    I swear to God when I'm reinstated to my rightful place as Supreme Mod here, you will be the second one after Skiz that I ban.

    The new season of True Detective is sort of good if you don't count Vince Vaughan.

    The two new Syfy shows Killjoys and Dark Matter are painfully bad.

    Penny Dreadful season 2 is probably the best thing on TV.

    I'm teetering on doing a Dreadful binge. I made it through Daredevil, so I obviously I am capable of pressing 'next' like a cocaine-addicted rat.

    To fully appreciate it you need to watch the whole thing to fully understand characters.Thus the second season is a lot better than the first.It's also a lot more focused.

    Or you could watch Strike Back because they blow shit up and there's tits.

    I planned to start over from the beginning.

    You do make a very compelling argument for Strike Blacks, though.

    It's funny that the two stars of Strike Back both have "high concept" shows premiering on NBC this fall.
    Obviously NBC has more faith in Blindspot because they've been promoting the fuck out of it.

    Lady Sif! Pretty, but I don't know if I would base a show around her...

    Don't know if I'd base a face around Lizzy Caplan's nose either but somehow she still makes it work.

    Anyway I put "high concept" for a reason because high concept if not outright shit usually means unsustainable.

    Basing a series around a singular premise is probably not the best of ideas.

    I wasn't familiar with the term "high concept", but it is a good one to know. Look at the success of Lost, and all of the wonderful network tricks we've seen since- like half-seasons, and 3 episodes followed by repeats for 6 weeks, then 3 more episodes (while taking a week off for a national holiday, of course...

    We were quite intrigued with The Hatch, and the number sequence, and Sawyer's dark past, then the other members on the other island...

    Don't underestimate viewers' ability to get suckered in to lame, pointless stories.
