I suppose it had to happen, I mean Dan (Kevin McKidd) can’t avoid his own son. Although after what happens tonight, I’m sure his wife will want him to. And katie (Gretchen Egolf) is in a bad enough mood, what with finding out Dan is meeting up with his former flame on his time traveling trips and being stood up by her husband right before the big gala event she put together. Oh yeah, and just to add insult to injury there was a robbery during said event a few blocks away, and now the police want to question katie about what she may or may not have seen. But there are bigger problems in the world, and apparently Dan is being put in charge of fixing some of them. However, being put in charge by whom is still the nagging question. We have a little more insight, after Dan contacted that scientist who just happened to know Dan’s father and managed to call him during one of his trips back to the 1980s. I’ve said it before, there may be just a smidge too much intrique and mystery at this point in the series. It’s all getting a bit too complicated, albeit entertaining. I just hope the writers start to pull back a little before this show goes the way of other Sci-Fi dramas that tried too hard to be facinating and original. But, the fact that JOURNEYMAN is still on the air speaks volumnes. I mean we have all seen how quickly the networks yank a new show if they don’t feel it’s performing up to their standards. Fox pulled NASHVILLE after just two episodes, so I guess NBC has a lot of faith in this newcomer. Even with all the complicated twists and turns, I like it too, so I’m glad to see it hanging on. And it does look like they are going to answer some of the most plaguing questions before the season is through, so I will withhold final judgement till then. Meanwhile, back to that former soldier and why he needs the help of our guy Dan. 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/2007/10/23/JOURNEYMAN----The-Legend-of-Dylan-McCleen.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/23/JOURNEYMAN----The-Legend-of-Dylan-McCleen.aspx#1871 I have really tried to watch this show at least 4 times - there is so much going on that it gets confusing really easy!! roniford1997 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/23/JOURNEYMAN----The-Legend-of-Dylan-McCleen.aspx#1871 Wed, 24 Oct 2007 02:40:47 GMT
