I really hate it when a show I’ve been watching finally comes to an end. Without fail, I find I’m always asking myself; what am I supposed to watch now? For now the answer comes in the form of Human Target.
The series follows the life of character Christopher Chance. A unique private contractor who was once an assassin, now turned bodyguard/security expert. He is hired by his clients to protect their lives, but doesn’t do it in a regular way – he integrates himself into their lives and becomes a part of it until the threat is over. Each episode focuses on a different case/client, but one thing that doesn’t change is him kicking the bad guys asses – I guess that’s one of the things that make this show, along with the witty humour.
The supporting characters aren’t too bad either. You have Laverne Winston who is Chance’s Business Partner/Agency Manager. He’s the more serious guy of the three. You also have the token computer nerd/hacker guy, Guerrero. An interesting detail comes about on Guerrero later on in the first season, Which I didn’t quite expect to be honest.
At times the show does feel a bit corny, but none the less it’s an enjoyable watch every week if you’re not too skeptical, enjoy reasonable plots with lots of action. Watch the trailer →
