Thoughts on recent Dead Zone episodes

[rivkat]

1. So, Bruce ... lives? Good for him. And good for the Bruce/Johnny of my idle fantasies.

2. Sarah, however, showed less brain function than Johnny. Do you think you ought to listen to the psychic, no matter how addled he is? And do you think it might be a good idea not to go blabbing what he said to the obviously evil doctor in the obviously creepy hospital? Even, maybe, move Johnny to a different hospital AMA?

I always groan when a woman alone in a dangerous situation with a known killer says, "I'm going call the police and tell on you and then you'll get the death penalty," (implied: so you have nothing at all to lose by killing me in some horrible way). It's not her fault--it's the deus ex machina writer who needs some excuse for the killer to be forced to put her in danger so the hero will have a chance to do something that resolves the plot, making him a hero, and allowing her to be rescued.

Yawn.
