http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/06/25/Meadowlands--More-Questions-Than-Answers.aspx “There’s here and out there, and out there nothing good can happen. Do you get me?”    That’s what Danny Brogan (David Morrissey) tells his wife, Evelyn (Lucy Cohu), about their new digs in the MEADOWLANDS, a development populated by Brits in the witness protection program.    But, the truth of the matter is that it’s not really safe for folks in the MEADOWLANDS, either. Even worse, it can be dangerous for viewers who get bored easily and haven’t moved sharp-edged furniture from the immediate viewing area. There was a point when I almost dozed off and my head nearly hit an end table. But, that’s just me.    Let’s talk about safety. In the premiere episode, handyman Jack Donnelly (Tom Hardy) gets his faced smashed in when he makes improper advances towards Brogan’s daughter Zoe (Felicity Zones). In this episode, he gets killed when he makes improper advances towards Brogan’s son, Mark (Harry Treadaway).    In a town populated by people in the witness program, everyone has secrets and nothing is as it appears. Take Mark for instance: He has ADD and autism, among the list of his problems. Now, it turns out he’s also a cross-dresser and possibly gay. When Jack runs to his house in search of Mark’s twin, Zoe, he finds Mark dressed as a woman and brutally attacks him.    Danny comes home, sees the attack and kills Jack. It’s graphic and loud and woke me from my snooze.  en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/06/25/Meadowlands--More-Questions-Than-Answers.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/06/25/Meadowlands--More-Questions-Than-Answers.aspx#2167 woo, sounds mysterious. cant wait to see what happens brokun1 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/06/25/Meadowlands--More-Questions-Than-Answers.aspx#2167 Mon, 12 Nov 2007 12:45:52 GMT
