It’s pretty obvious by the the episode title, The return of Eddie, that Carrie’s ex-husband would return in this episode. Personally, I thought one episode with Eddie was enough of that storyline, so I was disappointed to see him return. I get that the writers are trying to give us more of Carrie’s past but I think they are taking it in the wrong direction here. The episode before this one also included another man from Carrie’s past. That is no longer a new subject as every time we turn around there’s another guy from Carrie’s past coming back to complicate her life. Is it just me or does she just seem to throw herself at every man she meets? Now this might be a hard critique of the show but it’s coming from the fact that I once really loved the show, the characters, the partner dynamic, and Carrie’s special gift. I just keep hoping we will get a glimpse of what the show used to be like. Not necessarily as dark or serious as the first season, but maybe a mix between seasons 1, 2 and 3.
I’ve been waiting for a really great episode of Unforgettable. I loved this show from the beginning and there have been episodes in the past that blew me away, not even mentioning how great the characters were. But, with this season I’m worried that if they don’t give us more substance this show will be canceled for the third time. What I’ve seen so far this season has me believing that this isn’t even the show that I originally fell in love with. Am I the only one that thinks Unforgettable is starting to become forgettable?
