The acting is really good! Surprisingly so. The only part of it that was WAY overdone was the mother, but if they limited her screentime, this would have been a perfectly serviceable series.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Did you like it better than the L&O:Hogwarts pilot?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
LOL.
I am watching that now. I am about 10 minutes in and it is a STRUGGLE. I had to stop and watch Colbert.

OMG. 17th precinct is terrible. I don't think I will finish it.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Andi and I gave up on 17th Precinct after a bit.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
There's a nice twist at the very very end of 17th Precinct, but other than that it was feh.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I've caught up on Misfits on Hulu (I think there will be about 3 more episodes to see but I have to wait for them), and their algorithm is recommending I watch Alphas. Some people here liked it, yeah?
