Persons Unknown is about a bunch of strangers who are kidnapped and find themselves in a strange and empty town.
Truly this is all it is about, nothing more. More like a mix between Big Brother and SAW II, but in much worse. It is poorly acted and the story is boring as hell. Even after 4 episodes it doesn’t get more interesting.
My rating: 1.5/5
Aaron Paul, Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series - Emmy Awards 2010
I’m so happy for Aaron. He is one of the best actor on the surface of this earth and he has the chance to play in one of the best TV series ever: Breaking Bad.
Breaking Bad, season 4, will not aired before July 2011. Vince Gilligan wish to have more time for him and the his team of writers to complete the scenario before they begin to shoot in January. This is the way to go Vince. No compromise.
Flashpoint
I was looking the other day for another good TV series I haven’t seen. I have found Flashpoint on TV.com and begun to watch it on iTunes.
Flashpoint is about an elite tactical unit, called the Strategic Response Unit (SRU), within a Canadian metropolitan police force. The SRU are tasked to resolve extreme situations that regular officers are not trained to handle including hostage-taking, bomb threats and heavily armed criminals. Equipped with high-tech tools and a cache of weapons and explosives, members use negotiation tactics and intuition to try to avoid the use of force.
First it is Canadian and I’m truly impressed by the quality of the show. It’s been five shows that I have watched now and I can’t find anything wrong to say about it. It’s well written and played. It is certainly one of the most emotional and entertaining cop shows that I have ever seen.
3 seasons of Flashpoint have already been produced.
Boardwalk Empire
This new HBO series produced/directed by Scorsese looks to be very VERY promising. To add to your agenda, septembre 19.
True Blood - Season 3 - The King, Russell Edgington
The first season was good, the second was boring if it is not for Jason Stackhouse and his involvement in the church of the “Fellowship of the Sun”, but the third season rocks like hell. It is hard to wait a week for the next episode.
Dexter: It’s Already Over (Season 5 Promo)
You never have seen Dexter on this angle. So powerful, you can almost cry.
I’m currently reading the Dexter novels. It is surprising how similar and different it is from the TV series, but it is certainly very good.
I’m very happy that ShowTime have decided to continue with the Dexter Early Cuts in fall to make us discover a bit more about the Dark Passenger before the season 5 begins.
Dexter Season 5 Trailer
Season begins September 26th. God, how I would be able to wait until then?
Jason Stakhouse in True Blood, Season 3
God! I didn’t know I would have missed him so much. I do not care about any other character in this show other than him. If you ask me, he is the show. I think he’s even the best character ever created in a TV series. If he ever dies, I simply quit. I even quit TV ;)
Breaking Bad Season 3
The best TV series out there. Vince Gilligan has created a master piece. Thank you for such perfection.
Unanswered LOST Questions
You must admit that after having seeing this video from College Humor, it reminds you of how many inconsistencies and issues there were with the show over the years.
(via Maniacal Rage)
I think the 8th season was the worst season of all. I wonder how I kept watching it up to the end. All this let me remember of the nine seasons of X-Files. At the end it was almost unbearable to watch, but most of us kept watching because we have invest so many times already and had enjoy the originality of the series in its beginning.
Fox and the 24 producers including Kiefer Sutherland are still in discussion if a 9th season of 24 would be aired next year. I can only salute the producers of Lost of having discuss with ABC to end the show after a certain number of episodes. For the sake of the story at some point you need to rap this up before you simply ruined everything. I guess 24 is already beyond this.
Please just kill this series and move on with something original.
