Legends of Tomorrow

Arrow

Walking Dead

Fear the Walking Dead

The Strain ...

Stopped watching -

I thought it was okay, but everybody else seems to think it's great. It's only 8 episodes, so not a big waste of time even if you don't care for it.

Even those praising it are still acknowledging how derivative it is of a lot of 80s movies.

Haley is the only reason I'll check out Conviction, but most of my viewing this year will be on Hulu, except for Jane and Elementary, since Hulu won't be offering any CW or CBS shows.

Less formulaic than some.

Looks like Time Travel is "the" thing this season.
Along with Frequency and Timeless, there's also Time After Time and the comedy Making History.

I was thinking Frequency was a bit techno - sharing a bit with White Noise, and the Forest Whittaker bit in Phenomenon. And Nathan was in White Noise 2. In theory these might have commonality with The Ring, but the vibe was waaay different.

You're not saying much, but enough to get me interested.

Dammit.

So I'm giving it a chance now. Much of what you say is spot on. Now, my main problem is the ...well, I'll go w/ the Butterfly effect. On the one hand they openly state their intent to ' not knock over a salt shaker ' so as to not change anything down the time line , but then...COMPLETELY CHANGE HISTORY IN NOT SMALL WAYS !! Good grief! Are these folks true imbeciles ?

This asinine attitude.. " But I love her... I MUST do something, no matter what the cost ! " is really grating me , and I'm assuming it'll only get worse with more episodes.

At least Sam and Al tried to FIX things, when Sam leaped from time to time...


THIS is why I get so turned off w/ time travel shows. ( those which don't include FIXED points, or Time Lords, of course )


Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

I'm just a red pill guy in a room full of blue pill addicts.

The most recent Timeless should have created more of a difference than just an extra James Bond movie. They got Von Braun to the allies almost a year before the war was over rather than afterwards. It would make sense for there to be an infinite number of changes, but how would they know unless they reviewed all of the world's history from that point until the present? They can't do that of course, since the review would have to be done by either Lucy, Rufus, or Wyatt, and that would bring the story to a halt for an episode in between each mission.
