Ive just watched the first episode of Human Target which is available from the usual sources. It was ok but not quite as good as I was expecting. However I will give it a chance and hopefully it will improve over the season!

Will have to give this a watch then.
Afterwards the wife said "Yeah, I enjoyed that, but would have liked to watch it from the beginning."
Grounds for divorce, methinks.
It's not actually on in the States till tonight but the first episode leaked early.
To be honest, from the way it started, I did wonder if I had missed some of the start of it.
Just in case no one knew - the bloke who played the nerdy bloke is playing the new Freddy Kruger.
Human Target premiered in Canada friday last, with episode 2 airing this Monday, which is when US viewers will get to see episode 1!
Human Target will continue to air in Canada OUT OF SIMULCAST every Monday thereafter, menaing episodes will air in Canada FIRST on Mondays, and in the US on Fridays!
No, the pilot for Human Target airs in the US tonight, Sunday night, just before the season 8 premiere of 24.
True, my apologies...my planner shows info in accordance with my time zone..
Nor Doc Cottle it would seem.;):D
That said, I am aware that it was the first episode, and opening episodes of new shows are not always the best, since they have to establish characters, premise, etc, hence the feeling that it can be slow paced.
Being fair Ill give this show a few more episodes....it does have a lot of promise.
who could miss Doc Cottle! (and I didn't miss Felix either) Have to say this weeks episode was much better than the first one, starting to see some character development now and will be interesting to see where Chris came from and how he ended up the good guy as opposed to the bad guy he hinted that he used to be.
I'll more than likely be keeping up with this. Mark Valley is very good and I'm a big Chi McBride fan, so that's a bonus.
Interesting cameo by Danny Glover!
While that works for the crime/mystery genre its no really suited for a programme of this type..You end up not really caring about what crazy situation the character/s gets up to
because u know there is no overarching story..

He also played Rorshach in Watchmen
I hadn't heard of it until reading this thread earlier and have just watched the first 6 episodes back to back online. I wasn't sure at first, found it entertaining but a little bit far fetched and, like you, a bit situation of the week, but as I'm full of cold and flu feeling sorry for myself and didn't have much better to do, I carried on watching and am now up to date with all the episodes so far aired. It does get better and there are hints of a story arc, mainly to do with Chance's backstory and I'm intrigued enough to carry on watching.
Me neither It was great to see Sean Maher (Simon from Firefly/Serenity) in one of the episodes as well
