In Plain Sight (2008 - Present): Review By justincase

IPS tells the story of wit-sec (witness protection) agents in New Mexico. These are basically Federal Marshalls that are tasked with managing the relocation process and security for witness in the program.

Mary is the main character, struggling with family drama only a trailer-park veteran could appreciate.

Marshall (yes, he's a Marshall and his name is Marshall) is her partner.

There's a strange chemistry between them, although not romantic tension. Mary's got a boyfriend (a pseudo professional baseball player that seems to spend a lot of time with her sister, Brandi).

These 2 Marshalls engage in all manner of active investigations and take-downs to protect and serve, while trying to just get by in New Mexico.

NM is an interesting place for a show like this. Nothing much there... Not very "sexy" (nothing like Burn Notice's Miami setting).

Despite the ho-hum location, the story is decent and the product totally watchable and the most entertaining thing to be found on a summer Sunday.

There is a common narrative approach, here, that harkens to Burn Notice which, I think for fans of the latter, makes IPS an easier 'fit' into your schedule.

Worth a watch. What better do you have to do as a summer weekend draws to a close?
