You were being nice. I think all of agreed that at least some of us found every show on that list sucktastic. We just might vary which ones we could stomach.
exactly. I didn't want to offend by calling all of them awful, because MMV.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It caught my eye because you went in and excluded a couple, that's all. I thought you were saying there was some objective criteria out there that separated Dresden Files and Blood Ties from the rest--but I see there's not.

Oh, that episode has one of my favorite lines. I even used it as a tag once.
The line about "can your science explain that?" Brilliant.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's the one. I laughed so hard I had to rewind because I missed the next section of dialogue.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I only watched the first episode of Moonlight, which was so campy and awful, it was sort of like art. I mean, they used Evanescence's "My Immortal" in the big flash-back I Set My Vampire Wife On Fire scene, for crying out loud! I remember watchin' and postin' the pilot at a friend's LJ and it was a complete riot. But I figured I couldn't really continue watching the series without being massively drunk every Friday night (well, I guess I could have gone that route.) Maybe it improved later?
New Amsterdam, on the other hand, was WRETCHED. Oh, my God, was it ever.

I thought Moonlight was worse than New Amsterdam.

Art Crawl!!!
No way! New Amsterdam started off badly and got worse. That first episode of Moonlight was the worst one - it improved from there.
And Journeyman and Dresden Files should have had a full order at least.

I agree with sj. I could at least get through an entire episode of New Amsterdam. Moonlight, I turned off in disgust halfway through.

Moonlight had Jason Dohring and Alex O'Loughlin. that's what kept me watching.

I meant to get around to catching either -- just as well, I suppose.
