Ha, thought the same thing! Jessie was great. <3

I think it sounds intriguing, could be a hit. Female Bourne maybe. Let’s get some blockbuster network dramas popping for next fall folks!

GREAT script. Looking forward to this one.

I just wish she would gain the weight back. Too skinny now. She looked great in the first Thor movie. I guess the pressures of Hollywood…

This is like a mix of Kyle XY meets Memento for NBC with a Blacklist style twist…aka recycled combination of ideas…keep getting rich Greg Berlanti

I bet anyone could do the same thing with your ideas. Quit being so bitterly cynical.

Never gonna happen. This is the new crap pitch. Intriguing movie situation bu tunsustaunable as a TV show. In episode three does she climb out of a garbage bag?

This show sounded good from just the pitch, and now fantastic casting has made this one a must-see for me!

Another misogynistic NBC show. A woman in peril, scared, a victim… while a man must “save” her. The roles should’ve been reversed, but that would make it “different” and maybe “original”. God knows the networks like NBC don’t want that.

How did the guy who wrote that horrible Green Lantern script become such a major producer? If this goes to series he will have five shows on three different networks.

Berlanti is an acclaimed screenwriter and TV producer who has produced TV before and after the “Green Lantern” debacle.

This is a “John Doe” reboot that originally starred the Aussie

Actor (whose name I’m forgetting, but starred in Prison Break) plus the tattoos which is reminiscent of The Following. Nothing original here except having a female lead.

I like her (and agree with the guy who says she needs to gain a bit more weight!) but wow does this sound exactly like the kind of network show that goes nowhere and gets cancelled halfway through the first season.

This sounds dated… I thought NBC was trying to right the ship?
