Warehouse 13 General Discussion/Appreciation

[pjt]

Totally ruined any sort of believablity they have as law enforcement officers. Yes, the Secret Service protects the President and Veep but they also protect out money supply. They investigate counterfeit money and counterfeiters in the US and (I think) around the world.

They primarily have to make sure, that these funny objects stay locked up, and won't be used anymore.

I like this episode, by the way, and it starts to get me intrigued, which is good.

Agreed, and I hate to sound like a hard a$$, but as law enforcement officers they should have reported the perpetrators to the FBI. Yes, the money is insured through various government programs, but still, it's the tax payers who pay for it.

Personally, I liked this second episode. I will continue watching next week.

Interesting premise, although the ending was mawkish and unbelievable. And yes, I'm calling unbelievable despite the content of the ep itself.

Spoiler:

Saying "it wasn't about the money" is a lie because it WAS about the money- they needed it in order to buy back the music. And making one person/family happy doesn't do much for all the people whose money was stolen. Or the banks themselves. There's a trickle-down effect. I remember reading about it in Going Postal by Terry Pratchett.

The point is that just because the money is going to a "good" cause doesn't make it right. That's faulty reasoning and any REAL cop (or professional or, hell, anyone with an ounce of COMMON SENSE) would know that and would object.

Still, I'm curious to see where some of these elements are headed. I'm guessing that the

Spoiler:

"You have to stop her" thing either ties in to Mrs. Fredericks or is going to be part of some season arc thing. Although I'm still leaning towards Mrs. F. Who is she? What does she want? Does she REALLY have everyone's best interests at heart by locking this stuff away or does she have an ulterior- and dangerous- motive?

Or it'll be some precocious little tyke we meet later on who turns out to be the personification of Evil or something.

I haven't got around to watching it yet either, tho i didn't watch the pilot until last weekend.

Spoiler:

I liked the second episode. I liked seeing Artie with the newer gadgets. Though I thought it was odd Pete and Myka didn't use any atypical gadgets. Though it could be an interesting contrast with Pete and Myka being fairly "normal" people, with Artie using the wild crazy gadgets when he leaves the warehouse. "Oh sorry, had a kodac moment" It definitely looks like theres some story arc buildup.

[Wyrminarrd]

This show still hasn't managed to interest me, I will give it one more episode and if that doesn't do it then I will stop watching.

My problems with episode 2 were:

Spoiler:

Why didn't Myka use her freakin gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She neither drew it when pursuing the bank robbers nor when the robbers rescued their partner! She should have put several rounds into the person with the speakers in the coat.

Second thing was letting the robbers get away, there is no justification for this! It's practically like saying that you think robbery is justified if you really need the money which is just stupid and I don't believe for a second that two federal agents would act this way.

I'm enjoying the show. Its nice to see sci-fi elements mixed with humor. I especially liked Pete from the beginning. He's charming. I like Myka is on the serious side which puts her and Pete at odds with their views, as they manage to work together.

Artie is okay.

I hope to see more of CCH Pounder's character, since she is mysterious and interesting.

Come on, press play. You might like it.

[david2708]

I didn't like the first episode, but tuned in for the second to see if it got any better. It didn't-at least for me. I'll be interested to see the ratings after 5 or 6 episodes. I will probably tune in for ep 3 as a last desperate attempt to find something interesting, but after that, I'm out unless there is dramatic improvement.
To get more viewers than a great show like Rescue Me is a disgrace!!!
