The Event

Does anyone watch this show?

Anyone else bothered by the fact that President Martinez is suddenly being vilified for taking decisive action after a domestic terrorist attack that killed American citizens?!

I was intrigued by the way this show portrayed White House operations and policy up till now. But they're taking the obvious leftist 'military action is never the answer' view now. UGH. So frustrating. I'm not sure I can watch the show anymore. :/ Blahh.

Anyone else have any thoughts on this episode, or the show in general?

Heh. It's on NBC. I expect the leftist rhetoric to pop up in some way. Sorry to say the concept never appealed to me. I don't like NBC for its leftist leanings, so that is one reason I try not to support them. The other reason is I am still angry with them for canceling Heroes. To be honest, I've really enjoyed watching all of their new shows fail this season--The Event included. I am hoping now that Robert Greenblatt is calling the shots at NBC that things will be different in the 11-12 season.
