Tru Calling -- "Perfect Storm/Grace" -- 03.31.2005


"Perfect Storm/Grace"

Spoiler:
Tru's father moves to the city so he and Jack can maintain their alliance without Tru's knowledge; quirky morgue staffer Davis continues to support Tru in her mission to save lives.


Glad I didn't watch the New Zealand feeds. Now I can watch Eliza in all her HD glory. I really, really hope this show does SPECTACULAR ratings [or somewhere close to it..].

Truly.

Can anyone do a brief summary of how last season ended. I can't remember since it has been so long.

In the season one finale, Harrison has become a "big brother" to a boy who is headed for trouble. Harry tries to help him, only to be murdered by the mom's jealous ex. After his death, he ask for Tru's help, and she does help him avoid the time and place where he would have died. However, Jack decides to teach Tru a lesson, by sending her on-again/off-again boyfriend Luc to die in Harrison's place.

After Luc's funeral, Tru confronts Jack and throws down the gauntlet, making it clear that she won't back down or give up, and that she won't let Jack win. After this confrontation, Jack leaves the cemetary and walks toward a car, where Tru's dad is waiting for him. As they talk, we learn that, just as Tru's mom had her gift, her dad has Jack's gift, and he is now helping Jack in his efforts to thwart Tru.

So are we to infer that Jack and Tru are somehow related?

Yes, but they made 6 episodes of season 2 before Fox pulled the plug.

they were going to bring it back for a full season, but then it got bumped to jan because of northern shore, then in jan they cancelled it so they could bring out the fox classic point pleasant, and now since both shows are cancelled, they had to dig for this.

Dude, don't give them any ideas..

Knowing them, they'll cancel Tru and replace it with the unaired episodes of Point Pleasant. And then after one or two episodes of that, replace that with unaired My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss eps..

Whatever. FOX is a bunch of assholes [Jack excluded]. I enjoyed both eps. Particularly Eliza's top during Grace.

I watched a few episodes from the 1st season then gave up on the series. But after watching the two episodes tonight, all I can is WOW! When did Eliza Dushku's cleavage become such a major part of the show? If they had done that earlier I wouldn't have stopped watching.

well it got about a 3.5 in the ratings, which isn't that great, so there is a good chance that fox won't renew it.

I just finished watching my tape. I really like the battle between Tru and Jack. This is what perked up the end of last season. Too bad that there is only four episodes left. I had never really seen Carly Pope until today. I might have to go buy the Popular dvds now. She is pretty hot.

I almost didn't recognize Liz Vassey because so much of her forehead was covered by her new hairstyle.

Never watched the show, but the these two episodes are voted 9.19 with over 275 votes each on TVTome. I don't understand, since all other episodes never got more than 25 votes. Heh.

I almost didn't either. She looks different with the new hairstyle.
