It seemed odd that Erica did not know Jack was a priest. So much ground was covered in the mini-series my brain assumed that they could write mini-biographies about each other by the end of it. Though fun was had seeing them connect, fight, and reconnect by the end of this second stellar episode. It is wrong that I'm rooting for the priest and the FBI agent to hook up?
I love that the characters are so fully realized in this series just two episodes in, it really is the hallmark of a good piece of fiction. I care about Erica and Jack and I want them to successfully and safely build the resistance. I'm worried about their well being and am greatly anticipating them getting in touch up with Ryan (the V).
Speaking of Ryan, he does need to drop the soon to be fiancée. He's going to get her killed, the V resistance fighter/mechanic/doctor is right.
Is it wrong that I don't have faith in the agent we followed this week from the V task force because she played a miserable, untrustworthy, selfish character on Battlestar Galactica? That and she made the "I'm a bad guy" face throughout all of her scenes. Admittedly the "I'm a bad guy" face is easily confused for the "I'm a good guy, but I'm faking the viewers out" face.
Another miserable character on this show continues to be Erica's son Tyler. His character makes me cringe every time he's on screen. Why didn't the angry mob beat the snot out of Tyler when he hit that guy to impress the V he's got a crush on? Side note, I also intensely dislike Tyler's friend.
Why would Dayle keep a cell phone to call the V's from on a regular basis? Sadly it just seems like sloppy writing. If the V's are smart enough to intercept 911 calls, they are smart enough to get their undercover agents burner phones.
I would have liked to see Erica swipe that list of crazies out of the V task force's office. That could have added a moment of levity to a seriously intense episode of television.
I like the way they are portraying Decker, the reporter. I can't tell if he's in this for himself, the V's, or humanity and I think I'm going to have a fun time trying to figure him out.
Why does Anna make the blinky eyes every time Decker walks away from her? More importantly why haven't we seen other V's make the blinky eyes? Is it unique to Anna? Is a twitch that comes with the stresses of being the V "High Commander"? Why don't other V's make the blinky eyes? These are important questions.
Have I mentioned I love this cast?
