I liked the news announcement since the actor did a great job delivering it, but it followed by Chase's announcement was just too much exposition. It might've been better to find some of that out in next season's first episode.

It was nice work setting her up as mild mannered and non-military. She slipped into the background and you just assumed that the Graves family were the aggressors.
He would be a great candidate for the Doctor if iZombie ended and he was willing to move back to the UK.
Seriously what I love about this show is that the leads (at least Liv, Clive and Ravi, I'm not so sure about Major getting re-scratched by the bad guys) actually care about the common good and other people. It's something that always bothered me about the original comic.
It's actually the opposite for me. The original series was easy to bingewatch. This is much easier to pause even within the episode, maybe do some cleaning etc then come back a week later.
I was kind of annoyed at him and the mom for having him run across the street, even if she got the go ahead. I know it's a small town, but there's a reason you cross slower holding their hand….
What kind of state would Audrey even be in? She was in the bank right next to the bomb when it went off and blew the whole building up.
I was really glad when we started seeing some familiar things like the Double R and jokes so that there were some things to care about, but it really seems to have a lot less forward motion than the original seasons. The Dougie parts by themselves are kind of interesting coming from a grandmother who has Alzheimers…
Also horses are domesticated while deer/elk/other game really aren't. They are now genetically disposed to rely on and obey humans. There is the issue of 'farm' domesticated animals which aren't usually as affectionate, but that's a whole other kettle of fish.
I'll just wait for the upcoming apocalypse where we have to eat our pets and corpses. Shouldn't be too much longer.
The dialogue seems super slow at some points. It's odd- like watching actors who can't remember their lines. It could be interesting as a technique I guess but it's really distracting.
Since it hasn't been mentioned— is anyone else sad about Michael Ontkean being unable/unwilling to participate? Coop and Truman had such a great dynamic and I hope he's not secretly sick like Bowie was. Apparently he was initially going to do it and then had to pull out for undisclosed reasons.
I definitely like the little bit of wackiness— it makes the dark stuff seem darker by comparison and it shows off what made Twin Peaks special. I can switch to practically any channel and find a dark drama about a murdered person. Having the people investigating have human qualities makes it more interesting.
I am currently disappointed with the way they're handling the female agent. She could easily be the no-nonsense counterpoint to all of the naked 20 somethings, but instead they point out she's a sexy lady in almost every scene she's in. This is gender stuff that Silence of the Lambs was talking about 36 years ago…
I like to find out how well a movie is plotted. If it's done really badly, then it can detract from the watching experience. I usually try to look at multiple reviews and see if they make the same points. It's certainly easier to judge than "are the characters funny/likeable". It's pretty much meaningless if it's shot…
I mean, they've mentioned him taking a hula hoop class so that is somewhat consistent with his character. He's a man who likes to stay in shape. But he should are about procedure.
Yup. The "Cop-Con" episode I think was the best example of this so far. The department completely ignored his orders and embarrassed him and the 99. He should've been FURIOUS, not felt bad he didn't get to go to the party.
I mean, that's the second part of how the job was dumb. The guy was asking if he would come out and work in the fields (I guess as a farmer?) and Bill Mahr said "Ha! Of course I, a white rich urban man, would never do that. < Insert horribly offensive racial joke here>
At least season 2 or 3. Holt is supposed to be feeling more comfortable, but he should be generally the one advocating for professionalism.
He says it so sincerely too!
