http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/BROTHERS-AND-SISTERS----An-American-Family.aspx After finding out that Justin’s (Dave Annable) unit got caught in the middle of sniper fire in last week’s episode, Kevin (Mathew Rhys), Kitty (Calista Flockhart) and Nora (Sally Field) are beside themselves when they find out their boy is coming home. But after an experience like that, how can anybody return as the same person they were when they left? Considering that the last time Justin returned from Iraq he was hooked on drugs, I shudder to think what demons he brought back with him this time. This is the type of storyline that truly lets Hollywood shine. The horrors of war, and what the men and women who are fighting have to go through are some of the most relevant topics of the day. Having a hit show like BROTHERS AND SISTERS shine a light on the reality of those horrors is a good thing, even if it isn’t always comfortable or fun to watch. Too often all we see are the happy homecomings, we don’t have to watch the struggle most of the men and women go through while trying to assimilate back into our society. But with episodes like this one, we get a little taste of how difficult it must be. 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/2007/10/08/BROTHERS-AND-SISTERS----An-American-Family.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/BROTHERS-AND-SISTERS----An-American-Family.aspx#1724 it was ok.
