Pilot

In what was a rather avid marketing campaign by NBC, Blindspot turned out to be just okay. In the end there just wasn't anything special. Our leads Jaimie Alexander and Sullivan Stapleton were fine but I think the former tried a bit too hard to make something out of a pretty bland script. But Stapleton, of 300 fame, was formidable and I can definitely see him leading more films or TV shows in the future.

I think people, including myself, tuned in because of the supposed mystery that surrounded the marketing, and rightfully so. The show looked pretty cool thematically and visually. But it turns out to be rather silly. The FBI are portrayed with a certain amount of ineffectiveness. Not only is there consistently not enough man power in the field, but they bring in the mystery girl out in the field as well. It just doesn't make much sense.

The mystery behind the tattoos is also pretty much revealed in the pilot which is a mystery in and of itself. Because for people like me who thought the 'twist' or the 'answer' was stupid, we now have no reason to come back and watch. So overall it was a pretty lame episode for a likely lame show.

6.0/10

I barely made it through the first episode. It was was a total mess. Unrealistic and quite boring. There are far better action Series out there. So this is a Series that I will not waste My time watching.

After being told I need to see this show, I watched the first episode.

Considering the average acting, and a plot no one outside the US would care about, I have to wonder what the fuss is all about.

Given all the good shows out there, I will have to think hard before wasting another 40 minutes.

If you like the bland, flat, expositional dialogue of a Michael Bay movie but think his films have too much action, then you'll love this series.

It's well produced with ok actors, but they can only do so much. The writing is just atrocious. And the character's actions have zero basis in reality.

The beats are unbelievably predictable and the supposed "mystery" of it only serves to give an excuse to the episodic delivery that broadcast TV demands.

This was recommended to us by multiple friends and I can not for the life of me think what we did to them that warrants this sort of treatment. I am so sorry guys, please don't inflict this level of mediocrity on us again.

One of my favourite shows already. Not at all realistic but very engaging and mysterious. And Jamie Alexander is hot.
