Boss Mania
15 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Tom Kane may be a great political man but when it comes to this disease he has he cannot handle it and has moments of craziness seeing people who are not there to begin with. Carrying on from last week Kane is arresting many corrupt people. Even a simple little problem as a pot hole can set off Kane as it disturbs his mind and that's what the character has become. With quick scenes like Hannah at a meeting talking about living in her house, sex in an office and the continued inclusion of people Tom keeps seeing him telling him what to do and people are starting to notice how he is acting. Kitty once again meets with a reporter and now it seems they are setting up a storyline for the two to be giving confidential information that could drive this show in a much better direction. It seems this week they are making the relationship between Emma more then it is and which some scenes like him singing Annie it makes his transformation into a monster for me even more as he seems to be losing his mind while keeping all the power. The main thing I hate about this show being on Starz is that it seems every character has to have sex and it adds nothing to the story and is just there to show they can do it. Finally it seems that Kane is finally facing the things he sees which is best thing for the character and him saying that the people he sees are not real is a great way to develop the character. Debate time now and it is Walsh versus Zajac. During the debate a sex scandal of Zajac implodes and it messes up what him because know everyone knows. Of course he does not answer the question which causes the audience to boo at him. When Tom finds out about the death he sort of breaks his character but it is only like a second long, Kane seems to cause people to loose their lives and here is another one. Another sex scene but this time it's man on man and it's weird that this character played by Groff seems to be all over the place written and acted. At the end of the episode Kane had a mental breakdown and wow his character has gone out of control in public which is even worse. This episode for Grammar seemed to be a great one for him as the character went through a lot and for the first time this season I actually enjoyed watching the show even with the many many moments that rubbed me the wrong way.

EPISODE GRADE: B (MVP: Kelsey Grammar)
