I like sci-fi, but I also think some of it is terrible. With tv shows it's all about the characters for me rather than the genre.
I think I'll give it a try if the story is good and makes up for the acting.
I mean, I still watch Supernatural but cringe in every single episode because of Sam's mono-expression.
Because you watch girl shows, I wouldn't recommend Continuum.
Even though you watch girl shows, I still wouldn't recommend Continuum.
It just seemed shite. I rarely try to judge a show off of 1 episode, but for the ones that I do, they must have had that much suck built in.

So I've watched the first ten or eleven of Person of Interest.
I'm really enjoying it but teh missus isn't. Which isn't a surprise because Reese hasn't yet got together with Carter and she'll just refuse to get invested in something unless there's a tangible love interest.
I find the whole concept about the machine intriguing and love the gradual uncovering of plot developments. The pace isn't frenetic, and I'm quite glad about that because too many dramas try to do too much too soon. The story arcs are just kicking in, which is great because as good as the stand-alone episodes are; that format would have got stale pretty quickly. The episode where we discovered who the new crime boss is was absolutely fantastic. Even though I said to teh missus that I thought it was the history teacher, it was written so well that it was only a guess.
The only real negative point I have is the intonation which both main protagonists seem to favour. I guess that Michael Emerson did the same thing as Ben in Lost, so it's annoying that he's taking the same distant and aloof approach to diction in this series, too. What's worse, though, is that for some reason I don't quite understand, Caviezel seems to be emulating him.
It's one of those things that once you've noticed, you can't stop noticing.
