My TV Musings

Have I told you how much I like Viola Davis? She portrays Marlow, a dedicated FBI officer tracking the good guys and she’s probably the only one who believes Tyler and Jay might not be involved with the Drexler Museum bombing. Or at least she’s one of the only agents who won’t shoot first and ask questions later.

Throughout the show, I wondered if her partner was going to narc Marlow out when she continued to work outside the scope of orders given by their boss, Chambers.

When Jay sneaked into the vehicle being towed I was relieved that the driver wasn’t an FBI agent, because if he was, he would have tried harder to catch him.

It really bothered me when Marlow went to visit Joseph. I mean, she KNEW he was probably the guy who gave the order to blow up the Drexler Museum in the first place. Good thing those walls were paper thin! Poor Marlow, now she’s got another death on her hands.

They actually thought that Tyler was working with his dad when just the opposite was true. I mean how would you feel if your dad told you that he was gonna have you killed for being too weak?

This show was a nail-biter right up until the end. We weren’t sure if Will was working with the bad guys just to get out of the business or if he was trying to save his “friends”, whom he had conned from the very beginning. At one point it looked as if he were going to turn them over to the leader of the bad guys, Homeland Security Agent Jack Freed.

I like how Will deals with everything - when in danger, just hit the guy in the head with your gun. And, in the end, Will came through and saved our guys, and it looked like they were going to be able to turn over not only Jack Freed, but also the painting which had proof there was an evil organization working within the U.S. Government. But, of course, this was not meant to be the series ender, it just got cancelled. So just when you thought the newspaper people would find Freed and the painting inside the limo waiting outside the newspaper office, the limo blows up - with everything in it!

So our guys, joined now by Will, watch as the limo blows up and they realize they have to start all over, gathering evidence to clear Jay and Tyler and convince the FBI that Will no longer wants to be a part of the evil organization.

Add this show to your list of DVDs to buy when you want to watch an action series that never wraps up!
