Sometimes, it’s nice for TV to carry a certain level of predictability — because at least that means it’s rooted in some discernible trajectory or consistent characterization or something . Not The Event though! Sure, there are times when, say, you could predict Thomas choking when he pulls a gun on his mother, but that’s less a character-based level of predictability, and more a we-can’t-kill-Laura Innes’-character level of predictability. The former leaves you nicely pleased with your own cleverness; the latter leaves you in a bloodied heap on your couch.
