Current Events > Why did they go so cheap on effects in Blacklist

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just started watching it. There's an episode where a plane blew up in mid-air and it's raining down on the ground and the parts just bounce like a few inches and that's it... no impact craters or anything. It's some of the worst CGI I've seen in an American TV show.

Also the fist fights are really poorly choreographed and it's really obvious they're not making contact. And there's always a full second delay between when someone gets shot and then the bullet hole appears and they react.

Dialogue is terrible, too.
"I think I found where they took him"
"Where?"
"A decommissioned blacksite in Baltimore"
"You think they took him to a decommissioned black site in Baltimore?"

Still up in the air about whether or not this show is worse than Criminal Minds. It's really hard to determine.
