How blind do you like your justice?

Today I saw the pilot for Blind Justice. A show that has been hyped on NBC for weeks upon weeks. It's about a cop who was shot in the line of duty and ended up blind from a shoot-out. He then tries to prove himself by going back on the force and doing his job.

I thought it was a cool show except for parts that look like he's really seeing something. I know it's the show's way of showing us how he puts the sounds around him togheter to find what's going on. It's shaping up pretty well, showing a lot of dramatic potential where Jim (the guy) has trouble on the force and trouble at home with his estranged wife. (I think estranged is the right word, tv term for someone who give the main character a lifetime of shit in only 10 lines of dialogue.) All in all, I think it's a decent show, with NYPD blue going offline, it will give people their cop show fix. You should all go watch it.

Another show I saw for the first time, although not as glamorous is Robot Chicken. Yeah the name pretty much explains it all. Basically Seth Green and some other guy, (I'm going to call him the "other guy from Wham" since that's how important his name looks next to Seth Green), made a show where everything is animated with dolls and action figures. Although the show is incredibally short (a horrendus 15 mins), it's very funny. It's good because it's always giving you a throwback to your youth when they show things like Cabbage Patch Kids and the muppet band. This is another show worth watching, and being only 15 mins with a commercial in the middle, why the hell not?

OK while I'm on a roll, I think it's time for my DVD pick for the week. This week's recommendation is Las Vegas Season 1. I found myself totally addicted to this show over the last two weeks. It's ensemble cast rocks as they show people who run a big time Las Vegas Casino. I would explain more, but I've run out of words today and if you don't belive me then fine, you watch your own boring show.

Till Next time!
