Status of new fall shows

Sleepy Hollow - love, love, love. Definite keeper.

Agents of Shield - it`s bland, generic and boring and everything I wouldn`t expect from a Whedon show. I mean, even Dollhouse generated a feeling for me: hatred. This one? Somehow I`m feeling so confused because I SHOULD like it and apparently, I`m missing something because I don`t. Buzzuh?

The Tomorrow People - what do you know, it`s bland, generic and boring, too. Doesn`t help that I find the side guy both much hotter and way more interesting than the lead. Also, if said lead is supposed to be Stephen Amell`s cousin, why isn`t he at least hot? I know, shallow, table for one.

BBC`s Atlantis - it`s like Merlin got turned into a vampire and lots its soul. Seriously, why is this so boring? There isn`t even trashy fun and slash. That was all these writers ever managed and now they don`t even get this right.

Haven`t watched Reign yet but word of mouth ain`t so great to begin with anyways.

In terms of my returning shows, they all do okay right now. The only one I`m side-eyeing atm is Vampire Diaries. At least they explained one of the most boring romances in TV.

You should check out The Blacklist. It is anything but generic and boring.

It really is a great show, isn't it? Reddington is somewhat like Hannibal, but, yet, very different. Such a great character and wonderfully played by Spader!

I don't really know what to make of the show yet, but my brain insists that Alan Shore changed sides and - being as brilliant as he obviously is - became this top notch criminal named Red who now fucks with the FBI for kicks. (Because everyone needs a hobby.) :D
It's not boring so far IMO.

Okay, I`ll give it a shot. :) So far, apart from SH, this year`s crop of shows has been really disappointing.

Absolutely agree with you!
