Introduction to Blindspot, Season 4, Episode 6 TV Show Review by Ms. H

Jaimie Alexander’s character returns at the beginning of the episode during a physical drill to crack a code which plays out as if it is the real thing.  I must admit, this was an interesting beginning to this episode. Now, let’s see how Jaimie Alexander was cast during the rest of the 6th episode of season 4 of Blindspot.

Jaimie Alexander’s Character Appearances in Blindspot, Season 4, Episode 6 TV Show

It looks as if Jaimie Alexander’s character remains just barely in this episode with limited dialogue. The larger plot (among many) includes someone (once again) from inside the bureau suspected of wrongdoings.  

Subplot of Blindspot, Season 4, Episode 6 TV Show Review by Ms. H

The numerous subplots include corrupt intrusion of lobbyists in voting on certain issues as well as a seemingly blackmail scheme -- which of course, ended not being blackmail at all.  On top of this, there is the ex-FBI agent whose mission is to find out information that may be damaging to a company that would affect it keeping a government contract. Let’s not forget the interrogation of an FBI agent relative to the ex-FBI agent who is now in London. If you watch this episode and can follow all of these subplots, you may lose interest in the show due to the numerous different stories -- none of which are especially exciting to watch with Jaimie Alexander’s character sinking lower in visibility.

Problems with Blindspot, Season 4, Episode 6 TV Show Review by Ms. H

I think the main problem with this episode is there is no huge catastrophe that would require the expertise of Jaimie Alexander’s character. Instead there are small type feats, many of which did not require her presence.  Additionally, this episode was a hodgepodge or conglomerate of plots including one that involves --- wait for it -- China. Go figure.

Assessment of Blindspot, Season 4, Episode 6 TV Show Review by Ms. H

Overall, unfortunately, I found this episode to be disappointing.  Looks like the writer was trying to squeeze too many different scenarios into one episode and it came out not as a well-written script, but as one where seemingly everyone was tripping over each other. To round out this episode which seemed to drag on -- the cliffhanger scene is Jaimie Alexander's character's husband holding a weapon while facing her after tracking her previous whereabouts using a gps device.

Hopefully, the next episode will be less chaotic, and be more focused on a central issue. A plus would be if the episode concentrated on Jaimie Alexander’s character, especially since she is supposedly the star of the show.
