I'm glad that I'm not in charge of some of these shows as the villains would be absolutely ruthless. The hero wouldn't make it to the third episode.<br /><br />@Ryan No worries, I wasn't really interested in it to begin with and I have other better TV to watch.Simon MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14749383583517044214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5256317.post-51577010037381416902009-11-26T09:01:07.196-06:002009-11-26T09:01:07.196-06:00I think you made comment of this to me in one cont...I think you made comment of this to me in one context or another a while back, and when watching this show, it really bugs me in particular. I think because its so half-baked and so directly affects the story.<br /><br />And, Simon, I don't want to get 100% negative.

We have a generation of TV writers who grew up watching mediocre TV shows about doctors, lawyers, and cops, and they write as if watching those shows constituted significant research into the field. This is why lawyers on TV make frivolous and ridiculous objections (but do so with earnest indignation), this is why police officers and FBI agents routinely violate long recognized constitutional protections without apparently realizing (thereby threatening the conviction they so sincerely pursue), and why doctors so often commit malpractice or violate ethical cannons without consequence. In V, just as in FlashForward, some low level FBI agent is the protagonist, when there are so many other angles to explore, but the TV writers think the federal agent is the only way to do this and that and the other.JMDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5256317.post-74901497925216577562009-11-26T08:33:18.974-06:002009-11-26T08:33:18.974-06:00I have not watched the show.
