THE HUNTING PARTY on NBC

[samhexum]

I just watched the first episode of NBC's newest show starring Melissa Roxburgh, who was Michaela on manifest.

It was OK… It has kind of a blacklist/manifest vibe, in that there will be a weekly storyline which incrementally (and probably frustratingly) builds to an ever-elusive overall mystery.

It was decent enough that I'll keep watching it and see if it retains my interest.

Episode two is tonight.

So after watching the flip off all day I kept thinking I was watching Christina Haack-El Moussa-Anstead-Hall-Haack starring in The Hunting Party tonight.

It is not the worst show I've ever watched (it's also very far from the best) but it's like nails on a blackboard to me every time someone calls the lead character Bex.  It's just such a TV character name.

Last night's episode wasn't bad (writes the only person on this site watching the show).

Tomorrow is the season finale of the show only my sister and I watch.  I think I have an idea what the inevitable shocking reveal/cliffhanger will be.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much explanation they gave and how much they tied up.

I was also pleasantly surprised by who Shane's mom turned out to be.

I enjoyed the series a bit more than I thought I would and hope they renew it.

NBC renewed the show that only my sister and I watch.

The show is being held for midseason.  This past season of Organized Crime will have the 10pm Thursday slot when the season starts and then hunting party takes over.
