Although, I must admit, I still have a soft spot for teeanged!God. I think it's the snark. And he and Joan have great chemistry.
From the preview, it looks like he's in next week's episode, so I'll have to give him another try. Snarky is generally good in my book, so I'm not sure why he didn't quite click with me last time.
The mother and her storyline is especially annoying me at this point. And the police stuff? Is just a bit too pat, too easy.
Yup to both of these, too. I want to like the mom and her story, and I get what they seem to be trying to do with her, but it's not quite clicking for me yet. And the cop stuff, yeah. Too easy. It seems like an afterthought, and a simplistic one at that. I mean, I'm not expecting CSI: Arcadia or anything, but those scenes just aren't at the same level as most of the Joan-centered stuff, and it shows.
I always wanted to see The Chronicle. I'd see it mentioned in my geek magazines and stuff, and it looked like a lot of fun, but I never found anyone to tape it for me. It didn't last long, though, did it? Darn cancellation-happy SciFi Channel.
Maybe Joan will actually stay in Chem, unlike her job, it seems.
Yeah, what happened with that? Or with the serial killer? They just vanished into the Plot Closet. I think Chem has a better chance of sticking around, since Grace, Adam and Luke can be in those scenes too. But I guess we'll see. I just hope the show survives long enough to get the kinks worked out. (Remember the days when you could just watch a new show without assuming that it was going to vanish after every episode? Trigger-happy networks, sheesh.)
