OK, I pretty much never post on LJ any more (I've moved to tumblr and goodreads, same user name) but I felt like making my 'here is what I will be trying in the 2013-14 TV season' post here for some reason
( Read more... )
I've had a thing for Rhys Meyers since Bend it like Beckham and it seems it hasn't gone anywhere. He can bite me any day!
Arrow, I think Stephen and Katie have zero chemistry and she's so meh on the show. She was awesome as Ruby in supernatural. I think chemistry wise Ollie and Felicity (the tech girl) have great chemistry but the official couple of course is Laurel and Ollie.
The white queen looks awesome and it has Max Irons. I never liked OUAT, especially the terrible special effects bothered me too much and I think the script is such a weak link. Sleepy Hollow looks exciting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0MBZxSDmIc
I wasn't aware this was being made so thank you so much for bringing it to my attention. It seems it'll be kind of close to the 1992 movie. Can't wait!
Kind of sad you don't post on Lj anymore but at least, I'll get to follow you on Goodreads :)
Arrow lost me midway through the teens, but I'm still enjoying BatB a lot. (Though my TV brain is primarily occupied by Revolution, Defiance, Continuum, Elementary and Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries right now.)
I'm pretty much anti-interested in Dracula, but look forward to Star Crossed and Sleepy Hollow a lot. And maybe the Wonderland series. I donBlack Sails and Reign will, I think, largely depend on my mood when they start. i'd say I'm really looking forward to The White Queen, but I side-eye the source a lot.
It is. Cop from the future accidentally tags along with terrorists who travel back in time to destroy the companies in charge before they take over.
It's somewhat hit-and-miss in terms of quality but I enjoy it and it has a lot of actors I like (mostly Rachel Nichols and Lexa Doig). The terrorists are pretty much a case of "ideologically probably in the right, but wrong in methods and actions" (though I could just be projecting what seems to be the main character, Kiera's, POV onto myself) which is getting explored a bit more in the second season, and they seem to be leading up to some interesting explorations of time travel. Kiera's sidekick in the president is actually one of the most powerful men in the world in her time, and possibly sent all of them back on purpose, though we don't know why yet (I like his future self, or at least am interested in what he's up to, but his teen self annoys me), and we eventually learn there are other time travelers that came through at different times.
Wait wait wait.... so there will be a spin-off for OUAT called Once Upon a Time in Wonderland?? Does that mean we will see the Mad Hatter again?? If so.. I'm totally going to tune in. :D
sorry that this is two weeks later but I had to comment on the ridiculousness of the Reign details. So ridiculous, haha. I'll probably tune in just to see Anne of Green Gables as Catherine de Medici.
Black Sails looks good . . . hope it doesn't suck despite the presence of Michael Bay.

Also I'm so excited for Joss Whedon's Shield.

Ooooh, Sleepy Hollow looks good and I cannot believe I forgot Shield (or CW's The 100 or Star-Crossed).
