I was kinda bored by it... post #1  quote:



I tried my best, but only got through the first half hour of the premier. Can't put my finger on it, but it felt like molasses.

I finally gave up. I will wait till the season gets going and see if it does well or not, then might give it another chance later.

I wanted to like it. I tried to like it. It may be just me. But I watched an old episode of Star Trek before and I liked it just fine, so I wasn't in no weird mood...



I kept drifting off, even during "exciting" scenes. The music was drab, the film was drab, I just zoned out and wanted it to pickup. I'm curious what others think, if I'm being too hard on it or what?

That's disappointing, because it sounded so cool. I won't be bothered watching it then.

And, hey, what's wrong with molasses?

Well, wait and see what others say. They might like it, you just never know with art.

Didn't watch it, but I did DVR it. Who knows when I can get to it. I have last week's Survivor, Amazing Race, Studio 60 and this to check out. Not to mention this interesting documentary on the Templars and a hour of Three's Company.

I am a TV slut.

Okay... last night, they did a replay of the series opener... and, I watched it.

After sitting through the entire show, I have to say that I actually like it. No, it's not the BEST show around, but I was more entertained last night, then I was on Monday. So, I will give it another go next week.

The previews for next week showed the Japanese guy, in NY, looking at a comic book. Sounds like he's found a comic that is of his "adventures" to learning about bending time.

I finally watched it last night. Overall I liked it. The dialogue was kind of cheeseball at times. But I found it really interesting.

I didn't expect too much, it's more of an ensemble cast that is connected but those connections are going to be discovered and explored in the weeks to come. Makes for better drama, I suppose.

The unbreakable cheerleader is a little hottie.

Let me guess, the cheerleaders made a human pyramid and she fell right on her head, and she was okay, and that's how she found out she had her powers... am I right?

No, they don't show that. But, she's with some guy, from school, and he's video taping her, as she falls, like 5 stories up, and pops all her bones back in place. Her cuts just close up, etc...

When she put her hand into the garbage disposal, and pulled it out, her hand was a bloody, mangled, mess. It just healed right up.

They have your basic comic book style powers. Tissue regeneration, flight, teleportation, ESP, and there is a mysterious bad guy in their midst.

It's kind of like an international X-Men and their Professor-X is a powerless Indian dude that drives a cab.
