I find it peculiar that yet another supposed good guy/ally turned out the culprit. The next episode continues the same pattern and I wonder if this is the show's way of foreshadowing gabriel going rouge.
I found the entire 'death scene' over dramatic….so many eye rolls there…Nelson just doesn't work for me when he tries to be dramatic….this was an ok episode.
I never said it wasn't predictable, I was merely pointing out the fact that there seems to be a pattern of good guys being responsible for/involved with the crime.
As for the doctor character, I think that there is possibilities there as the writers could definitely make him far more useful (and somewhat remorseful for illegally creating a second improved chip and implanting it into an enemy asset), but I definitely agree on the son character, as other than being the writers obvious vehicle for humor (and failing badly imo) he really doesn't serve any purpose... I'd vote to boot him out and keep the humor bits with Riley/Gabriel, as their chemistry is really what's keeping me tuned in right now
Finally watched the ep and gave it a "good", mainly on the chemistry of the Riley/Gabriel relationship. The cotw was somewhat interesting, but the weak writing (ie. the laughable lack of protecting the secret of Gabriel by the organization) really needs to improve

I really couldn't have cared if that doctor died. His and his son's characters are next to useless and pretty tedious to put up with.
ReplyDeleteI was hoping he died. I don't think they are completely useless, but the way they "rescued" him it was a forced.

ReplyDeleteOh come on you didn't see that Tyler guy being the villain from the moment they introduced him? :D
ReplyDeleteWas quite obvious ever since he made those weird remarks about Gabriel.

ReplyDeleteyep, I also think it was a good episode because of the chemistry beteween Riley and Gabriel. Hope to see more of it
ReplyDeleteYeah I guess.
ReplyDeleteWell we'll just have to keep watching maybe we can expect a straight up baddie one of these days :D
