i was in desperate need of a break...

I just watched the Vanished pilot. Yeah, so after the fact, I know, but whatever.


I suspect I won't be a fan. Ever. It's not that it sucks, really, compared to a lot of the shows I watch, but I think it will be one of those random shows that I watch whenever I remember and can't think of anything better to do. Like Desperate Housewives and Prison Break.

Why?

I don't care about any of the characters. Sure, there are a few I dislike, but that's not really any kind of incentive to watch.

The plot annoys me. I hate those shows you have to watch at least ten episodes of before it makes any sense. Veronica Mars has separate story lines for each episode, so waiting eight months to find out who killed Lilly or who put the bomb on the bus isn't all there is to it, but this show... All it's about is the Senator's wife and all her dirty little secrets, and that annoying, oh so perfect FBI agent, who is so much like a younger, supposedly handsome Jack Malone that it makes me sick. And he's not cute. He's just annoying. See, just like Jack Malone. Eek.

The reason January always seems like it lasts forever is that there are no good shows.

Good thing I have exams to keep me busy. Umm... Uhhh...

vanished, tv rant
