Lucifer isn't doing much for me :(
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code looks ok.
Lucifer looks amazing .. i can't believe i have to wait until February
ReplyDeleteAnd Scream Queens? The only show i will watch and the trailer is not here
ReplyDeleteScream Queens???
ReplyDeletewow for Minority Report
ReplyDeleteLucifer and Minority Report look awesome. Still kinda iffy on The Frankenstein Code but I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteGrandfathered: Looks like Baby Daddy, except you know... :))
ReplyDeleteCannot wait for Lucifer (Tom Ellis is doing a brilliant job in this trailer) and Minority Report!!
ReplyDeleteMinority Report looks Kick Ass !!!
ReplyDeleteLucifer: Did Rush die, sent to hell and became the next incarnation of the Devil and gained an English accent in the process?
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one getting "Video no longer exists" for most of these?
ReplyDeleteYeah, Tom Ellis is already a great Lucifer! He was the best part of the trailer. Too bad we have to wait till midseason for the show to premiere :(
ReplyDeleteMinority Report looks so much better than i expected. I am going to have busy season again
ReplyDeleteLoving The Frankenstein Code, not liking the cast for Minority Report but it looks cool, pass on Lucifer.
ReplyDeleteMinority Report looks so awesome!!!!!! Lucifer surprised me and Frankenstein Code was solid.
ReplyDeleteWont let me watch The Frankenstein code
ReplyDeleteI am getting that too.
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code looks amazing as well ... 3/3 so far
ReplyDeleteRosewood looked like the worst picked drama this season to me, but i am going to watch trailer to see if i was right
LOL I didn't know the Rosewood's main character was a guy. I like Minority Report. Can't watch Frankenstein.
ReplyDeleteBesides Rosewood FOX looks pretty good - better than yesterday
ReplyDelete"Video no longer exists."
ReplyDeleteOnly watch the promos for the comedies so fat, and although both look good (much much better than PAT), I'd say Grandfathered> The Grinder.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to lie. Knowing that the first incarnation of Frankenstein was Bookman the library cop from Seinfeld makes me more interested in that show.
ReplyDeleteAlso Scream Queens noticeably missing, along with TGtSL.
ReplyDeleteMost of them should be fixed now if you refresh the page.
ReplyDeleteEh Lucifer sounds gay to me.
ReplyDeleteTom Ellis in his natural English accent.....I'm in for this, I liked him in other shows and he's back.
ReplyDeleteGrandfathered was really fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWth no scream queens?
ReplyDeleteShould be fixed now.
ReplyDeleteLoving Josh Peck in this.
ReplyDeleteNot sure I like the lead in Minority Report. I'm not that familiair with his work. but he looks a little too..goofy, I guess.
ReplyDeleteStill going to check out the show, simply because I remember really liking the movie.
They didn't release it, a promo was shown at the upfronts though.
ReplyDeleteI am too.
ReplyDeleteAs i expected, i will definitely skip Rosewood. It doesn't look as horrible as i expected, but it looks like just another procedural show i will want to skip
ReplyDeleteUgh only show I'm interested in!!!
ReplyDeleteLucifer looks pretty decent, the humor is very good, the cast is just good... but I need to see more.
ReplyDeleteMy impressions after trailers: (What are yours)
ReplyDeleteLucifer>>>Minority Report>Frankenstein>>>>>>>>Rosewood
Phenomenal job from FOX with most of these, seriously:
ReplyDelete- Minority Report: 9.5/10: It looks really amazing, and I like the twists they are giving to the story. I am also really glad it is a direct sequel to the movie and not a reboot or something like that. And the actors seemed convicing
- The Frankenstein Code: 9.5/10. Seriously!!! I had no expectations for this one at all, but I thought the trailer was amazing and I ended it seriously bummed that it is midseason only. The cast has people I like and the story looked really good and with a lot of potential. I will for sure be watching and it just jumped to a priority in my list
- Lucifer: 8/10 I guess. I quite liked this, also more than I was expecting. The main guy seems quite capable and I think I will enjoy his snark and the type of humor. However, they need to be careful not to be overly cheesy. The scene with the angel guy coming in was quite bad, imo. But I see potential there so I will give it a try and I liked the overall vibe.
- Rosewood: 1/10: Big pass. Maybe it will be competent at what it does but feels like a show from 10 years ago that will bring nothing new to the table now. Someone will enjoy it but that one won't be me.
