Hiya everyone!

I have updated the first post with the official press release from CBS. Personally, I'm really excited for this episode!

Former spy/agent Lee Stetson is going to be on this episode! OMG!

And best part yet, he and Michael will share lots of screentime together since it's going to be a 'Michael' centric episode!!! Wohoo!!!



Edited to add: I have finally figured out why CBS is showing 2 'CHAOS' that night when originally they had 2 episodes schedule for the July 4th weekend.

Well, it's quite simple actually. That night, NBC is going to premiere their late midseason show 'Friends with Benefits' with 2 new back-to-back episodes.

So my guess my guess is that CBS got wind of it and wants to see how 'CHAOS' is going to do against that new 1 hour drama show... by airing 2 new back-to-back episodes as well.

This is going to be interesting to say the least.

Let's just hope that 'CHAOS' can actually beat the new NBC show!

So be sure to tune in!!!

Hiya everyone!

TV Guide has updated the episode summary for this particular episode. Interestingly enough, they didn't have any sort of info on this episode except for the airing date... until the official press release was released.

It makes me wonder if they were holding back and waiting for the official word after CBS gave them a tentative schedule there. After all, they did have the summaries for the other episodes.

Note that the airing date has been changed accordingly.

Hiya everyone!

Oh whoa... Talking about putting those clips on YouTube earlier! I found the episode clips that CBS put up every week after the episode aired.

I guess we got an earlier treat this week! YAY! Hehe!

And OMG! From what I have seen so far... This is going to be a GREAT episode!

For now, I will just post the clips and the clip description. I post comments after the episode aired.

If you don't want to be spoiled, don't watch those clips! But if you are like me... weak, go right ahead! LOL! Hehe!

I will open up the thread up for discussion after the episode airs this Saturday night.

'Glory Days'[/glow]

1. CHAOS - I Just Bought This Coat!

You know... Watching last night's episode, I think Eric got a cold in this one. Aww... Poor guy! *hugs*

You really can tell from this scene and the scene before that, he really sounds stuffy like he did on 'Without A Trace' whenever he got a cold.

Then again, with them doing lots of on location shoots in freezing cold, it's really no suprise there.



Clip Description:

Uploaded by CBS on Jun 22, 2011

After the CIA uncovers a private security contractor's attempts to place moles in US embassies, they start a foot race that ends with Casey getting electrocuted!



2. CHAOS - I Can Handle Anything

A little sit down and drink between Michael and his former mentor, Ray Bishop! I really like this scene as the two of them went tete-a-tete here.



Clip Description:

Uploaded by CBS on Jun 22, 2011

Michael and Rick distract Michael's recruiter while Billy and Casey look through his apartment, and get in a physical alteration with people claiming to be FBI agents.



3. CHAOS - He Took the Bait

- The look on the guys' faces as they listened in to the coversation... not exactly going the way they had hoped for... is pretty hiliarious if you ask me! LOL!



Clip Description:

Uploaded by CBS on Jun 22, 2011

Michael's recruiter collapses after he is poisoned while he is performing a sting operation.



4. CHAOS - This Is One For the Books

- This clip is freaking hiliarious! Oh man! LOL!

I can't stop laughing! The comedy/humor is totally spot on!



Clip Description:

Uploaded by CBS on Jun 22, 2011

Casey chases a suspect through the hospital and the rest of the team members continue their pursuit in a car when he escapes.



5. CHAOS - Valuable Asset

- And we get the ending with Ray and the ODS guys sharing a drink... and I really like it.

I also like the fact that they have kept the whole 'romance/soap' stuff to a minimum here... especially between Rick and Adele. It's there, but it's 'not' in the face kind of way.

As for 'Fay'.... HA! She was barely present in this.

If you ask me, the later episodes clearly showed that the writers finally shoved the whole crap 'Fay' storyline into the closet and never to be mentioned again.

THANK god for that! I rather have scenes of Michael between his two crazy dads!



Clip Description:

Uploaded by CBS on Jun 22, 2011

Higgins begrudgingly commends Bishop before giving him a stern warning. Later, Bishop goes out for drinks with the team.

You can find those clips at the official CBS site as well as the complete episode for Episode 1.10.

Hiya everyone!

I saw this on Wednesday night, but decided to save it for today to post it! Hehe!

Much to my pleasant surprise, 'CHAOS' made it the Zap2It via TV MSN's 'Tonight's Picks' list for Saturday night!

Wohoo!!! The last time it was listed on anyone list has been for the 'Pilot'. So this is a very, very nice surprise.

Aside from that, 'CHAOS' is mentioned FIRST on the list along with a nice picture of Eric!


I will post a snippet and then a screencap of it. ;D

PS: It seems to me that Zap2It didn't get the schedule change there since it has 'Criminal Minds' listed at 9pm even though they have 2 new 'CHAOS' back-to-back episodes scheduled for the night.

