I don't buy the premise that John Doe can't get a date.....
This only relates to the character not being able to find a girlfriend ....
Sure, he implodes during the speed dating episode. Sure he gets one hot woman to kinda like him. He gets that beautiful British Scientist for all of two episodes. But being a man myself, I was struck by the impossibility of it all....
1) He's good looking. He had a model face and a male stripper body. So it doesn't matter how quirky or odd he is, women will swoon at his handsome quotient.
2) He's RICH. Hello? Handsome, athletic AND rich?
3) He's smart, compassionate and wants to help people.
What the Hell? The scriptwriters don't know women, at least women on THIS planet. They would be throwing themselves at this guy.
A more plausible recurring plot point would be for him to be fending off advances by lovelorn women or schemers or con artists or gold diggers.
But to force the story to make him 'isolated' and 'lonely' doesn't make sense. Now if they had cast an UNATTRACTIVE actor to play the role, wow, talk about being able to mine hundreds of script ideas on human interaction.
Don't get me wrong. I liked the show and I like Dominic Purcell. I just can't ever see the guy having problems getting a date with a woman. IN the speed dating episode, even the 'geek' women didn't choose him. WTF? :D
Dr. Kila Marr was right. Kill the Crystalline Entity.share
