Pilot Season Snap Judgements

New tv is upon us, tv-watching people! Settle in, watch some trailers, and then come see how kegger and I feel about things!

Black-ish

ameliebee: I chuckled a few times, but I probably won’t watch it. I have high standards when it comes to sitcoms these days.

kegger: Nah.

 

Cristela

ameliebee: I couldn’t even make it through the whole trailer. Pass.

kegger: It looks kind of awful.  And I actually somehow managed to watch the entire trailer.

 

Forever

ameliebee: That clip gave me NOTHING about the premise of the show. However, IOAN GRUFFUD! HI! (The premise of the show reminds me of New Amsterdam. Does anyone remember that show? It starred pre-Jaime Lannister Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. That was my first Nikolaj Coster-Waldau experience, and you know what they say about your first…)

kegger: Looks… meh.  (Also, what the heck is New Amsterdam?)  This show looks like it’s going to be a procedural… while he figures out he’s immortal?  Whaaa?  The premiss just seems kind of week, to be honest.
