The Messengers gets more interesting now that its angels have started interacting, but still suffers from clunky characterization.
Luckily, recently-awoken coma patient Rose is on hand to explain the premise of the show for everyone involved.
Cant endanger your role as The Expositioner with any personal drama of your own.
(Finally, Ichabod and Abbie get some help.)
Until The Man tempts them into doing evil, that is.
How willThe Messengersgo about stopping this?
That is less clear.
Apparently, they will just hang out together and angel-y stuff will happen?
The exploration of these angels personal lives can feel shoehorned into the larger plot.
The show is too unfocused, trying to do too much with too little efficiency or ambition.
And what of the logistics of this world?
Are The Messengers dead?
Who is the seventh angel Rose promises will eventually show him or herself?
What are the extents of their respective abilities?
These all seem like questionsThe Messengersshould be asking themselves.
