#Blindspot

A body covered in meaningful, and useful to the plot, tattoos is not a first… think Prison Break.  But there are significant differences.  In Blindspot they are on a woman who has no memory, a person who is rediscovering herself — and it is likely a safe assumption each week she will uncover the meaning of another one of the marks on her body.

In the first episode not 1 but 3 of the tattoos were revealed to have meaning, we also discovered that there was a particularly heavily inked area that was covering up a tattoo she had before… whatever life-changing event happened to leave her with no memory and a body covered like a treasure map full of clues.

With the “back 9” episodes having been ordered to script, it looks like we can safely hope for a complete first season of Blindspot, which hopefully means a satisfying arc, with a few answers along the way.

The cast includes Jaimie Alexander (“Thor: The Dark World,” “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”), Sullivan Stapleton (“300: Rise of an Empire,” “Strike Back”), Marianne Jean-Baptiste (“Broadchurch,” “Without a Trace”), Rob Brown (“Treme”), Audrey Esparza (“Black Box”), Ukweli Roach (“The Royals”) and Ashley Johnson (“Much Ado About Nothing”).

2006 – Hiro’s Father was cast on Heroes

Just because the proverbial spring cleaning needs to be done, doesn’t mean it is always fun, but in this case, a few rare gems have surfaced… like running across a tv guide article from 2006 mentioning both Masi Oka (currently on Hawaii Five-O) and George Takei. I remember when that plotline came out Heroes and how much I enjoyed the casting of George Takei as Hiro’s father.