-Grandfathered: 10/10. Whaaaaaaat. I didn't know what to expect but I absolutely loved the trailer and 99% I will love this show. The cast seems to be terrific, all 3, and it seems to have both heart and be fun, which is what I need in a comedy. I laughed a few times and I think I will love the father-son relationship in there. Well played, Fox. But obviously it will have me worried about it the whole fall, why not give it the SQ lead-in, seriously!
-Grinder: 7.5/10. I liked it, but it didn't blow me away like Grandfathered. Still, I think this might be one of those comedies that has a lot of potential but that takes a bit to find its footing. I think Rob Lowe is a competent guy that will probably be able to carry this, but I am not sure I will really love it that much or not, we'll see. I will give it a chance though.
I want Scream Queens, FOX, come on already!
Frankenstein Code- Very surprised. Actually looks good.
ReplyDeleteLucifer- Ellis seems well cast but not that interested based on the promo.
Minority Report- Was skeptical about the show and the promo does nothing to change my mind.
Rosewood- procedural's not really my thing to begin with.
Both comedies had a few laughs.
Frankenstein>Minority Report>>>>>>>>Lucifer>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rosewood
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree, it looks so repetitive of 100 shows we have.
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code is the biggest surprise so far for me.
ReplyDeleteIt is probably about to come though
ReplyDeleteI thought Grandfathered was one of the best comedy promos I've seen, it looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteMe too, he already looks like a potential favorite character of mine!
ReplyDeleteRosewood doesn't look that great. Feels like a cancellation... It looks too bright to be a crime procedural drama. Which Is kinda good, but kinda out of place.
ReplyDeleteI agree entirely with this comment. I liked all of these trailers very much (some more than others, but still very much in general), except for Rosewood.
ReplyDeleteFrankenstein Code looks soooo good. Wish it could be paired with Empire instead of Rosewood although it has nothing to do with the audience lol
ReplyDeleteI loved the trailer!
ReplyDeleteGranfathered looks really good!
ReplyDeleteFrankenstein Code - It looks better than expected, but I still have some doubts with FOX's recent history of Sci-Fi shows.
ReplyDeleteGrandfathered - This could be a lot of fun actually, but not sure I could watch it weekly. It was more than funny enough to get me to try it though!
The Grinder - This was about what I expected.... Fun, but I can see it getting old in an episode or two.
Lucifer - I was hoping for something more. Something darker or edgier, but I'm willing to try it.
Minority Report - The movie was overrated and while this thankfully does not have Tom Cruise it does have Wilmer Valderrama. Ugh. Pass.
Rosewood - Meh. I'm getting tired of detective shows with a a gimmicky lead. Not my thing.
For now I think I will try the sitcoms and both Lucifer and Frankenstein Code, but none feel like "must see TV" or even weekly watches to me just yet.
Yep, the naive guy stuck in the friendzone, a person you want to root for.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised by The Frankenstein Code, looks good!
ReplyDeleteSo was I, really surprised, it looks very, very good!
ReplyDeleteWhy not release with the others?
ReplyDeleteI was surprised as well. Looks fine.
ReplyDeleteMinority Report looks good.
ReplyDeleteNot sure, but I can't believe they won't release it.
ReplyDeleteLast year, the Red Band Society trailer also came in separate. Why, I have no idea!
I really like all of these except for Rosewood. I will try them all. And I loved Grandfathered, The Frankenstein Code and Minority Report.
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code>>>>>>Minority Report>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lucifer
ReplyDeleteDidn't watch trailers for anything else.
They probably weren't finish shooting enough episodes (if they already started shooting past the first episode) to make a trailer.
ReplyDeleteI'm disappointed The Frankenstein Code is mid-season as well, is it bad I want Rosewood to be pulled early and replaced with TFC after like 3 episodes?
ReplyDeleteAhah, no, I want something like that too. But I think that won't happen. Even if Rosewood fails, I think FOX will replace it with Masterchef Jr. (which is probably the whole reason why it is tentatively scheduled on Fridays) and held TFC for a midseason launch, which is probably better for it anyway than a late fall throwaway.
ReplyDeleteLucifer looks like a cheesy version of Constantine, not sure if I'll try it. Frankenstein Code may compete with The Player for a spot in my schedule next season, they're like 50/50 for me yet, more promos will help me to decide when the time comes. I've never seen Minority Report movie, so I'm not excited for this one, but it's a good promo.
ReplyDeleteNow, the comedies: amazing! Both of them, really. I'm all in for Grandfathered and I was never really a big fan of Stamos. The Grinder has a great premise, lots of potential there.
