Hiya everyone!

I like how Entertainment Alley is doing their part to spread the word that there's a new 'CHAOS' episode tonight! Hehe! ;D

So with that said, here's their little blurb for tonight's episode.


PS: I have gone ahead and unlock the thread since I'm going to go dinner soon and won't be back later tonight after the episode has aired. So feel free to post away.

Where’s the Remote Control? New CHAOS
June 11th, 2011 | Posted by Nezi



CHAOS airs tonight on CBS.


Hello lovely people! For those of you with good senses of humor, we know you are still digging the CBS show, CHAOS. There’s a new episode on tonight, because yes, they sneaked it into Saturday night and apparently left it there. In the episode, “Remote Control,” the CIA sends the CHAOS team when they learn that a known terrorist is hiding in Paris. Before they get a chance to capture him, the French government comes in and closes down the operation. Of course, they doesn’t mean the CHAOS team is really giving up. The boys just have to continue their operation and capture the man, but without causing an international incident.

On CHAOS, Freddy Rodríguez plays the newest member of the CHAOS team, Rick Martinez. Eric Close plays Michael Dorset, a former psychologist who is the teams tactical expert. James Murray plays Billy Collins, a Scottish man who was booted from British Intelligence, deported from his own country, and who definitely has a way with the ladies. Tim Blake Nelson hilariously plays “human weapon” Casey Malick, who can beat his way out of any amount of trouble. Carmen Ejogo plays Fay Carson, Dorset’s ex who also works with the CIA. Christina Cole plays Martinez’s new flame, Adele Ferrer, who also happens to be one of the Deputy Directors at work. And Kurtwood Smith plays the other Deputy Director, H.J. Higgins, who would love nothing more than if he could close down the CHAOS department.

On tonight’s episode of CHAOS, Carlos Leal guest-stars as Luc Mounia, and Patrick Bauchau guest-stars as Renard. Other guest-stars for the evening are Steve Hytner as Barry, Tony Ali as Hassan, Rick Overton as Operative Blanke, and Matthew Harrison as Higgins’ Aide. “Remote Control,” was written by Katie Ford and Vivian Lee, and directed by Fred Gerber.

CHAOS airs tonight (June 11) at 7:00pm CT/8:00pm ET on CBS.

Hiya everyone!

Okay... Just finished watching it... and I have to say there was one thing that bugged the hell out of me watching this episode...

Is anyone actually buying the whole Michael/Fay relationship? Gesh... Last week was bad, but this week was just plain WORST!

Argh... Everytime that came up, I just wanted to scream there... Seriously... They should just dial it down or get rid of Fay already... She's seriously starting to annoy me and that attitude of hers isn't helping her.

Argh... This is one relationship I can safely say that I'm NOT going to ship for... and that's saying a lot...

Usually Eric has good chemistry with his female co-stars... but this...

Argh! Nope... NO chemistry whatsoever. You can clearly see a BIG difference between his character Martin and 'Sam' and Michael and 'Fay'.

And it doesn't help with the way they are writing his character either... making him look pathetic and 'clingy'.

I think Billy and Casey's reaction were spot on this 'whole' pathetic 'love saga'... That's exactly how I felt too... wishing that the ODS could finally dump her body into the nearest ocean as soon as possible! ;D

Hiya everyone!

All right... Here are the YouTube clips along with my usual short commentaries! Hehe!

Keep in mind that this episode was originally Episode 1.05. So things are still a bit out of whack.


On a somewhat unrelated note, I have to say... the commercials for the Saturday nights airing are way better than the ones they used to show on Friday nights. A lot more in touch with the average cosummer that can actually afford the advertised products!

At least, watching the commercial for McDonald's made me hungry for some Chicken Nuggets and trying out those new sauces! LOL!

Seriously, they should just put food commercial on there and have Eric do his thing where his character eats! Guarantee it will boost in sales there! LOL!

And it certainly helps that the first clip is called 'Who's Hungry?'? Do I detect a common theme here? LOL!



[glow=red,2,300]Episode 1.07 -

'Remote Control'[/glow]

1. CHAOS - Who's Hungry?

- Ahh... This is where they finally show the infamous scene where Michael goes 'We each have our own special skills, Martinez... I lead..." *nods to Billy* "He charms people..." *nod over to Casey* "He hurts people... and you translate..."

You know... The exasperated and 'I'm ready to kill someone' look on Casey's and Billy's face is how I feel about the whole 'Fay' storyline.

Argh!

Seriously, that 'Fay' character is almost on top of my list of characters I hate... Jack taking the top spot with Fay now following close behind.

Give me Season 1-3 Sam any day... At least she would put Michael into place... Hehe!

Now that's worth something tackling over in a fic... Hmm!



Clip Description:

Published on Jun 11, 2011 by CBS

Martinez is stuck monitoring communication while the rest of the team goes out to dinner.



2. CHAOS - Friend's Don't Spy On Friends

*giggles* LOVE the scene with Michael here... You can really see him stepping up as the role of the 'leader' of the group and taking intiative.

Although I had to laugh at his interpretation of 'progressive thinking'... which was smashing things just to find the bug!

See... I rather take this 'Michael' over to the 'pathetic/clngy/desperate/not even funny' Michael that they have been showing during the crappy 'Fay' storyline. Argh!



Clip Description:

Published on Jun 11, 2011 by CBS

The team figures out how French intelligence knew they were in France.



3. CHAOS - Professional Dishwasher

*giggles* Oh Michael... See... This is what I'm talking! Give me more of this version of 'Michael in action'!

I had to laugh when he grabbed a frying pan... Yes, you read correctly... a frying pan when the guys were surprised by a sudden arrival of someone at the apartment that they were currently snopping at!

Sure... Gun vs. Frying Pan... No contest who's going to win there... LOL!

But as Casey and Billy argue back and forth about their 'throwing knife' skills, Michael steps up and yanks the door of the shaddy refigerator and plows right ahead...

Gun vs. Big Refigerator Door... I give you one guess who won... LOL!

And you know what else had me laughing... Everything is revolving around food for Michael... even in his fighting! Frying pan... and the door to the refigerator...

Man... That idea is SO ripe for a fanfic there! ;D
