SMG had no life outside of the show that 5 years. The show started airing in 1997 and 5 years later would be 2002 which corresponded to her getting married to Freddie Prinze Jr. Most actors would rather be movie stars and work a few months out of the year making decent money then doing 22 episode TV shows 60-80 hrs weeks 9 months out of the year for less pay. Especially when you are the main character that is in 90% of the scenes. You notice that when major actors went to TV is when episode count went down to 8-13 a year on premium cable for a decent salary. I still recall interviews with Richard Dean Anderson (the original MacGyver) on how much work that show was to make and and how his personal life suffered. It was a few years after MacGyver ended before he did another TV show and by the time he did Stargate SG1 he made sure it was an ensemble show.

I would think most actors want to have own take and vision on a character and you can't really do that when taking over another actors role. For good or bad people will think of RR as Batwoman until a new show with that character is made.

I think when they say mature they mean somebody in their 20's with CW looks and little to no experience that would accept the low pay CW shows offer while expected to kill themselves doing stunt work for the next 5 years until their contract runs out and they can hobble away as fast as they can.

Hell NO.

Ruby Rose quit? https://www.spoilertv.com/2020/05/batwoman-ruby-rose-exits-as-lead-role.html

Saved from thinking about killing his father for the 10+ years he would be on death row? I think the kid was a worse person that his father (who basically just wasn't around for him).

I just assume he gave himself up at the first safe opportunity. Not everybody in prison has a long sentence left to serve and getting a dozen more years for a breakout he had no part in probably doesn't sound like a good idea. He didn't bother to snag a gun either did he?

$100K went to the guard who was in on it and was never busted. The police probably figured that money was spent when they found the $840K.

You can always build a house on that land if they wanted to. I think the reason she doesn't live in a nice place has to do with the fact that her job is mob based and can go away in a second so she probably just wants to bank the money for when she has to either run or find other work. Besides if she starts looking like she has money all the other rednecks in her area will plan on robbing her.

The whole point of the enemy attack was to keep that prisoner from talking so shooting in their general direction would not help matters much. You either kill them or they will attack again when the convoy is moving maybe with another suicide car bomb. The one thing that bothered me is those truck mounted Russian heavy machine guns would have gone straight through the walls of the house the SF were hiding behind.

The cool part was she zoned out and asked what happened after it was done. We could find out she did this before and just doesn't remember it making for some interesting stories.

I assume she just dressed up as a nurse and went in. The guy would be under sedation after losing his eyes so probably didn't put up much of a fight anyway.

Special forces are designed to sneak into a place, do what they have to do, and sneak out undetected. You notice all the silencers on their weapons, night vision equipment, and the fact they like to fight at night where they have the advantage of seeing and not being seen. They use drones to see where the enemy is and isn't and air strikes plus helicopter gunship support has saved their bacon on more then one occasion when outnumbered in a stand up fight. They also come in through the water or get air dropped to there they need to go so they can hit places with no roads or other easy ways to get in. Man for man they are better trained and are better shots then most enlisted army units but fighting a superior in numbers trained force out in the open is suicide especially one with artillery, tanks and airpower. Now against poorly trained jihadists with no air support or heavy weapons in a position that would take time to reinforce SF will ruin their day.

Was he called the surgeon because he was a doctor in his day job or because he liked to creatively cut up people with absolute precision or make art of them? I would kill for Mads Mikkelsen to have a part in season 2 as a therapist for Martin, or he could just bring him special dinners.

The lady assassin will probably take out the big bad next episode. A rich 15 years younger Jessica would be a catch. I think Malcolm really did like Eve because she did come back after he almost knifed her in his sleep after they had sex. Broken people tend to fall for other broken people who can understand them. They have to do something exciting with Ainsley as a cliff hanger or why even have her on the show.

If they split a season 6 into two half seasons he would be stuck filming for a long time and that would probably interfere with whatever else he might have signed up for after the current final season which isn't even done filming yet is it? No idea how in demand he is to be honest.

Generally when I think of the cheapest made handguns I think of bad quality and reliability (jamming) so it would have been funny if red pulled the trigger and it jammed so he would have to beat the gun owner to death with it and it falls apart and finally he has to use a real gun to finish the job. I think the whole point of the episode was that the gun company owner just cared about sales and not who used them. Seems like he made a model of gun targeted at street criminals with little money and even when his sales guy (who probably makes commission of sales) seen the girl was not a collector and didn't want to make the sale the owner made him do it anyway. And the girl that died was smeared so that it would not affect sales even when the fixer complained about not having a real link to gangs. Its like the company would tone down the bullshit and act better with the CEO dead. Red has some kind of code where he would sell guns to militia fighting the government and also sell to the government to fight the same militia but not to terrorists who kill civilians with it.

I suspect that the number of cases will drop over the summer leaving people to think the worst is over and a mutated version of the virus will hit us hard in the winter. You really can't go into lockdown again in 6 months without permanently killing the economy. Not surprised Bill isn't filming this in his house, he seems too private to do that.

The show has been #1 or #2 on Netflix top 10 for a while now, should be renewed unless the leads don't want to do another season.

Is the woman who played the leads girlfriend coming back?

He said he knew one guy and that guy died 5 years ago.

There is a market for stolen art, but only at a small fraction of its value. So you steal $100M worth of classic art that might sell for $10M over a few years and that is split by half a dozen people so slightly over $1M. They had some fake police cars, uniforms, keycards, made up plus weapons and such so there was some money and tons of time invested in the plot. So even if the plan worked these guys are convicted felons in the system and none were wearing masks so unless they planned on killing all the witnesses and scrubbing the whole building of their fingerprints and DNA they would be caught eventually. I do wonder why an alarm from an art gallery or museum (which ever it was) would be routed through 911 instead of going directly to the police. 911 just routes peoples calls for help, something like ADT would get triggered by the alarm and they would call the police after verifying something was wrong.

The point of the super computer is to predict what people would do under very specific circumstances. The gathering of years and years of data on everyone is where the computer figures out how to make those predictions. The snag comes with people who are unpredictable that cannot be modeled. Being unpredictable might not matter that much if you work at McDonalds (screw up enough and there are a dozen replacements around) but national leaders and CEOs need to be predictable so people who lack that quality are steered through life away from positions of power by having lesser jobs or sent to die in wars. If you look at how presidents are elected there seems to be quite a bit of randomness that gets you into the running and even people who would have been good at the job get derailed very easily. If you take that randomness out of the equation and end up with a dozen or so good candidates you can manipulate to run you end up winning. When the main villain in person in front of armed soldiers told that leader he either quits making trouble with some specific problem or the leader will be replaced he needed to know for sure what the reaction was going to be. The problem I see in using this kind of prediction modeling is that quite a few good things in the world came from people who are unpredictable and who are not the best people for a given job but do well anyway. If you look at sports players who should have had a great career don't, and those who were picked last sometimes end up in the hall of fame. Some inventions are just accidents somebody was smart enough to use for something else.

I think there is something like 1.75 Trillion Dollars in Federal Reserve notes in circulation most of which are overseas. There is quite a bit of fake money out there as well made in places like North Korea and Britain. The US troops distributed $12B in cash in Iraq and I am sure some of the did pocket a few bucks.

Well if the special effects shop is in CA which is under lockdown it will not get worked on. Castle had its main and secondary actors signed to new contracts and was still canceled but in that case it was the studio that did the contracts and not the end buyer. I would like more seasons because it isn't boring yet, and all shows eventually get to that point if they last long enough.
