Human Target

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

It's about time. They had it listed over a month ago, but postponed it for some reason. Probably waiting for its competition to go to reruns.

Hmmm, Season 2... apparently they decided to end the story line from Season 1 about the boss/book for now, and add 2 women.

I'm about halfway through and it works, but doesn't. It does add a bit more to the show and gives it new characters to work with, but it also takes away from the humor and feeling of them being one team against the world.

Put this show on FX, and I think it'd be a lot better.

So far, I'm 3 episodes in (I think, whatever ep Baptiste shows back up), and this has been my favorite. I think it's cuz the little girl isn't there. Her dialogue tends to suck.

And trading her for Baptiste is a win ever day.

Still a good series, IMO, although it is dipping a little too far into the romantic drama well. Need to shake that mess off and get back to what made it good.

The writing/directing needs more showing, less telling. I don't need a the characters to be my narrator.
