I'm just glad Heroes is coming back next week so I'll have something else in that timeslot.

Experimental TV: Network Drama
This thread is an experiment to discern the Buffistas' interests in television discussion. It will close on June 1st, 2007, after which our community will assess our future direction. Discuss network aired drama here. [NAFDA]
Vice President Evilface is boring me to tears. Chloe's being given nothing to do. Jack's gone rogue again, and I don't care. It's all wrong.
What I want to know is did President Logan bleed to death and what's happening with his ex and Aaron.
I'm not sure how I feel about FNL moving to Fridays.
Perhaps this will make people remember when it's on!
So...seriously, WTF is up with 24 this season?... It's all wrong.
I'm glad to know that I need not regret giving up on it a few episodes back--except, of course, for the fact that because I wasn't watching FOX I forgot to start watching Drive.
I realized last week that I just didn't care what happened on 24. There's something about the evil vp and his minion that get on my last nerve, and the 25th amendment is getting very old. Also, I thought, "The big ending is going to be about Audrey? Who cares about Audrey?"
(Also this is that dark-haired kid.)
I think I may have seen him in the preview for Crossroads, because when I flipped to Jericho, I thought for a moment it was Crossroads (a TV movie coming up)
I'm just glad Heroes is coming back next week so I'll have something else in that timeslot.
Seriously. I've been watching random eps of L&O during this timeslot while Heroes was on break.
All I want to know is when Michael Shanks will be joining the cast. Then, god help me, I will have to watch.
Jericho: I just finished watching it. Scott was working (at home) last night and I kept waiting for him to be done, so we could watch it, together. He didn't finish up until 1:00am, so that didn't happen.
In the first scene, where the men return ahead of schedule, and Stanley and Russell can't tell Jake where Eric is, I love how Jake just pushes Russell up against the truck. He is so little, and Russell isn't, and yet Russell is so intimidated by him -- even though nobody knows how Jake spent all his years away from home. It just cracks me up.
When Jake went to Hawkins, it reminded me -- I don't think I ever saw the end of last week's episode.
I'm not usually psyched to see babies on a show, but I think being torn between Mary and his baby would have made Eric at least somewhat interesting. It's too bad they killed April off so soon. I was wondering if they'd form some post-apocalyptic polygamous marriage which would have driven Gail Green straight up a tree. Now Eric is just a mope with little purpose other than to act in a manner opposite of how Jake's acting at the moment. I'll see how he acquits himself in New Bern, but so far, I've never managed to care about the character.
I liked the little moment of politicized preaching from Hawkins to Jake -- that the fear of torture gets results and actual torture only works in the movies. I may have shouted out, "And on 24."
I've really come to like Mimi, which surprises me, because I hated her so much at the beginning of the season. I'm glad they've toned down the tension between her and Bonnie. It was over the top, before. Bonnie's boyfriend Sean has to go, though. Ugh. You can order stuff, on the internet. Duh. Stanley's, "My house. My rules. My vibe," cracked me up.
So is Constantino just angry and in panic mode or is he evil and greedy? How is Hawkins going to manage to free Jake and Eric? Is Sam Hawkins going to end up spilling to Jimmy, some other day?
I wonder if Heather is truly dead. I really hope not, but it seems she is and if so, I'm disappointed. Emily's a little too much of a bland pretty girl for my tastes.
The what now, SA?!?
Oh and there is some teeny tiny minor hope for Black Donnellys . . . apparently, if NBCs pilots suck and the streamed shows and downloads from itunes do well, they may bring it back. Minor hope.
sumi, where did you hear this? I really liked TBD, but I haven't watched anything on the web since they pulled it. It didn't seem like a good use of my time to get any more involved in a story that was never going to get told.
