i liked it too, tho so many beats were very very gilmore girls. if you have a fondness for that show (i do) i think you'll like this one. if not tho, stay away

I never watched Gilmore Girls more than a part of an episode here and there, but I just caught an encore airing of the Bunheads premiere and I'm gonna set my dvr for the season. Definitely love it initially.

dead or coma?

i dunno, but bummed about that twist
― Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Sunday, 17 June 2012 04:29 (1 year ago) Permalink
i'd prefer coma. death is too final. coma can keep him out as long as writers want and have option of bringing him back. also better reason to keep protag in town besides tenuous friendship with mother-in-law

I dunno. In cases where a will hasn't been drawn up, wouldn't she just inherit everything that's in her husband's name? If so, that's a pretty concrete reason to hang around for a while.

It starts effectively enough, with an homage to “Network” ’s galvanizing “I’m mad as hell” rant
Studio 60 started the exact same way. That doesn't bode well.

yeah of all Sorkin's insane compulsions that hurt his work, the unapologetic recycling of stories and themes and episode titles and word-for-word dialogue from one show to the next is the weirdest

some dude have you been watching 'suits'? i feel like youre the only other person that liked that show but im p amped thats back, somehow

hbo has been pushing that show for so long now that I've lost interest in it. also it seems like an extended series basically built around network which is kind of meh to me.

oh man i've been watching reruns of s1 of Suits AND watched the s2 premiere XD

i like it, i think it's probably the best recent usa show (though i caught up on 'white collar' earlier this year and it seemed pretty much on a par once i could see the arc). the new plot-rejigger was good and the women are all as sick as ever. looks like it's going to be a good role for gale-from-breaking-bad.

Ratings flop pilot, though.. wrong home for it on ABC Family perhaps.

is it possible to have bad ratings on ABC Family? are they like 'oh no, you're not raking in the cash like Switched At Birth'?
― here's my lumber, so jack me maybe (some dude), Tuesday, 19 June 2012 10:50 (11 months ago) Permalink
I'll comfortably chalk up any Bunheads ratings troubles to the show's title. That's a helluva hurdle for the uninitiated to jump. I'm loving it so far, myself, though. Stokes those understimulated GG pleasure centers.

people are probably afraid the show stars the Karmin lady

it's a very good show, if it gets canned that will be huge travesty. maybe someone else would pick it up though.

lol i'm pretty sure if you get canceled by ABC Family the only step down left is public access
― some dude, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 02:14 (11 months ago) Permalink
why do ppl think it'll get cancelled? it's charming, done by gilmore girl person... are the ratings that terrible?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 02:16 (11 months ago) Permalink
ratings not good, but I don't know enough about the ABC Family model so I can't really interpret what it means.
Awkward is back on MTV this week.

man, Suits..it's kinda just another one of those diverting, kinda fun USA shows, but when i hear a line like"well, that asshole's coming back, and it's not because he wants to be #2!" CUE COMMERCIAL BREAKi have to laugh at how inherently dumb AND entertaining it is

love that show
new season of Episodes is super funny

― ostrich tuning (get bent), Thursday, 12 July 2012 03:58 (11 months ago) Permalink
I like Suits because the two mains look so much like bizarro Barney & Marshall from HIMYM, heh. Also - filmed in Toronto! Haven't seen S2 yet though.

Since I am way, way behind on Breaking Bad (didn't even make it through the first season), tonight's premiere is something that I'll probably see in about six years or whenever I get around to it.
Instead I watched Political Animals on USA and it was...a shaky start to a show that may get better? Bud Hammond aka Bill Clinton is almost a fucking cartoon, but just about everything else seems alright.

xxp I have watched some of Dance Moms, was horrified and backed away quickly
― Nhex, Monday, 16 July 2012 03:55 (11 months ago) Permalink
Political Animals looks so worthless from the ads that i actually felt relieved for everyone involved when i learned that it was just a one-off miniseries and not aiming to be a long term thing.
― some dude, Monday, 16 July 2012 03:57 (11 months ago) Permalink
So far, it's not as wonky as The West Wing but it's also about as deep as a rain puddle. If it maintains the typical fluff of a summer USA show, then no harm done.
