Review

pretty good series so far. wentworth miller strikes me as a good actor, but as the series continues i discovered he basically has one or two modes and that’s it. that said, that’s about all he needs for this character so it works.

they do a good job of ramping up the tension within each show. it’s contrived hysteria of course, but it works and is a fun show. the primary focus here is on plot and entertainment. interplay of characters is next and characterization is last. but, because of the long form format of TV, they are able to insert enough characterization that you actually end up caring.

t-bag is the pedophile southerner who slithers like a snake and always finds a way to stay in the game and keep himself afloat. great character.
