So, you've seen the previews... I saw the previews.. and thought "SNORE!" but I remember that I thought the LOST previews looked stupid too before the show started.. so I gave Traveler a shot!!
Here's the plot:
ABC's Traveler is about Jay, Tyler and Will who have been best friends for the past two years, living, working and partying together. A simple prank to rollerblade through New York's most famous museum seconds before the museum is bombed turns Jay and Tyler into prime suspects for the explosion, but Will is nowhere to be found. In order to prove their innocence, the two try to find Will, their only alibi. The problem is, every picture from the last two years, Will managed to block his face, and they can't even prove that Will exists. To further point fingers, the explosion was triggered by a call from Jay's cell phone. Now the two must rely on each other to get away from the F.B.I while trying to get to the bottom of the conspiracy planned so meticulously by their best friend, Will Traveler.
Things I like:
1. It's like Prison Break.. but with a law graduate, a politician's son, and less prison.
2. It surprises me. I'm going to be conceited here, but it takes a LOT for a show to surprise me. I dont claim to be more creative than the writers, but... I get so angry when I predict EXACTLY what will happen before it happens.
3. There's not much on this summer.. and I need a show to replace What About Brian (since it was cancelled in case you didnt know). What About Brian was stupid anyway.
4. As a trial practice class once told me.. you should never give the jury 2 + 2 = 4. Instead, you just give them 2+2 and make them figure out the 4 part... It does that. I'm a fan.
Things I dont like:
1. Will Traveler? Really? That's the best name they could come up with for the guy that allegedly blew up the building. Then, the other two friends are SURPRISED when this "Will Traveler" cant be found in any database. Right. My name is Jessica Airplane. I mean.. that's about as dumb.
2. It's like Prison Break. I like PB, but I dont expect a repeat of the same.
Okay, well.. I ranted. Now go to ABC.com and watch it.
Now for other things................................................................................
1. WHAT IS UP with the dude who had TB on an airplane?? What the hell? Although, I read an article that said he was likely not extremely contagious (I would still be freaking out if I was on that plane). Seriously. My mind keeps playing screaming monkeys from the movie Outbreak right now.. Yikes!!!
2. I want to go canoeing or kayaking. Yeah. I really do. Wanna come? I looked it up. I think we can do it in OK.
3. Maybe its b/c Im bored.. or unemployed.. but I dont think so.. I really want to give back.. I dont mean getting involved in social organizations.. I want to volunteer. I think it's mean to get a little sister with Big Bros and Sisters b/c I dont know if I will be in T town for a long time, but I wanna do something that makes a difference like that. I LOVE animals, but I think I would bring them all home.. I am thinking Habitat for Humanity or DVIS or something like that.. Wanna come??
4. Have any of you driven to Amarillo? Curious as to how long it takes or how miserable the drive is.. Tell you why later.. :)
Love love!!
