So far, it looks pretty good. I’ve waited a long time for a new SMG series. I’m a little bummed that neither Joss or Jane Espenson are involved.
Eric C. Charmelo & Nicole Snyder created Ringer. They both worked on Supernatural and 'Til Death Do Us Part.
It is definitely a showpiece for Sarah. It’s going to be weird seeing her in danger without the Scooby Gang backing her up.
I wonder how well this show idea will work for a series? :dubious: I can see a fantastic two part episode here. But will the entire series be Sarah living the life of her dead twin? That’s going to be tricky to keep interesting.
I have it on my calendar to DVR and see if it works - I’m with you, it’s about time SMG got back to TVland - and I’d love to see Joss back, but with something OTHER than Dollhouse. Which I hated. Loved Buffy, Angel, Firefly (uberlove on that one), but Dollhouse fell below flat for our household.
While I’m sure it’s been done to death everywhere on the interwebs including here, Bring Back the Browncoats!
The Onion AV Club raved about the pilot. But the whole thing looks so aggressively stupid (plus, I hate soaps) that I don’t imagine it’ll last beyond the first season.
And I second the fact that I never watched Buffy for SMG.
I’ve seen the commercial 70 bajillion times and decided to record the pilot. I’ll probably watch at least the first few episodes and see what happens. Whether or not I continue after that will likely be largely based on how the discussions here go. If I’m not totally into a show, but there are lively weekly discussions then I tend to stick with a show much longer.
I never watched a single episode of Buffy*/Angel or anything related to it so I figured maybe I could get in on the ground floor of this if it takes off.
*However, I did put it in my Netflix Instant queue a few months ago, but got caught up in some other shows first.
I watched “Buffy” despite the bad movie that preceeded it because SMG was Kendall Hart, the daughter from hell, on “All my Children”. But I haven’t forgiven her for taking her TV success and making, not one, but two, count them, two Scooby Doo movies.
I never saw an episode of Buffy and this show looks a little too corny for me. But, a friend of mine makes an appearance in the pilot episode, so I’ll probably watch it.
I haven’t been remotely interested in any WB show since about season 4 of Smallville, and the ads I’ve seen for this do nothing to change that. The plot summary I read on IMDb makes it look absolutely ridiculous.
Based on the commercials, though, this show might make for a good drinking game: Take a shot every time somebody says “Siobhan”!
