Remember when I said this show was good? Scratch that. Last night’s episode, was entitled, ‘Spooked’. More like not spooked. I’m upset because I could have watched drugs and sex on Swingtown instead.

The episode starred Eric Roberts, Cynthia Watros from Lost and Jack Noseworthy. We start with Eric trying to do his best Vic Mackie impression as, Harry the Cop, killing kidnapping suspect Rory (Jack). I couldn’t decide whether he did it accidently or on purpose. Who knows and it’s the least of my problem with this episode. Anyway, he finds the kid locked in a closet of some sort and saves him.

Afterwards, we see Rory being wheeled away clinging to life and he utters to Harry, “You will never forget this, I won’t let you.” Yeah, me neither Rory, because this episode sucks and so does your acting. This is only 10 minutes in btw.

Flash forward fifteen years and we find Harry still doing his Vic Mackie impression as, Harry the corrupt P.I. He gets hired by Cynthia Watros to find out whether her husband has been cheating on her. There is something creepy about her from the start, but Harry takes the job anyway.

Instead of staking out in his van, Cynthia persuades him to use the vacant house across the street from her house. Now, first off there is no way this house would have been in this neighborhood. The house is not just creepy it looks like a bomb was dropped in the middle of it. And it’s sitting in the middle of what looks like a fairly nice suburban neighborhood, so this is where the story starts to unravel.

More stupid and random events occur while Harry’s in the house and I don’t really care at this point, because I am bored with this whole episode. There are conversations of people who are not there, weird flashbacks of events that are just dumb, and strange changing graffiti. A random teenager tells us the house is haunted because of what he did to those kids. What kids you ask and who is he? That’s the question I am asking as well. Waaay out in left field.

There is nothing really more to tell you guys other than Cynthia Watros eyes are creepy. Seriously, check them out if you waste your time watching this. And her motive is so obvious!!! In the end Harry gets it and Cynthia’s plan is completed. This was directed by Brad Anderson (The Machinist) and I’m not sure if I understand where he was going with this. I’m not sure he knew where he was going with it either.

So what do we learn from this show, uh, playing with guns is dumb. Ok, we knew that. I won’t bother explaining that. It doesn’t matter, I promise.

Overall the second episode was terrible. Maybe a 3/10 if I was rating it and I am. Uh, NBC, this is not the way to build a fan base with your show. Next week we get Clifton Collins, Jr. (awesome actor) and cutie, Colin Ferguson (Eureka) in the third episode called, “The Family Man.” Looks like they switch bodies during a car wreck, and one of them is a serial killer. Sounds like Face/Off to me.

Hope you guys watch, I hope I watch.
