Spoilers







I really liked this show at first but it's starting to drag big time. The acting and some of the lines have always been cheesy but the story was intruiging so I could overlook it.

The last few episodes have been awful and just seem to be adding more crap to what is already a jumbled bunch of story lines.

At this point I'm basically just watching to find out who the terrorist is, that's the one thing they've done a good job with bc I have no idea who it is other than I think Shelbys parents are involved somehow.

Also how did Alex go from a badass willing to become the most wanted person in the country in order to do what's right, to a sniveling crying pussy who steals information to help a terrorist because her life is being threatened?

I've missed the last couple of episodes, is Shelby one of the bad guys now?

I bailed... too many ridiculous twists and most of the acting/story is too cheeseballs to take seriously.

ETA: The whole "everyone is hiding something" angle was a little bit much as well. They couldn't just select some normal RBI recruits that didn't have an army of skeletons in their closet?

It's the FBI, they're all bad guys.

No I don't think so, I think she's being forced to work for them somehow.
This is another thing that's bugged me about recent episodes. In all the early episodes in the past and current all the trainees had some kind of code they lived by and were willing to sacrifice everything for it. Now all they need is an electronic voice on the phone threatening them and they cave immediately

I'll get back on it, I just want to see who's the Terrorist. That show went a tad too far with the twist

They just want us to think Shelby is bad. I'm sure there's another twist.

I enjoy the show for what it is. I knew going in it was going to get so overdone with random plot lines and everything taken to 100.

I pulled the eject cord about 3 episodes ago

it's turned into a really bad show, like "24"s ugly cousin with all the writers who were rejected

The lead is so hot. However, and I hate to be this way, strong female leads are mostly a bomb to me.

The plot got kind of stupid so I stopped watching.

I hate watch it now, similar to the first season of The Following. I think I've made the comment here before that the FBI agents on that show must have been trained by the people on this show.

The writing is so bad. I just want to know who the terrorist is now, but it is still fun to point out plot holes and the shite that would just never happen in real life.

I was only able to get through the first episode b/c of that. This show is cheese to the max and I think if they weren't constantly showing ads w/her running in a tight shirt it wouldn't have lasted past 6 episodes.

Right?! She pretty much hits all my markers for me: great body, dark hair, dark skin, raspy voice. Just freaking shoot me.

This. Some of the things have been way over the top if you know anything about what really goes on at Quantico. Will probably bail after this year, hope it is not a cliffhanger on the terrorist.

So the terrorist was/is Liam. One more episode to get through. No way there will be a 2nd season of this show, but if nothing else it brought the world Priyanka Chopra and all her glory.

EDIT: I digress. Season 2 Renewed

If I hear the line "bring them to justice" one more time...


Will watch the finale next week, and then I'm done.

I bailed after the hiatus. Deleted the last 8'episodes this week. Too much good stuff on tv to waste an hour a week on this. The hot chicks could only keep me tuned in for so long.

The lead actress is phenomenally attractive and that's what all the ads focused on. If it wasn't for that, the show itself wouldn't have made it past the pilot.
