The Grid

My brother and I are ghouls.

We started watching the new TNT mini-series, The Grid. It was well developed. The direction was good, the editing was fantastic, so were the graphics. And in the first five minutes or so, we were laughing so hysterically I thought I was going to dislodge something in my midsection.

We laughed hard. It started as the cigarette ash fell from the mouth of one of the members in the terrorist cell. It continued as the lid on the bio-weapon vial dissolved, and went on right up until after the lucky survivor ran past the rolling baby carriage and the man draped over the wall railing. (Who, I surmise was supposed to have fallen out the hotel room window.)

There was another couple of inappropriate funny moments, but that was the most intense. Mostly because people were dying and I really don’t think the show’s producers intended for there to be hilarity in those moments. I really enjoyed the show overall, and I think I will definitely watch this show again. Hell, before the show ended, I thought I wanted to own the series on DVD.
