Blindspot (NBC 2015, Jaimie Alexander, Sullivan Stapleton)
In Blindspot a vast international plot explodes when a beautiful Jane Doe, completely covered in mysterious, intricate tattoos, is discovered naked in Times Square with no memory of who she is or how she got there. But there’s one tattoo that is impossible to miss: the name of FBI agent Kurt Weller, emblazoned across her back. “Jane,” Agent Weller and the rest of the FBI quickly realize that each mark on her body is a crime to solve, leading them closer to the truth about her identity and the mysteries to be revealed.
From NBC’s press release, November 2015… NBC has ordered a second season of its hit freshman drama “Blindspot,” the #1 new series of the fall in the 18-49 demo. With Sullivan Stapleton as an FBI agent who’s not to be messed with and breakout star Jaimie Alexander now firmly established as a TV leading lady, “Blindspot” has proven to be both a ratings and critical smash. Since its Sept. 21 launch, the series has dominated the 10 p.m. Monday timeslot. The Wall Street Journal says “Blindspot” manages to exert instant powers of seduction and keep a viewer rapt,” TV Guide says the series is “a sleek and exciting showcase for Jaimie Alexander’s elaborately inked ninja,” the Los Angeles Times writes that “‘Blindspot’ comes out of the box (or that darn bag) with tantalizing, high-energy grace” and USA Today calls it one of the top five shows of the fall. “We are over the moon with the success of ‘Blindspot,’ and want to thank our producers and amazing cast for creating one of the most riveting shows on television. Jaimie and Sullivan have done an amazing job of ratcheting up the tension each week in trying to unravel the mystery of Jane’s tattoos,” said Jennifer Salke, President, NBC Entertainment. “We literally can’t wait to see what the second season will bring.”
