Clarice - CBS - US Pace (**Spoilers**)

Agent Coulson

Starting to find it's feet now and the season arc moving along at a good pace.

Also doing a nice job at showing the PTSD effects from the Buffalo Bill case

Agent Coulson

Another enjoyable episode this will.



I wasn't expecting Rodney McKay to show up I don't think I've seen him in anything since Stargate Atlantis ended.

He was also in 'Dark Matter'. Only watch 15mins of episode, need to watch the rest latter.

As soon as she said she was a twin, I expected the switch

I forgot this was set in 1993.

Taking a break now until 6th May.

I've alway thought this to be an alright show. Like a grittier 'Special Victims Unit', but its not The Wire by any means.
Like alot of modern mid-level US shows, they've flirted with racial / wokishness, but for the most part I thought they were managing to resist their urges to shoehorn those topics into the story (ala The Good Fight).

Well, whoever was keeping the writers in line must have taken the week off as we went full-woke this week.

It seems every non-white officer in the FBI is being discriminated against (its a wonder they got the job at all in that case). :rolleyes:
And now we have a trans character -

giving Clarice grief for solving the Buffalo Bill murder... wtf? :rolleyes:

Not sure if its a show I'll retrun to next week if this is the direction they're taking.

CastorTroy

Not sure what happened with Kal Penn's character. He seems to only turn up occasionally.

CastorTroy

38 posts the whole season.

While it did feel a wee bit rushed compared to the pacing of previous episodes, it was a good (series?) finale.

The lack of any real cliffhanger is good as well.

Mr E

I thought the finale was very good. Decent season overall, but not fantastic.

Glad it's a self contained story because it's not likely to come back. It was the lowest rated show on CBS this season.

Frank Grimes

I thought it ended well, but the season as a whole was a bit of a chore to get through at times for me.

Agent Coulson

Overall a weak enough show that was handcuffed from the beginning with not being able to mention Lecter.

You can have a Lecter show without mentioning Starling, However Starling the FBI agent was influenced so much by Lecter that not being able to mention him at all hurts the character growth of Starling in the series.


Also her accent was just so off putting I just couldn't get past it.

Snake Plisken

Looks like it won't be returning for season 2

It was ok for one season and no cliffhangers but it wasn't a Hannibal and likely people would have compared it to that
It just fizzled as it went on and is anybody that interested in what Clarice is up to
