To be fair, Annie's Boobs have not endeared themselves to the audience.

Ohh, I thought the Coach in question was from Cheers.

AW HELL NAW!

I suspect they did, because it doesn't look like Goossen is in after the pilot, and Annie Parisse is joining the show as a regular from episode 2 onwards, in what I'm willing to bet is a substitution for Goossen.

"But the show is fighting from its back by crafting a premise that paints law enforcement as such a profoundly incompetent force that I found myself feeling like the cops almost don't deserve to win if Bacon is the only one who's actually doing any fucking work."

"His "we've all got to be friends" positive attitude is so obsessive that I feel like it can be coming from some very dark place, but he never seems to acknowledge that."

Caffrey's back!

Dane Cook is the lead in two of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life, and I suspect a large part of my enjoyment of Mr. Brooks comes from Cook just flat out playing a smarmy unlikable guy that I don't have to pretend to root for.

My mistake, I wasn't passing judgment on the actual quality of the storyline (which was easily the most disappointing, though not the worst; that honour goes to Lori's speech to Andrea about how she needs to learn her place as a woman and get into the kitchen with all the other ladyfolk), but saying that a story like…

The Sophia arc, for example, I suspect would be…

I'm right there with you on Nikita's excellence, though I'm not averse to the ridiculous tech.

@avclub-de9878e9d33c60263a094abc94fab3f0:disqus It's created and is being run by an ex-CIA officer, so you might want to reconsider the "unrealistic" thing until you've atleast seen a couple of episodes.

"I am a huge Cold War history nerd"

Well, no, because Asia is literally the largest continent in the world, and the Indian Ocean is super-huge too. The island can be anywhere in there that would justify the time difference; it's not 12 hours across the continent and ocean. In fact, based on the fact that Serrat speaks French with the natives, I'd be…

Daytime does stretch across numerous hours in most parts of the world.It can be 9 am in one place, and 3 pm at another, and both places would have ample sunlight.
