2015 TV Fall lineup
September 11, 2015 6:19 PM - Subscribe
The new US network TV premiere season is beginning, should we coordinate on what shows are being submitted to the TV-category listing? Call dibs on starting pilot threads?
I will check out Life in Pieces, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Neil Patrick Harris, and may try Angel from Hell, Dr. Ken, depending on reviews/how bad they look. I'm kinda intrigued by Supergirl, but I don't generally like superhero stories, so we'll see. Other people are welcome to dibs on all of these, but I'll throw something up a day or two after airing if no one else does, at least for the pilot.

Pickings look pretty slim this year, but I'm sure I'll watch Con Man, I might try Benders and Casual. The Art of More may be a possibility same with Limitless. I'll give Blindspot a second episode, ditto with Supergirl,and will definitely check out Jessica Jones, although I have qualms about the casting, and the way the material will be adapted.

I added "The Bastard Executioner"; unfortunately it has been panned so I doubt I'll put much effort into watching it. Still, might as well give it a go..

Okay, so Life in Pieces was okay, but like a whiter, straighter, more boring version of Modern Family. The one character I really wanted to know more about I figured out by the end of the episode is completely tertiary. So I can do a post, if people want to discuss it, but I'm obvs not super excited.
On the other hand, I can't do a post for Neil Patrick Harris's show, because I couldn't make it more than a few minutes into the absolute horribleness that it is composed of. Just couldn't. So instead of doing a post for it, I'll say if you're on the fence about watching it, here's a review from AV Club. I've seen them give a B- to a show that they thought had a glimmer of possibility that I thought was horrendous. They gave Best Time Ever a D.

Pretty much every new show I watched this week has a post up except for "Limitless", "The Player", and "Heroes Reborn", but I don't much care enough about any of them to get them added. (I mean, Heroes Reborn was bad enough for a gripe-watch/wtf thread, but it's not like I didn't know it was going to suck before I started watching.)

Yeah, I just added a Heroes Reborn post, but I don't know how much mental effort I want to devote to it.

Ha, and now there's a Heroes thread started in the time it took me to write that comment.
