I definitely hope it makes it. But Whedon fans tend to talk big and not deliver. Serenity was supposed to be huge, reading the internet, but the support failed to materialize. Hopefully the extra Avengers lure will draw people in. That, of course, could backfire though when Coulson is the only character from the MCU to show up. I'm really just worried ABC will flub the whole thing.

As far as Supernatural, I thought series 6 was completely awful. It got a bit better in 7 and the 8th one was really well done, more like the first five series when Kripke was still hands on. It ended interestingly enough to bring me back for 9. We'll see how this one pans out.

I've watched some of six, and whatever season had the Leviathans, but nothing since. I just completely lost interest. Especially once Bobby died. He was one of the reasons I watched the damned show.

Supernatural hasn't been good since the third season. Season four was passable. All the Angels, Gods and Demons stuff sounds excellent on paper but with Supernatural's non existent budget, it was just pathetic. Then because they'd blown up the scale so huge, they couldn't go anywhere else but up, to the point now where the show is so pathetic, I think I pity it a little.

Just sitting here, eating a burrito, watching Fresh Prince.

The Leviathans were 7. But: Bobby is back this season. No one has explained exactly how yet though. It's especially odd after his appearance last season.

It can be pretty awful sometimes but I've stuck with it this far because when it does get things right the episodes are amazing. Unfortunately those have been few and far between for a while. Still, it makes for a nice distraction.

:eyebrow Just Boom there he is?

Didn't Bobby go to Heaven in Season 8? I cared so little for the season I barely remember it. Or do you mean he's back for season nine?

My greatest irritation with the series is how it completely disregards its own rules and mythology. With the way some episodes play out, I'm pretty sure the casual audience pays more attention to what is going on than the actual writers do.

I'm sure there will be an in series reason with an explanation that is drawn out for a while. I'm not sure if he's back in 9x01 or comes in later. They've just said that the character is returning.

He did in S8 but he's back as a regular character according the series staff in S9. The reasoning hasn't been given yet. I'm guessing it was more behind-the-scenes driven than story driven though.

So I just finished the Sleepy Hollow Pilot.

Pilots in their very nature exist to convince networks to pick up the series. And so although not always the case, it's difficult to judge things like the acting or the action or whatever on the pilot alone, as they may not bother to fire on all cylinders or throw as much money at their episodes, when they've confirmed they have x episodes to play with.

As such, I took the pilot's impressive action sequences and visuals with a grain of salt, as to not end up as disappointed with the show as I was with shows like Arrow. It's hard as well, because everything about this pilot makes me excited, establishing a world and a series of narrative hooks which doesn't promise, but at least hints, that what is to come is going to be exciting and epic. Wrapped in stylish visuals, stunningly directed action and balanced with a wicked sense of humour. I just have to keep reminding myself that Arrow promised the same, and look how that turned out, just gotta keep myself grounded, can't let the pilot suck me in....

Tom Mison is no Johnny Depp, for sure, but his version of Ichabod Crane is still fun enough, as he is depicted as a sort of urban fantasy Captain America, minus the shield (they even make this reference themselves at the end) and Mison adds a lot of charisma to some excellently crafted dialogue.

Sadly, the woman alongside him, Abbie Mills as played by Nicole Beharie is far less interesting. She may be a black, female police officer, which is certainly fascinating to Crane but her performance and her characterisation leaves a lot to be desired. Especially when sharing a scene with Crane, who steals every scene he is in, through copious amounts of scenery chewing and apparently loving every second he's in character. I guess she is there to balance, and ground Crane, but she just sucks the fun out of every scene, as she has to constantly amass a wall of sass at everything, like being alive is a nuisance for her to click her fingers at.

Perhaps the only disappointment is that Clancy Brown dies about five minutes after he is introduced, barely doing anything at all. Why would they hire such a great actor for such a tiny part, in the pilot? At least his death brings John Cho into the show, so you sorta balance it out.

Are we allowed to post links on this site? Because if so, here are my thoughts on the first episode of season three of Teen Wolf. If not, just remove this line from my post.

Anyway, episode two, Chaos Rising. Even after taking a break from this show for a while, I'm immediately reminded why I love this show so much. The characters, the dialogue, the chemistry. The show switches between water cooler moments and laugh out loud quotable moments almost effortlessly.

What I also love about the show, is the mythology, namely that they picked one and stuck with it. The idea of only being about werewolves probably seems boring, when all the other shows like Buffy, Supernatural, Grimm etc all focused on well...everything. But because they have only picked just one here, it allows them to go into way more depth and do loads of crazy things. From our werewolves we've birthed Alpha packs, Lizardmen and twins who can combine into the Hulk with a whole host of crazy ass powers thrown in between.

There are some confusing things though, like the whole scattered moonlight thing. Werewolves can shift at will in this show, and as far as I can gather as it's never really been made clear, all the moon does is make them more animal like so they lose control and become more dangerous for it. So how starving them of moonlight makes any difference to them is lost on me.

It's just a shame that behind the scenes drama has caused problems for the show. I mean good on the show for using these behind the scenes problems for their plot and stuff, but Erica and Boyd were so pointless overall it doesn't seem worth centring so much of the last season on them.

My other disappointment is that even though toku has tiny budgets, they make such great fight scenes. So the action here, although not bad, is much less flashy, much rougher and much more localised. And so it's always somewhat disappointing, to see two monsters clash so clunkily and for their bouts to be over so briefly. I wish they'd utilise some toku wirework, to really show off the raw power of these beasts like the plot claims they have.

Remember the smoking hot babe from RPM? Tenaya? Yeah, she's in this. And a werewolf.
