Human Target Review: "Tanarak"

at .

Can we just say one thing… mind-numbing!  

This week on Tanarak, Chance is hired to help save a doctor from a major cover-up involving a mining company and a toxic chemical responsible for a miner’s death.

Our favorite part of this episode was the obvious chemistry between Chance and the lady of the week!  But come on, Chance always has the way with the ladies.  He is confident and sexy, and the women can’t stay away!  With that being said…

Tanarak Scene


We know there are many fans out there that enjoy Human Target, but honestly this show has become way to predicable.

  • Chance is hired to protect someone, and of course he is able to quite successfully, without much difficulty.  
  • Winston and Guerrero are always there to help him figure out anything he needs to solve the case.
  • There is always a bit of comedy and satire between the characters.

That is it, end of story!

Come on… let’s face it.  Human Target is a redundant, repetitive action thriller.  

We learned nothing more of Chance’s past, and I think this is the main problem with the show.  

People enjoy feeling connected to the characters they watch on TV, and there really is no connection to Christopher Chance, no connection to Winston and Guerrero.  

Chance is just a private contractor hired to defend people each week, no super human powers like portrayed in the DC comic this series is based on.  

Until next week’s identical lackluster show, we leave you with a few of our preferred Human Target quotes:
Winston: Hey. You remember what I said about that place. They don't like strangers, so don't go up there screwing around or nothing. Just blend in and keep a low profile.
Chance: Hey, it's me! | permalink
Shaw: A mercenary with a heart of gold.
Chance: I prefer death retardant specialist. | permalink
Chance: Hey, you want to take Carmine for a walk?
Winston: No.
Chance: Neither do I, so this is how he gets his exercise. | permalink
