Just saw the pilot episode of Human Target on Hulu. Not bad. The highlight for me was Jackie Earle Haley as a professional investigator/hacker/all-around creeper named Guerrero. You may recall Haley as Rorshach in Watchmen, where he turned in an A+ performance in a B- production. In this show, too, Haley seems far more interesting than the rest of the cast. Let’s hope that this doesn’t turn into a Zachary Quinto-in-Heroes situation, where diehard fans suffer through scenes featuring the rest of the cast while waiting for serial-killer Sylar to appear and punish the other characters for their wooden acting and poor comedic timing. If you’ve ever seen Milo Ventimiglia attempt to display an actual human emotion other than “pissed off” or “pouting,” you know what I mean. Left: Ventigmiglia tries to achieve a non-annoying facial expression. Fails.
