Quick comment. Elementary=House as police procedural.

Hadn't thought of it like that. It does look interesting though.

Considering House=Sherlock Holmes as a modern day medical drama that makes sense.

Well.. I was willing to give Elementary a try... till i saw that trailer. Johnny Lee Miller is doing a truly awful imitation of Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock. Just... BAD!

However.. Zero Hour has my attention now.. anything with conspiracies, the Devil and Nazis I'll try- just was never a fan of Anthony Edwards.. we'll see.

Also.. is CW going for a new world record of Epic fail? I mean seriously.. Arrow is just painful.. even with that non-trailer. And how do you make a bad remake of a mediocre sappy show even worse? Get She who Should Not Be Named to star in it.. Also.. maybe it's just me.. but should the character of Vincent be a bit ... larger? I mean even in silhouette he's almost as skinny and tiny as she was- not a good impression for a "man-beast" character.

Tonight when I was watching the season finale of Supernatural they had a commercial for both Arrow and Beaty and the Beast, neither one really caught my attention and it looks like the beast in B and the B is not actually gonna be deformed or anything looks more like he is a shapeshifter and in his human form he has what looks like a scar going down his pretty good looking cheek.

Cancel the kitchen scraps for widows and lepers, no more merciful beheadings and call off christmas!

I'm in for Elementary, Zero Hour, and Revolution. I refuse to watch anything on SiFee anymore. That channel is dead to me.

Considering Conan-Doyle was a Doctor and based Holmes on his mentor, this probably qualifies as full circle.

I really should do something about this signature.

Defiance sounds very interesting, actually. I would like to see how that possibly could work.

Revolution? Heck yeah. I'm all for a non-electric world at this point. It'd teach us how arrogant we is.
