oh, dear, that's not good. Well, I always give new shows three eps. Two if it's really awful.

Well, I try, but, like with people, sometimes you just know right away. I'm not even sure I made it through the second episode of Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I'm like that too, and this show would normally have gotten a second shot from me. But I'm actually trying to watch less tv this summer with a thesis to pump out, so I'm being far less generous.

I think the only reason I am giving it more than one shot is because it's summer, and I'm bored. Most of the summer shows don't start until July, so I'll give this one a longer chance.

Wow. Haven't watched it yet - it's waiting on my tivo. Sounds like it's bad.
Well, my Sunday nights are pretty darn crowded so I guess I won't miss it.

It would have hurt less if they wouldn't have tried to shoehorn a slutty/unsympathetic/oblivious Mom and a wildchild/annoying/bitchy younger sister into the mix. I didn't need to know all about her family, too. (Why couldn't Mom go pick up Sis at the train station?)

why are women characters in non-traditional jobs always surrounded by shitty other women? Or dead moms, like Kay?

The bad mother and the loser sibling scenario seemed too much like copying "Burn Notice" to me.

I didn't make it through the show - and I love crime shows.
I'm giving this show a serious pass.

I had decided to pass on In Plain SIght because I didn't like the ads (and I figured if it was really great I would hear and USA would show ten million reruns so I'd be able to un-miss it pretty easily if necessary) and y'all have filled me with sweet sweet validation. Ahhhh. Feels good.
