Human Target 2010 Comic-Con recap

I, too, enjoy Human Target very much and was delighted Fox decided to give it a new half-season (13 episodes).

Unfortunately, they have also given it the time slot of death - Friday at 8. I'm afraid these next thirteen shows may be the last we'll ever get.

Mark Valley enthusiastically discusses the fun of shooting Human Target (a show I ordered on Blu-ray based on the fun of this panel and the season one recap they showed at Comic-Con).

Jackie Earle Haley, a popular actor and character on the show, talks about how his character remains a part of the action even though he is not officially part of the team on the show.

Was there any word on the female computer expert character that we saw in a couple of episodes?

Neil - I don't recall any specific mention of that character during the panel discussion. The producer did say, however, that there would be some clients from season one (and othe characters) that we would see again in season two.

The new season started last Friday?  How did I not know abou this?  Arrgh!  I took a half day off Friday becaus of a dental appointment, stopped at the pharmacy to pick up a pain pill prescription, came home, unplugged the phone, took two pills and went to bed.  After I reconnected the phone on Saturday I found a voice mail from a friend of mine saying that there was a new episode airing the night before.  I know I can catch up on-line, but I hate streaming TV on a 17" computer monitor or watching fuzzy VGA blown up on a 720p 56" screen. 

If there were any promos, I missed them, because I don't usually watch reruns of shows I've already seen, so other than Lie to Me there's nothing new on Fox that I'm watching right now. 

Next episode is 9/17.  I hope they replay the first episode before then.

Regards,

Joe

You're safe, Joe :)

The episode broadcast last Friday was from Season 1.  "Rewind" to be precise, production code 105, but the second broadcast episode with Chance and Winston aboard a plane trying to protect a hacker from an assassin.  Like Josh said, you didn't miss a new episode.

BTW, the second season premieres on October 1st.

Yeah, my friend caught "Rewind", which by chance he hadn't seen before, and thought the season had started.  When I checked the show's web page "Rewind" was listed as "NEW" - presumably meaning it was a new upload to the recent episode list.  So I was confused.  (Especially since I rarely remember titles.) 

Looking forward to October. (And beyond? )

Regards,

Joe

Due to Lone Star getting cancelled and Lie to Me taking it's place, Human Target has been moved from Friday to Wednesday night.  However, it won't begin it's second season until November 17th.

I was wondering why House was on tonight and it wasn't even on the schedule next week.  Thanks.
 

Despite the delay, I think this is a net plus as Wednesday tends to be less of a program graveyard than Friday.

No question about that point.  The only problem I have is that I watched NBC's Undercovers which has the same Wednesday timeslot so I'll be DVRing two programs at the same time.  However, I have a feeling that Undercovers might be kicked to the curve too for low ratings.

And I just realized why she won't be making any major appearances on The Human Target.  Autumn Reeser is playing the wife's sidekick on No Ordinary Family.

This series begins its second season on November 17th. 

Like Ames, I'm really digging it.

A reminder that this series begins it's second season this Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET.

Here's hoping season 2 will be better, ratings-wise.

I think having season 1 already out on DVD should really help, giving new viewers enough time to catch up (not that this is really the type of show that requires watching the episodes in order).
