Blindspot

I didn't watch the first half of the first season of this TV series when it first aired on NBC, but thanks to their web site I'm hocked.

Basic plot:
A woman is founded naked, tattooed and suffering from drug induced total amnesia. One of the tattoos is the the name of an FBI agent. This of course gets the FBI's attention.

Her body remembers the skills she had before the memory wipe even if her mind doesn't. So for example when she needs to defend herself she suddenly discovers she's a master of martial arts, but can't explain where she was trained, by whom or for what purpose.

Each episode reveals that the tattoos hold clues to crimes about to take place. How this is possible is part of the mystery. As are the motives of whoever set this up. Are they friends or foes? No one, least of all the woman herself can be sure. Although

Episode titles seem to be nonsensical but are actually anagrams. Example the pilot: "Woe Has Joined" is actually "Who is Jane Doe?"

1 "Woe Has Joined"
"Who is Jane Doe"

2 "A Stray Howl"
"Taylor Shaw"

3. "Eight Slim Grins"
"The Missing Girl"

4. "Bone May Rot"
"Or Maybe Not"

5. "Split the Law"
"The Past Will"

6. "Cede Your Soul"
"Cloud Your Eyes"

7. "Sent on Tour"
"Trust No One"

8. "Persecute Envoys"
"Suspect Everyone"

9. "Authentic Flirt"
"Lift the Curtain"

10. "Evil Handmade Instrument"
"And Unveil the Mastermind"

11. "Cease Forcing Enemy"
"In Case of Emergency"

12. "Scientists Hollow Fortune"
"Follow these Instruction"

13. "Erase Weary Youth"
"Stay Where you Are

14. "Rules in Defiance"

15. "Older Cutthroat Canyon"

last two as well as 13-23 have not aired yet. The series has already been renewed for a second season.

I'm enjoying this series to Guybrush. I've watched the show since it aired and am looking forward to its return on Monday the 29th of February.

That's one I wanted to watch but haven't. The premise reminds me of "John Doe" which was a show we really liked. Thanks for reminding me of it.

Sounds good Guybrush.


looney,

I remember watching John Doe on Fox.

Just read about "John Doe", hope Blindspot doesn't get canceled before they solve the mystery of the tattoos.

Uh oh, somebody over at internet movie database, claims that the two lead actors cannot stand each other in real life. If its true hope it doesn't effect the show.

Hope it doesn't get canceled too Guybrush.

Now I'm like every other fan, waiting. Except my wait is days not months.

I knew what happened with the boyfriend would happen.

No terrorist has ever thought they were the bad guys. So mister tree tattoo claiming he's one of the good guys doesn't make it so.

Watched the latest episode. Not sure what to expect next Guybrush!

We tried to watch Blindspot but couldn't really get into it. We loved John Doe, too bad they had to cancel it. The writer's did a interview where they explained the ending. I wish they had kept going with that show.

They just started season 2 on Monday.

That's the one I watched Cathy.

Updated titles:


11. "Cease Forcing Enemy"
"In Case of Emergency"

12. "Scientists Hollow Fortune"
"Follow these Instruction"

13. "Erase Weary Youth"
"Stay Where you Are

I've been watching this one since the beginning and have some theories about Jane based on some of her flashbacks. It'll be interesting to see how it all pans out.

14. "Rules in Defiance"
"Find a Secure Line"
15. "Older Cutthroat Canyon"
"To Contact Your Handler"

16. "Any Wounded Thief"
"Find What You Need:

17. "Mans Telepathic Loyal Lookouts"
"In Almost the Last Place You Look"

18. "One Begets Technique"
"To Begin the Sequence"

19. "In the Comet of Us"
"Focus on the Time"

20. "Swift Hardhearted Stone"
"Then Head First Road West"

21. ""Of Whose Uneasy Route"
"To Your New Safehouse"

Two episode left in the first season. Renewed for a second.

22 "If Love a Rebel, Death Will Render"
"The Final Order Will Be Revealed"

With the shocks in this episode I can't imagine what the season finale is going to do.

Apparently the Oscar actor has gotten a new gig, another TV show, so I guess next week will see Oscar die. Which isn't a surprise at all.

Season finale:
23 "Why Await Life's End"
"When It's Filed Away"[

Season two will be very different.

Oh dear!

Who is Jane Doe Really? - some spoilers from last two episodes of season 1 and some teasers for season 2.
