Hmmm. Looks like the same old same old.

Showed a preview of Pan Am at the movie theater. It looks really good.

Wow! The promo for Revenge actually looked pretty good. "This is not a story about forgiveness."

 

[satjay]

I have seen quite a bit of promotion for Pan Am

I predict that those angels will get the ax first. Sounds like the other remakes...

I agree Sean. I don't think that the public wants to go back to 1963 to see a bunch of stewardesses with Flip hairstyles.

I'll give some a shot, including Charlie's Angels. Drew Barrymore is the executive producer, so it might not be too bad. I too have absolutely no interest in PanAm. I'm kind of looking forward to Once Upon a Time. I won't continue Take the Money and run.

I'll give Pan Am & Charlies Angels a shot...

 

[yaz96]

We'll try - Revenge, Suburgatory, Once Upon a Time, and Pan Am.

Same here it's a fall tradition to load up the dvr with recordings and then cut the show or give it the privilege of series recording

Well, I don't think this show is going to have enough "revenge" in it to hold my interest. It's as though ABC tossed in a fair amount of daytime drama (set in an uppity soap-like community no less) to make up for cancelling two-thirds of it's Soap lineup. Still, there were some things I liked about the show...just not sure it's enough to keep my watching more than a few episodes. I'm interested in hearing what everyone thought.

I watched Revenge and liked it but it is too early to tell whether this show will do well or become a dud. I remember watching Emily in Everwood (a show that was on WB). I heard bad reviews about Charlie's Angels already.

 

[riffjim4069]

Revenge drew 10.15 million viewers for its season premiere. Not a bad number for ABC in the 10pm timeslot going opposite CSI. Of course, will 7-8 million people tune-in weekend. We shall see...

 

[Stargazer]

They did promote Revenge well too.

 

[Sean Mota]

Revenge is too soapy for me. I can't deal with the music in what it seems like every second. This is another one that is just too predictable. Basically the flashback have already said what the general story is and will be. I am not watching the rest of the series for details. if may find an audience with soapy audience. I am not one of them. See ya!

I decided I have to little time to get into most of the new shows this year,especially this one. So I deleted many of the timers I had set for them and didn't even watch the shows. I work 1:00pm to 9:00pm Mon- Friday so it really limits my nights.

I bailed on Charlie's Angels after the second episode(actually in the middle of it when Rachael Taylor's character was being recruited into a sham marriage with a foreigner seeking a green card) & canceled my series recording of them.

Wonder what the Tim Allen show will be like. Going to set the DVR, let's se if he has it a second time for TV

He will play the same role he played on his last show, except he will have 3 daughters instead of 3 sons. The only question is who will play the wife, who puts up with him and who will play the neighbor he gets advice from and then mangles it in translation to his wife. Welcome back to the 90s.
