I would assume that means more activity than is necessary for the storyline progression.

My wife likes the show (or rather, the head FBI dude), but it really just doesn't do much for me.

The last 2-3 episodes of Season 1 it finally stopped being a "pick a tattoo and solve the crime" and continued back to the original story arc.

I have never been a real big fan of those type of crime dramas (NCIS, CSI, L&O, etc) which is why I started to lose interest in Blindspot. It did turn it around in the last few episodes however.

Anyone watch the leftovers? I think that's a damn good show on HBO essentially no one knows about

Sometimes the "slow reveal" as to what the plot is works, but often not. The show is ok, but the plot definitely suffers because they've revealed too little of the conspirators.

My wife likes the show too, but more for the girl than any of the guys....

I know about it and plan to watch it, but haven't yet. I do have several friends who love it.

I watched both seasons. Show is completely messed up, but I liked it.

Yeah leftovers is weird. I like it, but a lot of people do not.

I only watched the first season. I enjoyed it, but definitely fucked up and not a very "happy" show. I've heard the 2nd season is worth the watch, maybe I'll get on that next.

I finished Jessica Jones and I thought the whole season was really good. I am jazzed for season two. My roommate and I are starting Daredevil season two soonish.

I also decided to watch One Tree Hill as my new lunchtime series, lol. Should take me about 38 weeks.

Wife and I started watching Quantico on Hulu, maybe on episode 7ish (can't remember).

Its pretty good, enjoy the "back and forth" in time aspect as something a little different for a TV crime drama.

Nat Geo started a series last night called No Man Left Behind. Last night was the 'real' story of Black Hawk Down. Was pretty good. One of those guys, Keni Thomas (now is a country singer) came to our school and spoke a couple years ago.


It was pretty good show. Tuesday's at 9pm NatGeo.

See where the spinoff of SOA is a go for the Mayans MC. Should be much better than Sutter's last show...Bastard Executioner.

Wait ... where did you hear they were doing a Season 2 of Jessica Jones?

Make no mistake, I liked the show quite a bit, and it was certainly open for more show to develop. I just hadn't heard anything since it ended.

They are doing a season 2, probably season 3. Daredevil season 3. Probably 2 seasons of Luke cage and iron first at least and then at least a season of a joint one.

Watched the first episode of The Night Of last night.

I liked it so far, I'll keep at it.
