TV review by Merrill Barr, co-host of The Idiot Boxers

Show: Persons Unknown
Airs: NBC, Mondays, 10pm
Episode: “Exit One”

Episode synopsis: Two of the hostages are given the opportunity to leave and one of them is not who they appear to be.

Major developments: The two major developments are when Tori is taken at the end of the episode and we learn that Joe is involved with the taking of the abductees as is the Chinese restaurant manager.

What rocked: Before learning the truth about Joe, the whole cat & mouse game that he and Janet play with an 18 wheeler is pretty cool. Of course once the big reveal comes, I was quite happy, as it was something I have been expecting for a while. I am also liking the Renbe storyline so far. I like how the show is slowly building it up to something.

What sucked: The whole Tori story line started to get on my nerves this episode. I get it, she has daddy issues, no need to shove it down my throat.

Final thoughts: The twists were good, but this wasn’t one of the better episodes. But I am looking forward to seeing more.

What’s next: While searching for Tori the group discovers a new abductee.
