Status of new fall shows

[astri13]

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.

I stopped watching Agents of Shield. I know there are people who seem to like it, but i am starting to wonder if they are just telling themselves they have to like it because it is Whedon and everybody just wanted to like it...

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!

I liked the most recent episode of Agents of SHIELD. If that becomes the general quality of the show, I think it will be entertaining generic fun. Then again I'm completely absorbed in comic fandom (comics, movies, animated shows etc.) and am mostly happy that there's another part of that universe out there. I couldn't care less about the Joss Whedon aspect about it; I never got the hype about his person anyway.

Sleepy Hollow is just beautiful.

I like The Tomorrow People well enough but I'm much more interested in John, the leader of the Tomorrow People, than in Stephen. Stephen is an idjit with issues, not my cuppa. But John and his connection to Jed have me interested. I wonder if he's Jed's son - the actors look really similar - and thus Stephen's cousin...
