Great actor chemistry & location, nice mix of drama & comedy July 12, 2008
Teresa Spencer (USA)
In Plain Sight is about witnesses in the federal witness protection program and two US marshals who protect them (focusing more on the female marshal). That makes it more of a character-based series than an action series (since WITSEC has an incredible record of protecting its witnesses).
The show is filmed in and around Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the show appears to use a lot of local actors.
Its leads are not from the current crop of pretty, young, look-alike celebs - instead they're around the 40s mark, are seasoned actors, have distinctive appearances . . . and are incredibly sexy.
The editing is often awkward and the gunplay hokey (which keeps the body count way low). But the verbal and facial interactions between the characters more than make up for that. The actor chemistry is great. The dry humor is intelligent and often wonderfully subtle.
These characters have a tremendous amount of potential. As they've been sketched in during the first 6 episodes, they have multiple layers. Whether they continue to fill in those layers will make or break this show for me.
Amazon Unboxed Season Pass works nicely over my highspeed connection and is a convenient way to get a clean copy of each episode within a few days of its original airing.
