Chris Meloni is great. The rest, not so much. However, Meloni so good that it's probably worth checking out anyway. I'm a little bummed that this show is taking Magnolia Breeland away from Hart of Dixie as well.
Is this a midseason show? This looks fantastic! Although, from the trailer, I can see why they are recasting the mother. She certainly wasn't bad, but she didn't really jive well with Christopher Meloni
Well, Surviving Jack is streets ahead of any other FOX comedy promo, and I really liked Brooklyn 99's (except for the whole lead-actor-is-Andy-Sanberg-playing-Andy-Sanberg). Too bad it's for midseason - same for Gang Related, looking like the new Chicago Code for FOX in terms of quality.
Christopher Meloni is brilliant. It's all about comic timing and he definitely has it. The writing is pretty sharp and fast-paced, so of course it won't be popular -- maybe it's the new Raising Hope (which was sent to die on Fridays, there goes the only FOX series left that I'm a big fan of). 4 full seasons is already a great run for this amazing little show always in the shadow of a bigger, broader one (Glee, New Girl).
Sorry. Let me put a positive spin on it. If, instead of holding it, the "I am Victor" pilot is dropped by NBC (which there is an equal chance of) you may end up seeing even more Rose on HoD next season without Magnolia around.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Okay, this actually looks great, which I didn't expect. I'm in!

If NBC decides to pick up, retool, or sell "I Am Victor" to another network, Hart of Dixie will also lose Rose Hattenbarger.
ReplyDeleteGut me more would you? I can't stand the though of possibly losing two of the best teenage characters in TV history....

ReplyDeleteYay! (though no Magnolia is still gonna hurt... )
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree. Didn't expect to like it.
