Kidnapped. second episode. I like it. end credits said whole episode is up at NBC, so good, I missed bits.
also? Sat Sep 30 10:00P on NBC Jeremy Sisto Current Month TV Schedule
I like the young daughter - could be too-cute-talkative, but isn't, I like her - "jimbo, this is my friend sam. sam, this is my friend jimbo." tells jimbo that leo knows a lot of words and doesn't talk much, like you. she's direct and she's resilient. all hyped up about show&tell at school, told she's not going, and 'this is jimbo', she's quick to adjust: "can I take you to show&tell next week?" and in first episode when dad is making pb&j wrong and freaks out. she's fine.
and leo is very cool, believably smart I think. the getaway scene at end - interesting shots, him running - nice filming?- then taking the hand of captor "maybe you want to stick w me? mexico can be a dangerous place."
actually the mom - 'actually' bcs seems like commenters I read all like dana delaney best - is the character I don't like watching.
sisto, great great. figured he was the rookie in lindo's story, who shot the guy holding gun to lindo's head. and I guess sisto's "yeah. first day on the job." is supposed to tell us that, right.
I'm in for Sisto.
(with Heroes - am I in for ali larter? for clare & her mom?. and with studio 60 for bradley whitford ~ but not thoroughly in, seems I am losing interest after that second episode. anyway NBC wins, with me, for new shows. I may watch Shark sometimes on CBS. I may watch ABC shows but as dumb entertainment. except Spader on BLegal, take him seriously. and GilmoreGirls on CW but that hardly reflects the network it's all LG as Lorelai.)
and so, Kidnapped. Sisto: you guys notice anything strange today? Lindo: you mean like a team of professionals take the boy and the daughter with this thug? Sisto: ... Lindo: never crossed my mind.
I'm not getting the feel of that exchange. but for once it is actually the content that interests me, I am int within-the-story qstn here why they would use 'the thug', what that was for...
huh (ah. hadn't thought-):
-Tooms has had The Accountant killing off his minions as soon as they've outlived their usefulness. So as soon as this week's Bad Boy lets Tooms know he's in trouble, what happens? The FBI shows up and the most boyish, naive looking guy on the team shoots him dead. 1-2: "Special Delivery" 2006.09.27 - TWoP Forums
Anyway, Jeremy Sisto's mysterious phone call dragged me right in to this week's episode. Did I catch what was going on -- an old nemesis; someone who kidnapped a girl and Knapp never found her? And he somehow knows about this kidnapping? Love Jimbo. Nice bit of comic relief, but still in tune with the show. Little bits of business showed quality -- like Knapp smoothly handing Little Cain her spoon at breakfast. I appreciate stuff in the background like that. And -- a great ending. I'm definitely hooked.
-Tonight's episode was interesting, I think it gave us an idea of what the show is going to be like. It certainly won't have the breakneck pace of a show like 24, and they will have a "mystery" that wraps up every week. I still like it a lot. But I would imagine some will say it was too slow tonight, but I liked it.
In a lot of ways the show is more about the people who find missing people than it is about the people who are missing. I did like the scene at the end. Mexico ? interesting
-I like the 'Leopold in Mexico' bit. Fat lot of good French will do him there. And, if he can't escape, he'll have to devote time talking to his captor. This aspect of the show interests me.
-My husband questioned why Leo would run up to those guys, and I said, he's still a kid; they're taught to go to adults when they're in trouble. yes that's the first thing smart kid wld do, right: "Please help me, I've been kidnapped." Was he limping at the end, though? Walking across that bridge? Where did the bridge come from? He was running on rooftops. --someone answers, I'm not looking at it now, recalling: the bridge is apparently the way home that isn't running on rooftops. the way 'home', ~nice.
--The casting on Aubrey was fantastic. She looks just like the younger sister.
-And the brother "matches" too -- nice job. They're either paying attention to details or they got lucky.
-They got really good actors/actresses to play the kids. So far none of the kids have annoyed me.
-It wasn't until Timothy Hutton said "Connie" that I realized that he played a Conrad/Connie in Ordinary People years and years ago. That jolted me out of the show and threw it all off stride for a couple of minutes, I thought "wasn't that his name in Ordinary People?" for the rest of the show! yeah that's weird.
-I like the "every episode is one day" thing they seem to have going on; very Twin Peaks-like. I just hope they can sustain it. I didnt exactly notice. and did not know slash notice re TwinPeaks (wh first saw on dvd not week by week).
