Is anyone besides me watching the new FBI series on CBS? I think the first three episodes have been pretty good.

I was a little concerned going in since it is produced by Dick Wolf, but I found it refreshing that in the second episode they actually had Muslim terrorists as the bad guys. Maybe getting away from NBC did him some good.

Watched the first episode and decided - nope.

Going to give The Rookie a try tonight - only because I like Nathan Fillion.

Skipping FBI. Watched some of the Rookie, got about half way through it. I may finish it but I have some issues:

1. Training Officer with 3-5 days of beard growth; he is a uniformed police officer not an operator in Afghanistan. Mad
2. Sergeant engaging in a pattern of age discrimination, basically telling the TO to wash the older guy out on the FIRST day......he wouldn't have stayed a sergeant long. Roll Eyes
3. Older guy hooked up with hot younger girl.....only in our dreams or with a HUGE bank account. Frown

Lol, I was thinking the same thing jsbcody. I also got a kick out of the chick in plain clothes who I guess was supposed to be some kind of boss. Dismissed Sgt. Yeah right, dismiss this bitch.

Big fan of Missy Peregrym. I'm liking it so far.

I could do without the muslim dude, but...what can you do?

Did not make it through the first episode. Though the plot and acting sucked.

Not too bad even with the PC type-casting of a woman and a Moooslum.

Wow. I watched the rest of the Rookie.......it is horrendously bad. What a bunch of horseshit. Either they have no technical advisors (actual people who did patrol duties) or they choose to ignore everything the advisors told them. I am off to re-watch the last season of Bosch to get the memory of the crap I just watched out of my head.
