televison: i just can't.

So I remember why I gave up on first run TV.

I watched the Pilot for Ringer this afternoon. It took me three hours to get through. Granted, I was doing homework at the time and finished all of it, but still. Three hours. It just never grabbed my brain and made me care. I love Sarah Michelle Gellar, and she is phenomenal in the show--kudos to her ( Read more... )

I watched the pilot episode of Ringer last week, and I didn't like it at all. It didn't make me care two whits about the characters and I couldn't connect to any of them. All in all I felt it was pretty sub-par.

Amen! I felt like I had to defend the fact that I didn't like it because there are so many fierce SMG diehards, but I just couldn't connect with it at all. I mostly was watching with that eyebrow-raised "you cannot be serious" look on my face.

Yeah, me too. XD It's too bad.