Not even Tom Ellis can make me watch Lucifer, though I was tempted. HAHA ok lame joke aside, I don't want to watch any of these.
ReplyDeleteSuprisingly Lucifer might actually be decent. Tom Ellis and Lauren German seem to have good chemestry. Minority Report looks very good but sci fi shows like that never seem to appeal to the masses no matter how good they are. Dont expect great ratings for it. May also check Frankenstein Code.
ReplyDeleteAll of these trailers are made only with the first episode and I am sure SQ has it already.
ReplyDeletePhillip Baker Hall is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe problem is that sci-fi and Fox don't mix well.
ReplyDeleteUgh, what a wait that will be, it's actually become my most anticipated new show now after that trailer!
ReplyDeleteI liked Minority Report very much too and on the comedy side I was absolutely blown away with Grandfathered.
ReplyDeleteWell, they did carry Fringe to 5 Seasons and they are the home of X-Files. How many networks can claim stuff like that? At least they try!
ReplyDeleteFrankedstein>>>Lucifer>>>>>>>>>Minority Report >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rosewood.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can just stop including Rosewood lol
ReplyDeleteI liked the look of MR as well but I'm really not liking the cast, I'll try it though. I always have trouble finding comedies I enjoy but Grandfathered looks like one I might actually like, I wasn't blown away by it but I'm definitely going to try it. Lucifer was a letdown.
ReplyDeleteOnly the second network to release trailers, but they are definitely in the lead right now!
ReplyDeleteGreat crop of trailers even if the shows do not work out.
Exactly. And I think I will love his relationship with his dad!
ReplyDeleteMinority Report: Looks pretty good. Might check it out
ReplyDeleteLucifer: Pass. Looks decent but not interested. Also, can someone explains since when does the devil care so much.
Rosewood:Frankenstein: Looks good but not interested either.
Grandfathered: Looks great and quite cute.
The Grinder: Unfortunate title, but looks pretty good
But overall, minus Rosewood, FOX has a pretty strong slate this year.
Minority Report - I give it 1 season. Was the guy who put the brain scan cap thing on the pre-cog's head his twin? If not I have a feeling we will find out that his twin is evil and is selling his visions to people who are going to commit a crime so that they can make different plans and possibly get away with it. Or he has been kidnapped by strange religious types who think he is a messianic figure. As for the detective I am sure we will find out that there is a case that haunts her that she will need the pre-cog to help solve it. And the clues will go to the top of society. Stop me if you have heard this before.
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code - I give it 1 season. But I have to admit that I like the father being younger than the son as a gimmick (I am ashamed to admit I watched Forever S1).
And we can never get enough of sassy, tough female cop who talks straight and cuts through the BS! Minority Report, Rosewood and Lucifer.
A trailer was shown at the upfronts.
ReplyDeleteYup, but a straight-to-series show like Scream Queens is a different beast as they all tend to put footage of at least 2-3 episodes into a trailer, i.e. Glee. :)
ReplyDeleteAll new footage. Damn, I wanna see it. :D
ReplyDeleteI agree with your final assessment entirely that, aside Rosewood, the slate is very strong!
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code looks really promising.They should've premiered it in the fall instead of mid-season!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was another Pretty Little Liars spin-off that focuses on some random girl who lives in Rosewood.
ReplyDeleteI'll be checking out minority report, lucifer, rosewood and Frankenstein code...
ReplyDeleteIf grandfathered gets renewed ill perhaps check it out!
Agree entirely. I have high hopes for ABC too though
ReplyDeleteI would have been interested in Rosewood as a summer show if Anthony Michael Hall had a bigger role.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard for me to make real takeaways of the cast from the trailers but they seemed competent in MR to me. Cool to hear you will try Grandfathered.
ReplyDeleteYep, I remember that.
ReplyDeleteCan someone tell me which promo looks the best?I only watched TFC,there's a lot of them!
ReplyDeleteIt's the biggest surprise to me so far, trailer wise.
ReplyDeleteAgreed on the sassy cop thing!!
ReplyDeleteAt one time it was new and fun, but overtime it has turned into an intolerable cliche to me.
TFC was by far the best imo
ReplyDeleteEach people will have different opinions lol.
ReplyDeleteTo me: Grandfathered>TFC>MR>>>>>>>Lucifer>>The Grinder>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rosewood
I liked Lucifer the most
ReplyDeleteBut honestly, watch them all except for Rosewood, those seem like 5 strong shows
Particularly as the only tension was will they won't they.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree with the assessment of iZombie_fan below. Other than Rosewood, all of them seem to have potential and to be a matter of taste.
