astri13Sleepy 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.

Date: 2013-10-20 07:24 pm (UTC)I stipped watching Rhe Tomorrow People because I liked the sidekick, but find the main character just so very bland.
Saw the first 20 minutes of Reign, but the clothing, behavior of people and furniture was just so wrong for the time, i had to stop. Again, i wanted to watch becauae it has Anne of Green Gables and the hot cop partner from King.... but no.
Again.... got for The Blacklist!

Date: 2013-10-20 07:43 pm (UTC)I think everyone is just very confused because it totally misses Whedon`s usual quirks. I mean, I was bored to tears during the Pilot for Firefly, too, but couple episodes in, I could see it as a Whedon-show. This one? Blandy McBlanderson.

Ha, exactly.

Yeah, I read about that, the not recapturing the era`s feel.
Again.... got for The Blacklist!
Since everyone is reccing it, I`ve put it on my watch-list. :)
