Breaking In

[KT.]

Did anyone else catch the pilot to Breaking In?

It's a comedy about this college hacker guy who sort of gets recruited for a high end security job. It stars Bret Harrison (Reaper [god I miss that show]), Trevor Moore (Whitest Kids U'Know), and some other dudes (Who Probably Starred in Other Stuff).



I thought it witty and charming. Trevor Moore's performance was especially great. Overall I really enjoyed this first episode of Breaking In.

Here's the hulu link for the show in case you're an American who missed it: http://www.hulu.com/breaking-in

It looked pretty good from commercials, and I do miss Reaper also so the inclusion of Bret Harrison was attractive. Upon seeing this recommendation I intend to check ch-check check check ch-check it out.

I didn't really like Reaper or The Loop but I did always like Bret Harrison so I'll probably check it out.

It looks like a slightly cheesier version of Leverage.

No thanks.

It was stupid, but if there's nothing else on I might watch it anyway because I'm addicted to television 'n stuff.

Also I highly enjoyed the "flippidy flab stereotyped black guy whom it's okay to stereotype since we made him a genius too."

[Atmosfear]

Well based on the only other smart black guy ever put in film, he should be the second major character unexpectedly eaten by a genetically enhanced.

Because that's what Hollywood assumes is the natural predator of smart black people.

[Mr. E]

When I see a genetically enhanced I initiate my secret black people camouflage until it loses interest, then I drop camo and go get fried chicken.

Having only seen one episode, I loved it. The stereotypical black guy was so over stereo-typed that it almost seemed as it it was done on purpose.

Regardless, this is now set on my DVR.

What channel is this originally airing on?

[Atmosfear]

Shark. A genetically enhanced shark.

I think there must have been a cast change because I have no idea who that dude holding a flash light is.

That's the chick's boyfriend. Michael Rosenbaum.

Otherwise known as Lex Luthor from Smallville


Edit: it took me a few minutes when I first saw the show to figure out who that was. I didn't recognize him with hair.
