Wonderful character development!

... View MoreGood start, but then it gets ruined
... View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
... View MoreI wanted to like this show. I tried to like this show. I would've had to break my brain to like this show.I was looking for some new fluffy actiony TV show to watch, something that had a couple seasons under it's belt already. I'm usually of the mindset that if a show has made it past two seasons, it's probably at least watchable. Every rule has it's exceptions though, and this is one of them.Ever been so bored you get sucked into reading TV tropes? I think maybe the writers mistakenly believed those were plot device recommendations... this show totally checks all the boxes. So, going into it, you'd better be comfortable with guns that make clicky sounds when they move, supposedly high-level special agents who fail at the most basic tasks, people trusting people they shouldn't trust, being betrayed, then trusting them again, computer things that don't really make sense, and ... I kinda lost count, to be honest, of the number of times this show made me say "seriously?!"So I can look past all those "TV sins" if I'm just looking for something to throw on and half pay attention to, but there's one thing I just can't get past. It kinda hit me, while watching the second or third episode: in this world, the FBI has about 20 employees, and doesn't really do much work. (After all, Jane is their most important case!) Once I framed the storyline in those terms, it started to make more sense, and then I couldn't help but notice all the other absurdities that really start compounding before the first season is even halfway through. At some point, you realize you have to turn off your critical thinking skills, and I mean, *completely* shut them off. I kept trying to figure out what was going to happen next, thinking "nah that's way too obvious," then seeing that very thing happen on the screen.It's like this show is written by teenagers, or at a minimum, 20-somethings without a solid grasp on reality. There's almost nothing about the show that's believable, except I mean maybe the basics: people can be tattooed, UV light is a thing, perl and python are in fact scripting languages. Jaimie Alexander is nice to look at. But beyond that, it all falls apart. Maybe this is one of those new shows that's written using machine learning algorithms.I really wonder if the production team is just so lousy that it stomps all over the actors' performances. Kinda hard to do a good job with some of the plot lines this show has. Then again... I don't know... maybe it's just not worth trying to figure out what caused this show to be such a hot mess. It's just so... very... weak.
... View MoreThe pilot episode was great and the concept is captivating. Beyond that, the script is basic and lackluster, the execution of the plot is messy and at times too obvious. The soundtrack carries the show. The acting beyond the two main characters and the "puzzles solver" needs serious work. I keep watching season 1 hoping it will get better but I wish I didn't start watching it because you could cut down the entire episode into about 5 minutes and get the gist minus the entire episode.
... View MoreSlow was a little fast to start with. But it slows down and becomes very interesting. I'm into the 3rd season and it makes for great entertainment if you give it a chance. There's a lot going on and each tattoo brings you to a new episode where it's solved. That's what the show is about. It just gets better as it goes. Give it a chance, a real chance and you won't regret it.
... View MoreOK, so, first thing's first: I absolutely loved the show in its first season. It was so intriguing and it held my interest -- so much so I watched the whole first season in less than a week. Each tattoo lead to a new mystery. It was such a fun storyline.Then season two happened . . . All I could think was: what in the world am I watching? It was a complete waste of my time. I kept watching in hopes the show would get better. It didn't.Fast forward to season 3 guess what!!! Jane's tattoos glow in the dark!!! I've had enough of this. I don't understand how a show could start out so well only to end up so cheesy and ridiculous. I couldn't believe it. The fact that this show is still going is appalling. I don't understand it. NBC needs to kill it with fire. Now. It should have ended at season 1, honestly. Would have made a good ending. Better to end on a high-note than to overstay your welcome. Because the ratings don't lie. By the end of season 1, the show lost half its viewing audience. It should have been canceled then and there.I would have given "Blindspot" an 8.0/10 for season 1. But the show has turned into such a mess. I just cannot suspend disbelief. Because of season 1's quality, I'll give some credit, but a 3.1/10 is as good as it will get from me.
