Legends Review S1 E3

Hey People,

This will be short since I've already did my extensive review about this show in the other 2 reviews. Instead I just wanted to say I watched it like I said I would. The fact that he was starting his mission right from the beginning is something that I like, which I previously stated before. However, my mind has not changed. This show is still average and unlike the past 2 episodes, this episode couldn't keep my interest in it at all. I actually started to do my homework instead of watching the show. That says a lot right there.

It seems like for this show each episode will dive into his legend more and more until I'm guessing he won't know who he is anymore. This is a bit different than my original guess, but I actually like this setup better.

Even though I may not be into this show not everyone will share my opinion so check the episode yourself and judge. However, this will be the last review I do for Legends as of right now.

Luv ya,

Legends Review S1 E2

Hey People,

So a certain person asked me to checkout episode 2 of Legends claiming that it was better than the pilot. So that's what I did tonight. I watched it and I do have to admit, it is better than the pilot. However, this additional episode doesn't really change my assessment of the show. I still think this show is still too average for Sean Bean. Let me explain.

Like: I did think this case of the week (or should I say two weeks?) is better than the pilot's. I was pulled into the show more and actually cared about what happened to the family involved. I will also admit that I was shocked to the killing of Troy. I did not see that one coming. I was actually waiting for the "I was wearing a bulletproof vest the whole time" or a "Don't leave home without it," but it never came. Man was legit dead. Saw the dead body and everything. I love a show that can take risks like that because that emulates life. Not everyone survives every encounter they have. As long as they keep the dead actually dead, I'm fine with the decision. I hate cop-outs. Of course I also have to mention Morris Chestnut finally showing up. Where were you last time? This episode became instantly better when I saw him on my screen.

Legends Review

Hey People,

So I just watched Legends and guess what? Sean Bean didn't die in the first episode! Yea, we should all celebrate that fact because to be honest that's probably the only thing to celebrate in Legends. Let me explain.

Summary: Sean Bean's character is an undercover FBI agent who clearly has some problems if 3 out of 4 shrinks thinks he was unfit for duty. However, the 4th said he's a natural in deep undercover aka a Legend.

This show was surprisingly average. Why is that surprising? Well because Sean Bean is in it and I don't associate Sean Bean with average. I do however associate Sean Bean with death so I'll always watch out for that regardless if I watch this show or not. Nothing really stood out in the pilot except for the performance of Sean Bean with his undercover persona. I think he might give Tatiana Maslany a run for her money in dawning new characters, but it's still too early to tell.

The Last Ship Review

Hey People,

I just watched the pilot of The Last Ship (finally) and I've decided not to do a diary on it even though it would be an easy and fun one to do. However, I did want to talk about it a little bit.

Eric Dane, who is a very gorgeous man--who can rock both facial hair and clean shaven--is the lead. I knew Eric Dane was in this show before starting; however, I did not know that Adam Baldwin was in the show (Chuck me). Love me some Adam Baldwin. I also couldn't place the girl who played Rachel Scott. I kept on looking at her, hoping that it would come to me. I kept on catching myself staring at her mouth. She has a very interesting shaped mouth and she never really smiles. Then I thought, maybe she has fangs and BINGO. She was a vampire. All I could picture was her with fangs and at first I thought True Blood, but I was wrong. She was a vampire on The Gates, which was a fun supernatural Desperate Housewives summer show that I wish didn't get cancelled. I also have seen Travis Van Winkle (aka abs man) in various things such as That's So Raven, Hart of Dixie and Meet the Spartans. Michael Bay, director of Transformers, is also an executive producer of the show.

Quick summary: A disease is killing everyone in the world and they might have the cure on the ship.

As much as I like the people in this show, I couldn't really bring myself to care about what happens. When the first crew member died, I said to myself, "Well that's what you get for running down the stairs". I also couldn't understand why they didn't want to kill him. Show him mercy and put him out of misery. What were they going to do, bring him on board? However, the end did have me interested in watching the 2nd episode.

If your contemplating on watching it, I say go for it, you might like it. After all this is a summer show and it's on TNT (Boom). But is it must see? Not really, so I wouldn't recommend it to a friend.

But hey, there is always room for improvement.

Luv ya,
