A fight between faith and personal desire.

With Actors Lke Aaron Paul & Hugh Dancy The Path builds one hell of a foundation for seasons to come. It demonstrates the potential to grow deeper and more rewarding as it matures, like any drama Katims has been associated with. The Path begins with Eddie already suspicious of his faith, following an encounter with a defector and his own personal revelations about the group's leadership following a trip to a healing center in Peru. In the episodes that follow, a great deal of the dialogue centers on his uncertainty in relation to whether or not to defect himself. It's a big decision, to be sure, but the writing offers little in the way of nuance or original ideas each time Eddie is volleyed back and forth between the spiritual and philosophical certainty of Meyerism and the depressing yet liberating instability of "the real world." The Path is unfortunately content to focus on a variety of rote melodramatic byways that give little insight into the fight between faith and personal desire, or the psychological relief and societal bliss that believers expect from their chosen religions.

This has to go down as the most inane and laziest script ever written for TV. There is the story line that as they storm the Statue of Liberty its point out that there is only 3 FBI agents going to comb the island to which JANE gets to go because she speaks Chinese. I mean in all of NYC there is only 3 FBI agents to handle the situation. WTF? What happened to all the FBI agents or NYPD tactical squad? Its just not addressed figuring the viewers will just accept the situation as the writer wrote. Then, the Chinese dissident is left alone in a hospital and the FBI does not have the guy under guard. What if he just walked out? Lame lame lame. And those two examples was just the tip of the iceberg. Worst writing/story structure I have ever seen. These guys should be striped of their WGA membership. I was looking forward to seeing the story arc of the story. However, I'm afraid this inane writing will be in every episode so I'm done. Its going to go off the rails and not goanna waste my time with such poor story structure and writing.

I am waiting................

Nice season...