ReplyDeleteMinority Report is most VFX filled.
ReplyDeleteGrandfathered is funniest.
Lucifer has the most swagger.
TFC is biggest surprise.
Comedies: Grandfathered>Grinder
ReplyDeleteDramas: Minority Report>Frankenstein>Lucifer
Rosewood: To be avoided at all costs.
I have to say I'm impressed with FOX overall, I'm looking forward to Scream Queens, The Frankenstein Code just got bumped to my most anticipated new show and I'll give Minority Report and Grandfathered a try.
ReplyDeleteI never thought I'd say this FOX but if these turn out as good as they look (especially TFC), and most importantly you renew them(especially TFC!), I might actually forgive you for Almost Human...
After NBC lackluster trailers yesterday, FOX looks pretty damn good (minus one or two shows) Looking like a good year for FOX
ReplyDeleteMinority Report: Ok but probably won't end up watching.
ReplyDeleteRosewood: Horrible, couldn't even finish the trailer.
Lucifer: LOVE Lauren German but this doesn't interest me at all.
The Frankenstein Code: Looks better than expected but probably won't watch.
Grandfathered: Looks good will definitely give it a look.
The Grinder: I expected better. I am now skeptical of it.
Overall OK but probably won't watch most of them. I want a Scream Queens trailer already.
The only one I don't like at all is Rosewood, the others look amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code - I'm in. Looks like the best of the bunch.
ReplyDeleteLucifer - Much more cheesy than I imagined but I'll still watch. They should have rethought those wings on DB Woodside though. Those are a bit too much.
Minority Report - No thanks. They instantly lost me at Wilmer Valderrama.
Rosewood - A large helping of "meh" with a side of not enough Anthony Michael Hall being ornery.
It looks like a USA show. Much like Psych or Royal Pains.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, this is a very impressive plate of new shows! And there is still Scream Queens trailer to come. Damn, I will be watching a lot of FOX this year it seems.
ReplyDeleteCan I also say that how annoying is Lucifer's accent.
ReplyDeleteLast year I thought they had the worst promos actually.
ReplyDeleteConsider the source too since I ended up watching 3 of the new ABC shows!! XD
The trailers almost made me not watch they were that bad IMO...
I agree entirely on Lucifer and the wings scene was also the thing I disliked the most lol, that scene was not necessary and made it overly cheesy! Still didn't dislike it at all though and liked the tone/ humor.
ReplyDeleteyup I was so let down by NBC yesterday but FOX made up for it
ReplyDeleteYou know, you are right. That show does look like an old school USA series.
ReplyDeleteIt seems to too good to be true though, FOX's history with genre shows is not encouraging! Then again they have so many maybe they'll help each other out, they can't cancel everything either, NBC knows that lol.
ReplyDeleteMinority Report-Looks good too.Well done FOX!
ReplyDeleteYes, this is often misleading, that is true. But usually when I want to watch a show based on the promo (actually want to watch, not the "give it a try" thing) I end up liking it. There are a few exceptions (Vegas three years ago is probably the best one as I loved the promos and absolutely dreaded the pilot) but overall it fits.
ReplyDeleteMy feelings almost exactly!
ReplyDeleteSTUPID commercials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they keep freezing!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, I'd actually switch MR with Rosewood. That's how little I thought of the Minority Report trailer.
ReplyDeleteLucifer looks very funny and sexy. I will definitely watch that. Seems a better pair with Sleepy Hollow tonally rather than X-Files, but whatever I guess. Minority Report looks great, too. Will have to watch the others later.
ReplyDeleteKind of like all the jerk detectives that came along after House.
ReplyDeleteI think people should give FOX a break with the whole "they cancel genre shows thing". I think they do a pretty good job at leas with trying! They promote the hell out of the things and they tend to give them good slots. It is not their fault if the numbers then disappoint. And obviously, the more you try, the more # failures you will have, it's just how it goes imo. And for all the talk, they are the home of 5 seasons of Fringe and of the x-files. Which are other networks can say that?
ReplyDeleteIs The Frankenstein Code serialised? It certainly looks it and I definitely prefer serialised over procedural.
ReplyDeleteIts only going to launch with X-Files and then air with Gotham :)
ReplyDeleteI liked Blindspot very much (although I liked MR and TFC better) and I didn't dislike the player although I was expecting better.
