I really wanted to write an essay about the caveman commercials and endemic racism. But I think I probably should have done it before the series comes out.

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]
I went to NBC's website and watched video previews of the new shows and I think that they look good. They need more about Journeyman I think but Life and The Bionic Woman both look good to me.

Ha! After my "Kevin McKidd and Reed Diamond in the same show! Too confusing!" comment earlier, I'm amused to notice that they play brothers.
Vonnie, thanks for linking that, for some reason when I went to the NBC site that isn't the preview that I found.
Word is that Jericho is gone.
kind of a bummer. it wasn't appointment tv(in fact, i let about 5 episodes pile up on the TiFaux before watching), but it was a pretty good show. mostly i'm annoyed with shows ending on cliffhangers like that one.
I don't subscribe to Minearverse so I don't know if it's been mentioned there, but Bryan Fuller's new show, Pushing Daisies (starring Lee Pace, who is my BOYFRIEND, so back off, all of you!) has been picked up for the fall schedule and the preview is availble at ABC.com: [link]
OMG, it's freakin' ADORABLE. I knew about Chi McBride, but I didn't know Anna Friel was going to be the love interest! I love Anna Friel! (She's a Brit and has been in loads of things, sporting an excellent American accent here.) This is now officially the series I'm most psyched about in the coming fall season.
Journeyman and Traveller. I foresee confusion.
Vonnie, I know! How exciting is it that Pace is in another Fuller project!
Word is that Jericho is gone.
I'm sad. The show really picked up after the overly long hiatus. As cliffhangers go, its end was akin to the end of Angel, but I still would have liked more. I thought they had a fine cast, and I wanted to see more of the story. That said, it serves them right for killing Major Dad.
Traveler is pretty much just a summer thing.
GG: Christiane Amanpour really did show up.