But much to my pleasant surprise, they finally posted something. I just love how excited they sound for Episode 1.10 - 'Glory Days'. ;D

Twice The ‘Chaos’ on CBS Tonight – 6.25.11
June 25th, 2011 | Posted by Nezi



2 New Episodes of CHAOS tonight!


That’s right my dears, CBS decided to play two brand new episodes of Chaos for us tonight, however out of sequence they might be. This show is quite a gem, so it’s a bit sad that it was punted over to Saturday nights so quickly. But, I’m certain the few of us that are watching are enjoying the goings on in the CIA’s Clandestine Administration and Oversight Services (CHAOS) branch quite a lot! So, the first episode of Chaos will air at its regular time tonight, with the second episode airing right after.

On Chaos, Freddy Rodríguez plays new ODS member, Rick Martinez, who seems to be fitting into his strange new team quite nicely. Eric Close plays Michael Dorset, the team’s leader and tactical genius. James Murray plays Billy Collins, the Scottish ladies man who was booted from British Secret Service and his own country but is a nice fit to the ODS team. And, the team’s small but deadly human weapon, Casey Malick, is played hilariously by Tim Blake Nelson. Christina Cole plays Deputy Director Adele Ferrer, who has a thing for newbie Rick, but still has to play up to her boss. Dorset’s ex, Fay Carson is played by Carmen Ejogo, and she tends to still root for him and his ODS boys. And finally, smarmy Director Higgins is played by Kurtwood Smith.

First up this evening is the Chaos episode, “Defending Sophia,” the ODS team takes off for another country when a U.S. ally is assassinated on the eve of her country’s presidential election. When the guys get there though, they discover that the woman’s death was staged to keep her safe. The team then vows to protect her from her own government so that she may live to participate in her nations election.

Guest-stars on “Defending Sophia” are Branka Katic as Sophia Vokula, Isiah Whitlock, Jr. as Warren, Tony Ali as Hassan, Cynthia Stevenson as Violet Green, Raphael Kepinski as Jovan, Matthew Harrison as Higgins’ Aide, Martin Novotny as the Morgue Clerk, Tina Milo as the Election Worker, James Tyce as Soldier 1, and Vanessa Evancic is the girl at the roadblock. “Defending Sophia” was written by Chris Black and Bruce Zimmerman, and directed by Fred Gerber.

An old Scarecrow shows up to guest-star for the second episode of Chaos this evening, and I’m quite looking forward to that. For the second episode, “Glory Days,” the CIA discovers that a private security contractor is attempting to infiltrate U.S. Embassies with moles. So the ODS team calls in a legendary former agent to help with the investigation, even though they are not sure he still has the chops for the job.

In “Glory Days,” Bruce Boxleitner guest-stars as Ray Bishop. Also guest-starring are two other familiar actors. Even if we don’t readily know their names, they’ve been around enough that most of us are sure to recognize their faces. Gregg Henry guests as Kurt Neimeyer, and Michael Badalucco guests as Fred Farmer. Other guest-stars are Noel Johansen as Sam Crowley, Rob Hayter as the Assassin, Matthew Harrison as Higgins’ Aide, and Lesley Ewen as the older woman. “Glory Days” was written by Michelle Fazekas & Tara Butters, and directed by Sarah Pia Anderson.

You can catch Chaos tonight (June 25), with the episode “Defending Gloria” airing at 7:00pm CT/8:00pm ET, and the episode “Glory Days” airing at 8:00pm CT/9:00pm ET on CBS.

Hiya everyone!

I thought I post a few thoughts for this episode before I go back to working on the next 'Smarty' banner.

Well, I really, really enjoyed this episode!

And the part that really surprised me was the whole relationship angle between Michael, Ray Bishop AND Higgins!

That was totally unexpected and all of the sudden, I see Higgins in a completely different way!

Just think of this... Martin and his dad Victor... stern, but still looking out for his boy.

Fast forward to 'CHAOS', Michael has now 2 dads who constantly fight with one another! LOL!

Ray is the easy, fun loving guy while Higgins is all serious and stern... and let's NOT forget that both Ray and Higgins were the 'founding fathers' of the 'ODS' before Ray 'fired' Higgins...

It's like a ying/yang of Victor Fitzgerald with Michael finding himself stuck in the middle since he's the 'golden boy' and the next generation of the 'ODS'.

Totally, totally LOVED that sudden twist there.

It was definitely worth seeing 'Scarecrow' back in the action even though he 'k'oed' himself out pretty quickly! LOL!

Now that's one character I would love see coming back... just to bounce of Higgins alone and Michael getting stuck in the middle again.

Hiya everyone!

I have gone ahead and updated the post with the YouTube clips. I just simply added a few description and two more links for the full episode.

So what do you guys think of this episode? Good? Bad?

[Dricks]

I just watched this episode (YES ! I started to watch teh show yesterday and Ill finish today!)
Eric is awesome, the show is great, funny, and in this episode, Eric is more charming and handsome !!!
His relatisonship with Fay somehow reminded me of how I wanted to be like with Martin and Sam ! Not the total lack of mentions, like "they" have never existed ...
