Alcatraz
« on: January 19, 2012, 09:57:13 pm »
New show out that launches with a double episode week.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1728102/

Basically it's about Alcatraz inmates that disappeared in 1963 during the closure of the prison. All of the sudden, they start reappearing in 2011 carrying out revenge etc. A female police, the fat kid from Lost and Sam Neil buddies up to take this on, but it's not necessarily what it seems like..!

Check it out and see what you think.

Personally I was really looking forward to this, but the first two episodes have kind of put me off. Seems like a strange mix of Prison Break, Lost and [insert random cop tv show about partnership here]. The acting from everyone else than Sam Neil also annoys me a bit, so far. It's a bit.. hmm, how do I put this.. like actors from a bad 90's tv-show. I'm not really buying it! :)

I think JJabrams had nothing to do with this serie apart of giving his name for marketing purposes.

And this serie is bad, so bad. It's like quintessence of whats stupid in series.

Not the greatest series. I am watching it just because I normally run out of stuff to watch. It is one of those shows you have on your other screen while u browse the net imo.
Sometimes, when I'm alone and can't sleep at night, I get naked, rub Vasoline all over my body and pretend I'm a slug in the kitchen. Ever tried it?

I think this show is OK. The lead girl makes it easier to watch.

The plot is OK IMO, but I am terrified of how far we will go without learning more. End of E3 was basically the end of E2 -- wonder how long they'll drag it out.
Now I run a tech website.

Yeah goza, this isnt too bad. I am not gonna throw rocks at my screen when it is on. If each episode is the same, then I can see it getting boring very quickly
