"Pilot/Ernest Cobb" Air Date 1-16-12
If you are already on Alcatraz would you really need a ticket to get back off. I strikes me as odd that you would need a ticket to leave. Is it just a trap to get people to pay more money? It's not like you can stay there if you don't want to pay.
I don't think cops get to pick their new partner. That seems like more of the kind of thing that is assigned to them. Maybe it has something to do with her last partner dying, but even that seems far fetched.
I don't think a cop would care if they just arrived at a murder scene and then the feds showed up and took over. It just means that the cop has one less case to clear. It's not like she had been working it for months and was invested, she got there before the feds by like five minutes.
And would she really steal something from the crime scene. Why does she care about this case? And even if she does care is it really worth getting indited for interfering with a federal investigation?
As much as it seems that I'm ragging on the show, it was alright. It's the kind of show I would normally watch in the background while doing something else like reading or doing things online. The kind of show where you don't really have to pay attention to still get what's going on.
I did think about pointing out the "lost numbers" in the show. IE: The code to the jail at the end of the episode was 6323 63 is the year they went missing 23 was Jack's number from Lost. There are 46 missing guards, there were 46 original survivors from the plane crash on Lost. But I decided that I didn't want to pay that close of attention to this show. But if you pay attention I'm sure you can find them, and watch for the number 47 JJ Abrams loves the number 47.
Okay, now on to the second half.
Why would they be called to a sniper shooting? At that point they had no way of knowing if there was any connection to the 63ers. It's not like on Fringe where they know to go because something unworldly has happened. As far as anyone knew this was just a crazy sniper shooting.
Wouldn't the people coming back have some crazy culture shock? They have been gone for almost 50 years, so much has changed and so far they are just running around like everything is normal. Did they have surveillance cameras in the 60's? Would Jack even know that the thing in his cell was a camera, or would the whole concept of a video spying device be foreign to him.
You'd think that Rebecca would dress more like a professional. It's basically her first day on the job and she's running around in a low cut top that looks more like the kind of thing you'd bum around in on the weekend then something you would wear to work.
The blood on this show seems too fake. I don't know if it was the coloring or the amount that came flying out, but every time someone was shot all I could think about was how fake the blood looked.
Sam Neil's character is named Emerson Houser, this episodes bad's last name was Cobb. All I could think about was Emerson Cod, and all that did was make me miss Pushing Daisies.
I was kind of thinking that one of the good guys was going to have been among the 63s. But I didn't think it was going to be the Indian girl. I wonder how well accepted a foreign female doctor would have been in the early 60s.
"Going Global" Air Date 2-19-12
What would you try and write down in your notebook about making those noodles? I think I'd see him spin the dough around a couple of times and just sit down and cry, because there would be no way that I could do it.
Why did they learn how to prepare both noodle dishes if they were only going to have to make one of them? Usually they go off with their coach and learn the dishes separately. It would have to give an advantage to one of the teams, I'm just not sure which team it would be.
Sherrill seems unteachable. She seems to think that she is a decent cook and above learning anything from Bobby and that if she just does what she always does she will impress him with her cooking skills.
Is Anthony this seasons Joshie? Anne seems to be treating him in slightly the same light.
It's only the second week, most of these contestants are having enough troubles recreating a dish, should they really be trying to make an inspired dish on their own?
The baskets with all the different spices and seasonings seem to give the contestants more than enough rope to hang themselves.
Wait I'm confused was there a recipe to go with the different country that each player was assigned? Some of them seemed like they were winging it on how to spice up their meatballs, while others turned in the exact same thing, like the two that had Sweden and they both made a pink sauce.
If there are only two judges and each judge is also the team leader for the two different teams, you would think there could have been more problems with each judge wanting their respective team to win.
It seems that winning the first challenge got them nothing. You'd think they would have let the winners pick which country they wanted for the second challenge.
Bob got a hat. That's a good thing he must have been getting hair everywhere.
Sending both Rachael and Sherrill home had to have been easy choices for the chefs.
I didn't pay much attention to raw this week, but there were a few things I wanted to mention.
Hell in a Cell make HHH/Undertaker slightly more bearable, even though it almost certainly cements it as the main event. And adding Rock/Cena as co-main event means both heavyweight championship matches will be mid card matches, and WWE wonders how why they don;t have any new young stars.
C.M. Punk will have a nice long career as an announcer after he is done wrestling. More than likely it could rival Jesse Ventura or Bobby Heenan if given the leeway to let him be himself.
Another thing about Punk, when he was coming out to do commentary, there was a girl in a punk shirt standing right by the announce table. He went out of his way to go over and shake her hand, and she was so star struck you would have thought she had just met the Beatles. It was a nice touch and you could tell it had made the girls year. I rewound and watched it a couple of times because it was so nice.
Decided to find a video of it.
