A Poll!

Aug 31, 2009 12:15

io9 has posted a (rather U.S.-centric) list: "Your Complete Guide to Fall Science Fiction TV."

Which leads me to a question: what, if any, science fiction/fantasy shows will you be returning to and/or trying out this Fall? (Note: Day One, Past Life, Caprica, Human Target, and the new seasons of Chuck, Lost, and Better off Ted will not air until ( Read more... )

poll, tv, interviews

Hmm... almost enough to make me interested in turning on the TV :P I remember when V first aired... caught a little of it. An intense and sometimes scary show (from what I remember). Hope they manage to recapture some of the orginial series excitement.

Eastwick... it sounds like they are trying to make it a soft-core porn TV show :P Though at least they have Rebecca Romjin (Mystique from X-men among others). Would take someone like her to try to fill in for Cher. As for the Devil... I'm afraid he is going to be sunk as its hard to match Jack Nicholson.

Most all the others... I really need to get the previous seasons and you know... actually watch some of them :P

Oh, and I just remembered... The Vampire Diaries is essentially holding open auditions for extras at DragonCon :P

Cool!

Of these, V has me most interested, especially because, like you, I remember the original (intense and scary indeed). I've heard really positive things about it, and of course it has two Firefly actors in it, as well. So I'll give that a shot.

On the whole, I find these days I'm much more likely to take up a show by sampling a season of the DVDs via Netflix than actually watching the TV while the season is airing. There are just a couple of exceptions, such as Doctor Who.

Doctor Who is the only one of those shows available to me, although I will be watching more Being Human too.

I've heard very good things about Being Human. (I love Doctor Who!)

thepirateship August 31 2009, 17:59:41 UTC

I only watch Doctor Who.

Yay for The Doctor!

Eureka! But it airs late for Canadians on Space. :)

So in love with Sanctuary! I can't friggin' wait! *bounces* omgomgomgomg

I forgot Eureka! *slaps forehead*

I really need to watch some Sanctuary. It's out on DVD, isn't it?

groovekittie September 3 2009, 22:20:19 UTC

Did you watch the original V? Do you remember the ad campaign?

eldritchhobbit September 3 2009, 13:50:10 UTC

Yes, I loved the original V! And oh my gosh, those original ads... I hadn't thought of that in years. I was young enough back then that now the hair stands up on the back of my neck, thinking about it.

I remember my dad being as excited about it as I was. :)
