It's nice to see detective Joe, I mean, #JesseLMartin back on TV!
When the Flash finished up, I was so sad to know I would not be able to see Jesse and ESPECIALLY #DanielleNicolet on TV every week. Well at least Jesse is back with a new series called #TheIrrational.
Applied psychology crime series have been done and overdone so much and I find them terrible BUT all I care about is Jesse working again and I look forward to his wonderful energy and presence.
Just a reminder that #TheIrrational begins airing tomorrow with #JesseLMartin.
It's another one of those typical cliche procedurals about the "smart civilian guy" who helps incompetent, unimaginative, and obviously undereducated law enforcement solve crimes ... be it with psychology, applied psychology, mentalism, magic, or just plain critical thinking ... these shows have been done a million times over. ALL I care about is seeing Jesse working 👍🏾 I'm happy for him.
First episode of #TheIrrational starts out with a monologue about basically how people are stupid and irrational and then goes into a scene where the psychology professor proceeds to talk rationally to a guy holding a baby and a gun hoping to overwhelm him with decision fatigue. It works 95% of the time he says ... the other 5% oh well 🤣
It's a bad show 😞 but I think for the average viewer that uses LOT skills, it will be absolutely fascinating and teach them new things that they won't apply.
@thewebrecluse It's a bad pilot but considering I'll listen to Jessie L Martin read the phone book...I'm in lolol
@TheBoostress Pilots are designed to get money. They are condensed ideas like sizzle reels to give a clear impression of what the show promises to deliver. I have never felt that pilots should be shown to audiences as they give a really false impression of the true focus of the show. Pilots are usually quite terrible. This one does it's job as far as selling a boardroom of men with money to invest in more episodes ... it's also awful. 🤣 I am glad Jesse has work though.
@TheBoostress yes these kinds of shows are great for watching while I work out ❤️ It will be nice to see Jesse for a while at least a season ❤️
@thewebrecluse hopefully it gets a season lol
@TheBoostress the pilot convinced NBC to give it a full season order back in December so we will at least have the 1. 👍🏾
@thewebrecluse thanks for the info! I didn't even know he had a series until i saw an ad on the side of a bus last week lolol
@thewebrecluse I didn't say it wasn't awful. But truthfully not even the trailer gave no indication that it would be good lol. Still gonna watch lol cuz Jessie. I'm hoping it will get better. 🤞🏾😆 (not holding breath lol - will be good background noise tho)
