I got the first episode of this quirky show, and I think I like it. Kind of procedural cop show meets Supernatural. Of course, David Greenwalt (Buffy, Angel, Eureeka) is an executive producer, so I have high hopes. What do you guys think?

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

I've not been that impressed so far, but I'll stick with it for a few more episodes to see if it improves. My major peeve about it is the lead actor is non-charismatic. His unwitting sidekick, the werewolf, is the best part of the show.

Yeah I kinda like it but like so many of this seasons new shows it is very middle of the road. There's nothing especially wrong with it but there's also nothing that hooks you in so you really look forward to the next episode. I had high hopes for this (and Once Upon A Time) as I like things that put twists on familiar tales but we'll have to see how it goes. I'm certainly not giving up on either yet and will probably see out the season (if they get there). Some shows need time to find there place and hopefully this will be one of them.

I have to completely agree about the lead actor being uncharismatic but his new werewolf friend is great and adds a light hearted touch to the show.

I'm enjoying it but think police procedure is completely out the window, and am shocked his partner isn't tipped off yet that something is going on. Kinda sucky detectives. Also, where was all the paperwork and psych tests for both partners since both shot & killed while on duty????

Werwolf sidekick is the best part of the show for sure!

JMHO, its a weak rip-off of "Supernatural" and its no where as good as SPN. I do like "Once Upon a Time" much better, I was glad to see Robert Carlyle in the show, hes a good actor.

I agree the lead is nothing to write home about,...'wolfy' is good though.

Do not bother dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!
