did anyone catch the pilot tonight. i thought it was kind of weak. it's a cross between America's Most Wanted and The Fugitive (or US Marshals since it is about US Marshals). the only interesting thing about the show so far is that it's based in Houston. it's nice to see the Houston overhead shot during the intro. definitely like the national exposure. the previews at the end of the show do show some promise. maybe better "fugitives".
not sure how that's possible, all i heard during their newscasts is CHASECHASECHASECHASE.......so freaking annoying..it was cool at the beginning, but they went overboard. The show wasnt even that good. I might catch the episode with "t-bag" from Prison Break though, since he's always a great bad guy.
the promo they had about houstonians talking about the show was horrible.... "i have a friend who works at ben taub"...so what, they didn't film it there? They simply mentioned it!
why do they have to film it in dallas? I watched it last night and i'll keep watching it..it's kinda like Justified but less better. Hey the hot gardener is in this show! I'm cool with that.
the pilot was filmed in Houston. What is strange is that both new shows based in Houston are filmed in Dallas. I thought it was better than Lonestar, but that isn't saying much.
From what I understand there were better incentives from the Dallas film commission. Not sure what exactly. Houston needs to step it up.
Robocop was filmed in Ducking Fallas and HERE, but was based in Chicago. EDIT: FAIL. You're right, sir. I meant Dee-troit. Cheaper whor--I mean, actors. It happens this way with cheaper production companies. You don't see big-time productions happening here. I would like to keep talking about this here topic. There isn't much to discuss about it, other than to get others to say "I agree. Dallas Sucks."
During KPRC's special, the director, i believe, said they thought about filming in houston, but had a complete crew already based in dallas and they also felt they need the ability to portray different locations and cities and he thought it Dallas could make that happen. The shows has a few Prison Break connections and that was filmed in Dallas area as well. Everything was filmed in Dallas, including the pilot. The show is only set in houston within it's storyline.
