I'm going to blog about the TV I watch and what I think about it—not just new stuff, but whatever I happen to be watching at the moment. I'll sneak in some deep thoughts too when you most expect it. There could even be guest posts if anyone else is interested in writing.

Quantico

I caught up on Quantico quickly by watching it on Hulu. The show focuses on a class of new students at the FBI Academy at Quantico—thus the name. They are all beautiful people with exaggerated credentials of excellence. Most have some kind of painful past that haunts them.

The show isn't really about FBI training. When the do show the trainees in a classroom, the instructor is always, always delivering some grandiose speech about being an FBI agent rather than offering actual education. Every day of class feels like the first day introduction. I'm not sure when they learn things like lawful arrest and chain-of-custody.

The show is really about some terrorist attack that happened some months later after the trainees have either washed out or become special agents. The evidence seems to point to our protagonist, Alex Parrish, the strong, sexy female lead.

Most of the fun of watching this show is trying to figure out who the real terrorist is. The show strongly suggests that the terrorist is someone Alex knows in the FBI.

It's entertaining. I'd recommend it do a friend. I have some thoughts on who the terrorist is.
