New Fall show: Fearless

Jenny · 06-04-2003, 11:01 PM

Got the series premiere from well, some friends, and I LOVED it! Can't wait for it to come out this Fall on Tuesday on the WB.

that's IT?! no quick run-down, no pix of hot guy/girl to post, nothing? you're a tease jenny!

haha ok

Rachael Leigh Cook (hottie!) plays the main character. She was born missing the gene for fear. (ie. Fearless) She plays an FBI agent. She's 23 in the show.

She has 2 partners, about the same ages:
Bianca Lawson ( http://us.imdb.com/Name?Lawson,+Bianca ) & Eric Balfour ( http://us.imdb.com/Name?Balfour,+Eric ), who played Calvin in Veritas: The Quest, Milo Pressman in the first season of "24", etc. I liked them both a lot, too.

Her uncle is also in the FBI, in fact, got her the job there (she transferred from someplace, with some secret or something. don't know yet). He is played by: Erich Anderson ( http://us.imdb.com/Name?Anderson,+Erich+(I) ) (check the link, cause he was in some big stuff).

In the first show, one of the guys they meet is Ian Somerhalder ( http://us.imdb.com/Name?Somerhalder,+Ian ). I think he is going to be Gaia's (RLC) love interest. He's relatively new to the acting scene, I think. But he's a cutie.

Judith Hoag & Gregory Itzin are both in it. I am not sure who, though. I think Gregory Itzin is the head FBI guy on the show and Judith Hoag may be Gaia's aunt. Her mother died when she was young then her father left (you'll find out why during the first show), so she went to live with her aunt & uncle.

From WB: ""There are four basic human emotions. Joy, anger, grief and fear. They say, of all those, nothing clouds your reason like fear. I've never had that problem." -Gaia Moore

From the executive producer of CSI and Without a Trace, this ensemble crime drama uncovers the FBI's best kept secret: the Y Unit. Society is breeding a new class of young criminals and it will take an elite division staffed with the finest young agents to infiltrate and apprehend them. The Y Unit requires a special kind of operative to succeed - much less survive. Born with a genetic defect, Gaia, 21, lacks the basic instinct her partners Ryan and Harmony must fight to control: fear. Whether Gaia's handicap is an important asset or a deadly liability for the unit remains to be seen...

From writer/executive producer Jeremy Littman (Law & Order, Profiler), writers Vincent Ngo & Evan Charnov and Jeremy Carver with Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Warner Bros. Television."

Anything else?

This show reminds me of "Birds of Prey" -- great concept, but lacking a decent script. I certainly hope the writing picks up and that the acting gets better. So far, the main character is "emotionless," not "fearless."

If you liked this show, maybe you should give "Jake 2.0" a try. It's kind of a reversal in that the show's concept is a little tired (Spiderman, Hulk, etc.), but the writing is excellent. One of the execs behind the show is David Greenwalt, from "Angel."

I have seen the first episode of that, too! Scott & I loved it! We love the main character in it. He was in Showtime's Odyssey 5 til it got cancelled.

Absolutely horrible writing. I like the characters but I didn't watch more than 3 episodes.
