“Gone Part 2″

Review: The 4400 3.05 gal01

Part 2 takes the set up it was given in Part 1 and makes it work.  Unfortunately a show shouldn’t have to MAKE it work.  If it’s MAKING it work, that means characters and situations are being shoehorned into the plot against their will.

“Gone Part 1″
Review: The 4400 3.04 gone7

“Gone” is a clever episode overall, and a good set up for Part II which I knew even before I saw it would be tough to wrap.  But that’s next review.  Set up is generally easy, but sometimes difficult to build the proper excitement

We start with RIchard, of course, coming to Shawn’s door first thing in the morning while Isabelle lay in his bed.  They don’t tell him and decide to go behind his back for now…especially after Richard just thanked him for being her friend.

“Being Tom Baldwin”

Review: The 4400 3.03 s03e03

“Being Tom Baldwin” is…well passable.  There’s nothing wrong with it per se…it’s just tired.  It’s a 4400er of the week with a little frosting to tie it in to the main arc.  But it’s also one of what I call “Those episodes”.  “Those episodes” are episodes that you will find in almost every sci-fi/fantasy type show at some point in the series.  I may have to actually write up a list sometime soon, but this is the “Doppleganger” episode.

I try not to comment too much on previews but I did think this looked good.  It has a great central theme and is based on something besides mindless action like the other preview I just posted.
