The Untouchables: Season 1

1x15 Star Witness

This episode was good, but it annoyed me at the same time. The one thing I hate about these film noir type movies, is how dumb they make almost all the female actresses. Not only that, I've notice if they were blonde, they tend to make the female characters even dumber. You know, the show is only an hour, I really don't want to say too much out of concern of letting loose too many spoilers. But, I will say this about what I hated.......... There was a part in the show where a man and his family are supposed to all be in "witness protection." Long story short. Daughter comes home with mom and two cops after a school recital. She tells her mom that she's gonna call her friend, be cause the friend missed the recital. Well, turns out the friend really was the mob trying to kill them and the girl didn't know it. The person on the phone convinces the daughter to go outside by herself, and the mob subsequently hits her via car. This was stupid that the mother wasn't paying attention, and they are all supposed to be in witness protection. Yeah, so I think that was really stupid, but the ending was cool. I guess every cool show has to have a few stupid scenes in them.
