My dumbass opinions are only outweighed by my racism.

No one forgot that I exist to defend violent cops, champion chaining down immigrants, and have trash opinions on cooking.

Abbie Cornish really sucks out loud in this, which is unfortunate.

I don't know if it is the acting writing or directing, but I concur. Getting uber upset that a guy who told you his job was a boring job turning out to be a pseudo badass agent guy is kind of :wtf:
*just tracked down wife of Bin Laden type and saved 12 hostages* I CAN'T TRUST YOU!
Really came off as dumb.

He's a suit and tie wearing motherfucker.

I just watch him and imagine the character IS Bunk and somehow landed the CIA job after his stint with Baltimore Homicide.
He needs a cigar. I expect at certain moments for him to turn to Jim and say "There you go giving a gently caress, when it's not your turn to give a gently caress". Jim has a little McNutty in him. Fake edit: Show needs Bubbles

They really blew it not having Bunk investigate the issue at the Baltimore docks.

That would have been golden, especially if there was a cameo by McNulty.

I could do with another "gently caress. gently caress Me. Motherfucker. Fuckers. gently caress." scene.

This irritated me too, as it usually does when someone reveals their secret identity as a selfless hero and their friends get mad. Literally all he'd told her was "My job is really boring, I just keep track of buying boring stuff for the government, let's not talk about it anymore because it's so boring." It's not like there was some intricate web of lies that he'd been maintaining.

When he was telling her that it was a boring job I assumed it was a wink-wink nudge-nudge cannot-talk-about-it-so-lets-drop-it thing.
Her outrage was jarringly dumb. She even griped about the scars. Did he not tell her about Afghanistan?

Bunk can run like a motherfucker when off camera.

I think they overestimated how far they could get by with brand recognition. That or Amazon just doesn't have a talented pool of screenwriters

I dunno, I quite enjoyed Goliath. Well, season one at least.

The final Jim episode, did the same plan occur in a Clancy book, or did they swipe it directly from an episode of Criminal Minds?
