2013 Fall TV Thread: Previews, Evaluations, Ridicule and Mourning

that's another thing, they should have viking hats. see hagar the horrible

you dont deserve a viking show

Andy Daly's show Review debuting tonight I think

as is chicagoland...

Review is okay, don't know if it's the format or what but I don't feel encouraged to return to it week after week.

i am thinking abt watching Believe

until they clear up whether it's named after cher's 'believe' or lenny kravitz's 'believe' i'm staying the hell away

I thought they were already bringing back Heroes...

also I would like to say that Almost Human is one of my favorite shows on tv right now. Consistently good stories!

all i wanna do
is see you turn into
a giant woman

I only watched S1 of Raising Hope, and I liked it, but I have no idea what it turned into over the following three seasons. Still, I hate knowing it won't be around anymore. Television needs Martha Plimpton.

martha plimpton is regularly recurring on the good wife

Why do I have this feeling she's not nearly as fun on that show

Garrett Dillahunt also pretty amazing on Raising Hope too. But yeah, this show's been kind of out of gas for a while, lucky we got four seasons at all tbh

she is, sort of, except that her character's role is exasperating lawyer-trix antagonist, so you kind of have to find that fun despite identifying with alicia florrick, who is less amused

Is anyone else watching Enlisted? The ending of tonight's episode made me tear up.

yeah Enlisted has been growing on me

and yes that last scene had me a lil emotional as well, okay, murgatroid?

finally watched a few eps of Kroll Show ... Gigolo House and The Legend of Young Larry Bird won me over. DYING

how did kroll show get laura dern

I'm really liking Resurrection, even having watched Les Revenants earlier last year. It's a different story rather than a remake, and done pretty well for ABC imo.

resurrection has nothing to do with les revenants aside from its premise, the english adaptation is being done by paul abbott

kroll show finale was def influenced by Ryan Trecartin, philly video artiste

I really need to catch up on this show

i never liked this show but that's good promo

Has anyone watched that Turn show on AMC? I probably don't have the time to pick up anything new, but it seems mildly intriguing.

Watched the pilot, was bored

how could it be anything but boring with Jamie Bell? New Orphan Black coming so who cares?

I actually like Bell a lot but it was just really lame and predictable and sloooooow-moving

Yay for new OB and Louie in the next few weeks

did anyone watch the fargo pilot?

Yeah, I did. Didn't care much for it. Too heavy on the oh-golly mannerisms without the qualities that the Coens brought to the original that made it great.

in the last silicon valley episode, the encounter between peter and gavin was brilliant. loved the obvious pleasure gavin found in prolonging the discussion, the enjoyment he got from peter squirming more and more as it went on.

Anyone else curious about "Penny Dreadful"? Sounds like an Alan Moore mashup.

trophy wife cancelled :(

I had a dream last night that Community was canceled. Jim Rash and Gillian Jacobs were at my apartment waiting for the phone call, and hugs and tears followed.

Also, this doesn't sound good: http://uproxx.com/tv/2014/05/is-community-about-to-be-cancelled-uh-looks-like-it/

it'd be a shame but i kinda want to see harmon do something else, i was intrigued to see what he might do w/ a final season of community but i wasn't that stoked to see what he'd do w/ just another season of community, definitely felt like he might of run out of ideas or stories for these characters.

trophy wife cancelled :(

man i just want to preface this post by saying i'm disgusted by myself as well but for the past few months until just this past week i had this intern working for me in the lab that looked remarkably like malin akerman only more voluptuous and obv younger and at times it could be distracting

anyway trophy wife shoulda been on between the middle and modern family and shoulda been named something besides trophy wife

I can confirm I didn't watch it because I thought it was Cougartown, only renamed.

trophy wife was great - disappointing news :(

RIP Community http://tvline.com/2014/05/09/community-cancelled-nbc-season-6/

Good time to end tbh, it was reaching South Park levels of didacticism

community cancelled

xpost

i could sorta imagine it picking up a final 'season' (ie ~12 episodes) at netflix/comedy central/tbs though. still, if it was between this or hannibal being renewed i'm glad it was hannibal.

cosign. community hasn't been essential viewing since season 3

suburgatory cancelled, which i'm not nearly as sad about as i might've once been

suburgatory had a rough season - they seemed to have stalled narratively

stalled is putting kindly
