MisterOJ Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 It's reminding me of V (remember? The show with Inara as an evil sexy reptile alien?)Whoa. Totally didn't realize that was Inara until you just pointed that out. Musta been the short hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ZombieWife~ Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Things I have read about this show (on this thread):Perfectly adorableBatshit crazyThese two phrases pretty much sum it up for me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sci-2 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Whoa. Totally didn't realize that was Inara until you just pointed that out. Musta been the short hair.Out of curiosity, do people realize V was a remake?Also, Ep 2 promo yo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterOJ Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Out of curiosity, do people realize V was a remake?I did, since I remember both the original mini-series and the subsequent series from my youth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datepalm Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 yeah, but I haven't seen the original, so I have no idea what the level of total crazy there was.Promo looks good -Yay Abigail's sister and more female characters and maybe an interesting sibling relationship.

Ser Rodrigo Belmonte Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Speaking of Inara. .how's homeland been doing? ?I haven't seen since that episode when abu nazeer shaved himself to blend in I guess? ? Somewhere in S2 I think. Didn't get time to really see more since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Homeland fell off a steep cliff about halfway through season 2. Can't say I am excited about season 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horus Ex Machina Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I just realized that this show is starting tomorrow night on Fox.Anyone else checking it out?I could use a good new show, but I've no idea whether this will be a hit or a bust.TrailerIt looks like it's following in the footsteps of the success that NBC and ABC have had with Grimm and Once Upon A Time. I'm happy to see this trend continue on the major networks and it shows that society still has a taste for imaginative shows. I imagine that the Headless Horseman storyline will only be good for a season, so I wonder what other American folktales they can drudge up for subsequent seasons. Will definitely be watching and hope that it's as successful as the other two shows. I like this trend of fantasy-meets-police procedurals. And John Cho is in this too!

Warg Arry Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/sleepy-hollow-john-noble-joins-633343YesI liked the pilot. But this news has brought a new level of investment. I must see how he plays this role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kairparavel Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 And then I found out Jonanthan Rhys Meyers will be playing Dracula on NBC in October. And now I just facepalm. (although, the trailer looks like maybe it'll be ok? and it certainly didn't make say Ridiculous! out loud the way Sleepy Hollow ads did) I think it's the American accent in Victorian London that grates me so.Oh network television.

Myrddin Posted September 21, 2013 Author Share Posted September 21, 2013 Damn, that demon at the mirror freaked me the fuck out!Yeah, that was a good shot.The pilot was fun and I'll definitely be tuning in on Monday night.I liked that it's a twisty mystery/conspiracy show but doesn't take itself too seriously. Like the horseback rider crossing sign. And the accidental backswing that sliced off the top part of said sign.I got a laugh out of Clauncy Brown's character name. Corbin. Kurgan. Kinda close. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChampion Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Are there any American legends featuring an Abigail Mills that the female lead would be a reincarnation of? I checked wikipedia for an Abigail Mills in the Salem witch trials; there were two Abigails, but no Mills.Presumably in future seasons we will get some legends come to life of characters that represent War, Famine, and Pestilence.So there is a 7 year countdown to the apocalypse in 2020. I guess that's one way for the producers to encourage to network to keep the series for a full 7 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Procrastimancer Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I expected this to be bad, but ended up really enjoying it. I'm looking forward to watching more and am hoping for the best.The show looks to be doing well so far, so maybe that will give it some protection from cancellation. If it survives, Fox can always just cancel Almost Human. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageGuy Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Why make Ichabod Crane British? Not a complaint, I'm just curious about the writers' reasoning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
