Wondering if any of you had heard of any new TV shows you were looking forward to? Might be useful if you also posted some of your current/previous faves, to give folk an idea of your tastes.
I haven’t heard anything. I see there is a new comedy following Big Bang that I’ll probably give a try or 2, but the ads don’t look too promising.
The shows I taped last season were Big Bang, Modern Family, Good Wife, Madame Secretary, Elementary, Better Call Saul, Battle Creek. Any suggestions?
I’m looking forward to Neil Patrick Harris’ Best Time Ever (or something); I love NPH! I also think Life in Pieces has potential - looks like another multiple-families-in-the-same-family concept, like Modern Family.
I’ve seen ads for Rosewood that look promising. I’m a sucker for shows about coroners.
Since my T.V. watching consists mostly of competitive reality shows and crime dramas, this should fit right in.
I’m going to have to see if I can get Blunt Talk online; Patrick Stewart doing comedy is something I need to see.
I like The Flash and Agents of SHIELD and have mixed feelings about Arrow and Gotham, so I’m cautiously looking forward to Supergirl (the trailer looks really iffy) and Legends of Tomorrow (scheduled to debut mid-season, I believe).
I’m cautiously optimistic about the series adaptation of Limitless.
Supergirl. I’m really looking forward to this one. Hope they don’t fuck it up too bad.
Dream Girls - it’s American Horror Story with Jamie Leigh Curtis instead of Jessica Lange.
Or why not: American Horror Story - Hotel, now with Lady Gaga!
What’s the one with the tattooed girl?
In a few months I guess I’ll binge watch
-Ash vs the Evil Dead (Hail to the King!)
-The Bastard Executioner (Knights of Anarchy)
-Blindspot (Memento with Girl)
-Dr Ken (Señor Chang MD)
And whatever I hear is good from the rest.
I thought the title was Scream Queens.
The Muppet Show. YAAAAAAAAAYY!!!
Watched the first episode of Blunt Talk last night. It didn’t have the zip to carry a series into multiple seasons, though it was star-studded and enjoyable to watch. We’ll see if it can settle into itself and have a nice long run.
Blindspot.
I watched the leaked pilots for Blindspot, Lucifer, and Minority Report. My reviews, in order: Intriguing; Excellent; Excruciating.
So I’m really looking forward to Lucifer, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow, and will give Blindspot a chance. Jessica Jones will probably be good too, based on Daredevil’s brilliance, but I have no idea what it’s even about.
Lessie…
Blindspot, for mostly prurient reasons, I’m sure until the novelty wears off or the story gets stupid.
Adult Swim has a pilot called Bad Guys, about a Cobra/SPECTRE-esque supervillain organization. I might try and catch that, before it’s cancelled. ('Gotta make room for all the creepy live-action stoner comedies, of course.)
Aaaaand…huh. That’s it. Where do I sign up to get my Creaky Old Grump card, again?
Oh gawd you’re right - not sure what I was thinking. Yes, Scream Queens.
In order of anticipation:
Ash Vs. the Evil Dead
Legends of Tomorrow
The Man in High Castle
The Shanara Chronicles
All have a chance to be either great or terrible.
In Lucifer why does the devil have a British accent?
Well, they had to keep something from the comics.
Seriously, Gaiman and Carey’s character adapted as a generic procedural where the devil teams up with a woman who apparently works as a LAPD detective between modelling gigs. Sometimes real life is a parody.
