Watchmen season 1 episode 4

OBVIOUSLY SPOILERS




That was the TV show version of the minutemen that they kept referencing throughout the season. Remember, the nerdy FBI agent who was working the projector and slept with agent Blake said that show was riddled with inaccuracies. Complete garbage I think he called it. This seems to be one of those inaccuracies. “Artistic license” for the sake of making a more compelling TV program.


Also, it seems that no one outside of captain metropolis (and maybe lady trieu) ever found out that hooded justice was actually Will, so it makes sense that the show would have assumed he was white.






As for the wider episode, the whole thing was basically an out of body flashback. Sister Knight found out that her grandfather was hooded justice, who devoted his life to fighting the clan. That fight culminated with the hanging of chief Judd. Whether he was a genuine clan believer or just using the 7th Calvary to facilitate whatever plan they are hatching up with the senator is still yet to be determined. But given the gray lines this show clearly toes, I’m going assume that Judd wasn’t all bad, and that Will doesn’t have a full understanding of the motives of the man he killed. Lady trieu might though, and I’m going to assume that she’s exploiting Will’s rage to pull his strings for whatever play she’s making. Should find that out next week, can’t wait. Show is 100.

The season long thread wasn’t anywhere to be found near the front page and did not come up when I searched for it. So settle down Nancy. The search interface that chicken has put together for this site mirrors msdos.
