cornerofmadnessother than watch all the tv premieres I recorded so expect all cuts to contain spoilers
Heroes - no need for a cut, already said what i thought, not horrible, not redeeming either
NCIS I wasn't overwhelmed by this but Tony was amusing. I'm glad Ziva's back. She's grown on me.
NCIS LA Seriously WTF was this? I understand the need to space it out from it's sister show but to go this far from the formula? It makes no sense. Nothing about this made any sense. NCIS are NAVAL detectives. They are NOT super spies. They are not MI-5 or CIA. Why in the hell are they in an abandoned building that had an improbably number of people milling about and where were they parking? It's a residential area. Sorry but NCIS is housed in governmental buildings on naval bases. They don't scout around looking for covert safe houses as a place of business.
And who are all these people? Why do we have profiler guy? At least encyclopedia guy is African American, I guess that's something...a stereotype. Hetty...what the hell is she? She's not Gibbs, she's like an office manager who's rather pointless who doesn't know G is Callum's actually name (in spite the fact as we see at the end, he fills out paperwork and one would assume she KNOWS her people's files inside and out). Okay G doesn't have a real name because he's an orphan, I could probably handle it but not her not knowing that. And until that moment I thought his partner was just being ghetto (yeah racial stereotyping on my part I guess).
This was a mess. I like Chris O'Donnell so i'll give it a few more tries but it doesn't look promising. And yes![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sp23 i do know who that actress is now
Castle Ah our Jessica Fletcher for the 21st cen is still much sexier than Jessica ever was. I find the show fun and silly. Yes, i know it could never really happen but i'm willing to go with the premise and NOT expect reality. I still love Castle's female family members.
The Forgotten I hated Christian Slater's last tv attempt. I liked this one better. It's a riff off the real VIdoqc society where retired law enforcement work cold cases. At least Slater's character is/was a real detective. It's not too much more unbelieveable than a family hiring private detectives to take up the slack when overworked detectives have to move on
Numb3rs - i think this one has gotten tired.
