Human Target

Bullets, Ladies, and Questionable Morality: 5 Reasons Why Human Target is the Pleasant Surprise of 2010

Written By drunkenscholar + on April 2nd, 2010 at 10:35 pm

1. Jackie Earl Haley - One of the most fun characters on television is actually a character on this show. Jackie Earl Haley plays Guerrero- a wet works fixer who is brought on at Chance's insistence and Winston's (McBride) dismay. Haley is the perfect guy to play this role: a guy who is nerdy and sarcastic, but at the same time ruthless and and dangerous enough to stave off a beating by nonchalantly promising to kill the thugs in their homes. His loyalties are questionable and his morals are nonexistent, but he is an absolute joy to watch opposite McBride's Winston who is the moral rock of the trio.

Human Target airs on Fox on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.

I agree with everything. Really well done show, and my second favorite new one from this season.

I could not agree more. What a great article that sums up exactly why I went from 'well it doesn't look like anything special but I'll give it a try for JEH and Chi McBride' to 'What am I going to do if this doesn't get renewed?!' It's a great show and I really hope it gets a shot to grow.
