Ryan talked him into hacking the boss's email, so I also assume Ryan is totally in on it too and they're both working together to set up Mike. Except Mike's probably a deep mole for Carroll who didn't want to blow his cover with Ryan or Roderick, not realizing that all three are on the same side. Maybe they're setting up Parker?'Jayrok said:
Funny thing is that I didn't dislike this last episode as much as the last couple. I agree, however, that they go and have that pretty decent fight scene and instead of just having Hardy and the FBI lady get there as the bad guys are leaving (they could kill the same amount of red shirt bad guys), which would be believable, they do the silliness we saw. The FBI lady is 50 feet from the getaway car and instead of staking it out and killing all the bad guys, she is somewhere not close enough to back Hardy up and not close enough to see/stop anyone from getting away.I would have been OK with the sex and choke/sex and the plastic love kill if they hadn't botched yet another FBI attempt to get the bad guys.Also, gotta love that Roderick a small town sheriff is able to know everything about every FBI agent there is. I am assuming he had to get details on every single FBI agent not knowing exactly who would be assisting Hardy. There are only 3 things that have really bothered me, the lawyer's actions, the ridiculous ineffectiveness of every FBI assault/perimeter/etc. and the cult's ability to anticipate every single possible action by the FBI. We got rid of the lawyer, so let's see the FBI actually do something well and the cult make a mistake in anticipating moves.'SmoovySmoov said:
Watching this show reminds me of watching V a couple years ago, where the V (Followers) always know everything about everything and are unstoppable at all times.
And he's been on it the whole time!
I would walk away. Too bad, I'm already invested.
its decent but doesn't get better. Don't waste ur time
No need, the plot hasn't advanced in any way in which you would need to watch the interim episodes to be caught up to where it is now.
Nah its pretty much 6 pages of #####ing
I continue to watch this show because it is so utterly ridiculous.
What's the biggest complaint? Bacon, the fake Hannibal Lecter or the paint-by-numbers writing?
The 24 style cliche driven story writing. The fact that the fbi is ######ed. Kevin bacon and the killer are the only redeeming parts.
I agree, Roderick is awesome....finally Bacon kills someone before they can get away when he killed Roderick's g-friend. So is the 2nd person that the nanny's boyfriend kills going to be the nanny for leaving him?
I hope so, he looked pissed.Thought it was a decent episode, but again perimiter issues. The lady gets thrown through the window (not sure I would buy that little girl having the strength assuming those glass windows are pretty strong) around 10 floors up and the two cops can't cover the elevators and stairs? How many exits could there be?
I didn't mind that show as much as this one. Pretty easy to think aliens with way more advanced tech can anticipate or even read minds. Even tonight, what did they do, break down encrypted messages on secure lines and figured out where Claire is? Didn't they kill off the techie guy last week?
Yeah, that was dumb.My favorite part was when the dude tells black chick this woman is out to kill her. Then he sees the woman killer and walks right up to her and says "you leave her alone."
It was pretty funny, why not tackle her on the way by instead of just getting stabbed? Also, loved how the little meek girl turned into super killer throwing people through windows and shooting nail guns with precision.Thank goodness it was a cordless nail gun that someone left there assuming no one would take it. Oh and thank goodness the construction site with cordless nail guns was wide open to the public next to a party, no liability issues there.At least, they finally caught someone with some good detective work. I was waiting for the girl to pull her jacket over her head and then with the entire FBI unit wondering where she went, she walked through them like Harry Potter with his invisibility cloak.
It's nice to see the bad guys aren't always getting away, but Roderick's girlfriend was another issue... She couldn't seriously believe Bacon wouldn't shoot. I was sure she was wearing a vest and would show up behind Bacon in the search of the building.
Way too much of a stretch of the imagination to believe the FBI couldn't stop the music and take over the mic. Yeah, let's just keep the party going as people are potentially being murdered in the crowd. I second the "hey, let's just leave our nail gun sitting here for tomorrow" thought.'stbugs said:That's just about right.
I would love to see a parody of this show. That would be my first contribution to the script. My second would be when an FBI agent picks up the nail gun and accidentally shoots the girl the saved and then puts it down and slowly walks away.'stbugs said:
Didn't you see the door stop and latch that was going to protect him? And send two agents out scouting, but don't dare tell them 2 shady guys just entered the hotel.I really wish I hadn't started watching this as I'm in now and watching because .. I don't know why.. guess to see how it ends.But .. they don't actually pay people to write this crap do they
Oh and the guys who have basically been told, don't fail this time or you are dead, runaway and jump in the car, are about to drive away and it just happens Claire runs after them.. GREAT TIMING!!!It just gets worse by the second now.. I heard a noise in the basement... I'll leave my dieing friend on the floor with a woman who iswhile I search the noise .... and now they waste time with tom boy & Jacob all lovey dovey again. At this point all you can do is
I'm suspending a ton of disbelief to finish this show because my wife likes it. So I took it as they lured her to the car, not that they were leaving.Oh and the guys who have basically been told, don't fail this time or you are dead, runaway and jump in the car, are about to drive away and it just happens Claire runs after them..

Again, with a boulder of salt, I figured the militia guy that Ryan shot outside the hotel planted it when he grabbed her.
Not sure how.. Hardy hears a noise, tells her to stay, hands her a gun and runs to locate the noise.. She then decides that saving the life of Hardy's friend isn't worth sticking around for and runs out the opposite door then Hardy did.. It wasn't like they stood outside waving a picture of her kid.. Then again, the way this show has gone I wouldn't have been shocked if they had done that.I'm suspending a ton of disbelief to finish this show because my wife likes it.

Is it an affair if she isn't married to Joe?The wife and I gave up on this crapfest a few weeks ago when the tomboy seduced Joe at the house. "I love my wife." "ok, I'll try again in about an hour." "I love my wife." "She isn't here." "Ok, give me some."We turned the channel and canceled future recordings right there. It's not enough that the writing is crappy, they have to thrown in dumb, unrelated sexual situations here and there. Why does Ryan have to be a guy who had an affair with Joe's wife?
I don't know. I thought they were still married before Joe went to prison and Ryan was with her. I may be wrong. I thought Joe said Claire cheated with Ryan.Is it an affair if she isn't married to Joe?The wife and I gave up on this crapfest a few weeks ago when the tomboy seduced Joe at the house.

Maybe she's tired of people dying on her behalf, and she figures this is the only way to stop it? Hardy kind of alluded to this when talking about keeping Claire from being able to watch the media or she'd come out of hiding to stop the assault on all Claire Matthews. That would be my best guess. I always tell myself I'm done watching it, but then they end every episode with "only 3 episodes left". So it makes me excited the end is near, and then next Monday when everyone is already asleep and can't find anything on TV, I end up watching it on the dvr >< I really should just cancel the recording and read the wiki after the last episode.Not sure how..

No, I understand the "Why" she got into the car.. It was the "How" that wasMaybe she's tired of people dying on her behalf, and she figures this is the only way to stop it?

.. The guys were in their car and looked to be about to speed away, when out of the blue Claire comes running up behind them and jumps in the car.
The problem is they built this up to be a cable quality series on network television. It was supposed to be an intelligent and well done thriller. It is neither really. It's even stupider than a lot of things already on network television.
before it reached the midway point of the first season.
I really want to like it but every week they go further further into
