A Person of Interest was better than I thought it would be . Jim Caviezel surprised me.Sure the whole thing was overdone , ultimately not sustainable and the inclusion of Michael Emerson presumably only to assure the fanboy turnout was distracting but I thought that the show for that hour was enjoyable and moved with a little grace.
Prime Suspect is not your parent's Prime Suspect but if you can get past that the show stands pretty well on it's own merits. Some decent writing and a good cast lead by the surprisingly convincing Maria Bello.I liked it .Good not great.
The New Girl I also liked and obviously Zooey Deschanel has major appeal but the show will need to get past the stereotypical supporting characters if it wants to last. Of course obvious and one dimensional has never hurt shows like Two and a Half Men so who knows.
Whitney , funny and as much as the structure of a sitcom allows,original. The only question is will America embrace a Whitney?
I recorded Unforgettable but so far only managed to get through the first ten odd minutes as I didn't really hold my interest up to that point.
Now for the dregs:Charlie's Angels and The Playboy Club.I had low expectations going in and they didn't even live up to those.Not exciting.Not dramatic.Not sexy.Not funny. Only bad.I will never watch either again and regret wasting my time doing so already.
