t,
no. I am not going to promise I won't watch because I likely will get bored, but after seeing the storyline and seems pretty different from S2 of the original, I think I'm out.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

I didn't mind the ending of Season 1 so much, but pretty much all of Season 2 was boring and/or ridiculous to me. I'm hoping that having an entirely new case will help, although I am not hoping very hard. I suspect I am just not the right audience for this show.
I don't know anything about the original (except that it was wildly popular in England), so that's not a concern for me.

le nubian, I am reserving the right to laugh at you a tiny bit if you do show up to complain about The Killing later in the season. Because giving up shows is not my strong suit, so it's a weakness I find amusing.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
it will not hurt my feelings in any way if you laugh. laugh hard, laugh long.
I will absolutely deserve it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
You know, as soon as Danny Strong showed up on Mad Men last night, I was hoping he would punch Roger in the nuts. This show does not disappoint.

That is the only review/recap of this episode I ever need to see, Jess.

I don't watch Mad Men, but have a sudden urge to find recaps...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Graceland is like other USA shows, but better, says June Thomas. I guess I'm in, then!

One line from that review,
But USA’s greatest gift is for casting.
really struck me. It's so true - even when the dialogue is crap or the stories are outlandish, I stick around for how much I like the people. On the shows that I've given up (Suits) or never watched (that U.S. Marshalls thing that I'm blanking on the name of), I still have a lot of fondness for the characters. Quite a gift, really.
