television, stop being addicting
May. 18th, 2011 08:19 pmUgh, upfronts. I was going to skate by and not watch anything new, and I'll be keeping an eye on Ringer and The Secret Circle, but some of the other stuff actually looks good! Just from NBC's lineup:
Awake
coming to NBC
This looks really interesting. And it cheats by using one of my favorite songs. But still. I think I will definitely watch that pilot.
Bent
starring Amanda Peet
coming to NBC
Look, I have no frame of reference if this TV show looks good or not. But I totally love me some Amanda Peet! I'm doomed! [This means I'll watch the pilot in the very least.]
I'm not totally sure how I feel about Grimm. The rest of them? Meh.

Dude, I so wanted to like Grimm. I love David Greenwalt, but damn, that one looked awful.

Yeah I was kind of meh oh the whole Grimm thing. I also don't really like the lead guy (although if the show was good enough, I'd obviously look past it.)
I am actually kind of surprised at how gritty some of these looked. Although promos can be deceiving. It feels like the networks are taking a page from fx and amc. It looks like there's a lot of dark stuff.
One more edit: I totally forgot where that kid was from! Hahaha.
