The lead character on "In Plain Sight" should have been a black woman. How's that for an opening line? But I'm serious. She should have been a black woman. Why do I say this? Because after watching the pilot episode of "In Plain Sight" and several episodes since, I keep thinking: what a bland show. It's kind of like watching a show that's set in New York but was shot on the gritty streets of Toronto: there's nothing special about it and it's obvious to anyone who's been there, it's not New York.
