Wasn't the season 2 premiere last night? I don't have a DVR so I set my VCR (!) but I programmed it for 9/24 (it must have been after midnight on 9/23 when I set it so I forwarded it by one day)! ARRRGH! So how was it? Do they have a new cast member to replace Lloyd? Was it low-key as usual? Will they repeat it soon?

I found myself constantly wondering what was wrong--what was wrong with the writing, acting, etc... I was disinterested during the entire show.

It's like they put 12 monkeys in a room with typewriters...

From season 1 that was pretty consistantly interesting, to the premier that was entirely forgettable.

Yes, they've got two new players... Diane Farr, whom I really liked in "The Job", but I'm not sure if she'll fit in with this show. And another guy... don't know who he is.

Man, they better get back up to speed, or this'll drop off my watch list.

YMMV

Sarah Carter looked different in this episode, like her face was a little puffier or something.

Whoever lights the show (the DP), they light up Diane Farr pretty well.

Glad to see Navi Rawat make it into the opening credits, too.

The actual case was pretty ho-hum, plus David's "get tough" stance was sort of over-sold, like he was over-compensating for something.

I'm still stuck on her being part of Loveline on MTV.

I'm a fan but admit the weekly numbers tie-in is really stretching credulity. I like FBI procedurals and dramas involving academia but they are different worlds and seldom interact.

If Charlie is so effective why aren't other FBI field offices (or DC) asking for a piece of the pie. [or should that be pi ]

A very disappointing season opener for me. It seemed to be stretching things to make a "numbers" connection to the crime as others have stated. Here's hoping that this was just a bad episode and not the start of a trend.

OMG, I forgot about that, with Dr. Drew if I recall?

That goes back a few years...

There's actually a decent little article about her in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly.

With the worst picture I've ever seen of Diane, so farr.