ReplyDeleteOne of the very few times "Come to Daddy" has worked as a funny line for me! XD
ReplyDeleteI would imagine both, but leaning more serialized a la Sleepy Hollow Season 1.
ReplyDeleteLol, that was great.
ReplyDeleteLucifer will get a better chance paired with X-Files and Gotham though. Sleepy Hollow is too weak to launch anything.
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to see him punching and kicking people to get "confessions" out of them as a 65+ old man and then flip to the present day as a ripped 35 year old from Easternders (UK soap). But I get the feeling we might not see him passed the pilot, just like Clancy Brown in Sleepy Hollow.
ReplyDeleteI thought the same about both Frankenstein and Lucifer. Midseason premieres are always a toss-up and genre shows need all the help they can get.
ReplyDeleteI like Minority Report and Frankenstein Code. Meh on Lucifer. Grandfathered looks good.
ReplyDeleteAs a rule I avoid detective shows that try to pretend they are not detective shows because the lead is not a detective... Castle, Mentalist, etc.
ReplyDeleteOccasionally one is so charming or well done I make an exception (see Forever).
Hopefully it is.
ReplyDeleteAh, X-Files and Fringe, the two genre shows on FOX that did well that I didn't like! Maybe that's why im so harsh with them, it's just my own personal history with FOX's genre shows that isn't good!
ReplyDeleteI'm only interested in Lucifer and maybe The Frankenstein Code. The other shows look pretty bad..
ReplyDeleteLucifer and minority report look awesome!
ReplyDeleteAs much as i love British accents, i dont want Lucifer having an accent, and in fact, the character having one is actually turning me off, and gives the show more cheesiness than already shown. I kinda wish he could've hid it for this role.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds good, I'd imagine keeping a show like that completely serialised would be a challenge anyway.
ReplyDeleteI dislike both a lot so I can believe it...
ReplyDeleteI gave MR a break since I think a lot of other people will like it. I see it as another Almost Human, but maybe it will get a renewal. Wait and See.
Only thing I know is I will not be watching it.
I wish I could see Forever but ABC made that rather impossible... them sunsabitches.
ReplyDeleteBy cancelling it or region block thing?
ReplyDeleteCancelling. What makes it worse is the finale ended exactly as I feared it would, with Jo catching on to Henry's secret in the last moments with no resolution. Drives me up the wall.
ReplyDeleteFOX will have to promote the heck out of its comedies and they monday @ 9 given gothams decline
ReplyDeleteMinority Report: Trailer was interesting enough, so I will try. I appreciate that it's not a complete reboot.
ReplyDeleteRosewood: Seriously? Nothing new or inventive here. Definite pass.
Lucifer: Feels like a washed out Constantine. I will 100% watch the pilot but it will be have to wow me.
Frankenstein Code: I want to like it more than I do. The premise is there but from the trailer alone, I'm not sold on the main actors. I will check out the pilot, though.
I guess I'm really not cut out for comedy shows anymore as they all look so predictable and trying way too hard to be funny.
Ah yes...
ReplyDeleteI guess I expected that ending as well so I was okay with it.
Well I expected her to discover his secret by her seeing him die and vanish, but I was happy to see her discover it more so with her detective skills.
I think Gotham will rebound in the fall with the higher viewed hour and all.Also, as long as it is a reliable lead-in, even if unspectacular, MR should be fine. Sleepy Hollow launched huge there when Bones was just a reliable lead-in, same for The Following. If there is one thing FOX can do is to get its dramas out of the ground well I think.
ReplyDeleteI do agree with the comedies though and I really don't like them going up against The Voice + ABC comedies. They really should be at 9.
I think I would have been okay with the ending if they could have seen fit to let Lucas in on his secret in the finale. I probably would have been gasping for air from laughing so hard.
ReplyDeleteFYI: I don't watch animation shows but there is a trailer for Bordertown out!
ReplyDeleteCan't understand all the people fascinated by The Frankenstein Code, doesn't look that amazing to me :/ I want it to
ReplyDeleteLucifer was great till the guy with the wings showed up D: . Looks good tho.
ReplyDeleteFox has agreat line up. Hope it does good. But damed where is Scream Queens Trailer?
On the post already.
ReplyDeletePOI gets final 13 eps
ReplyDeletehttp://deadline.com/2015/05/person-of-interest-13-episodes-season-5-final-mentalist-1201424813/
Definitely gonna check out the first three. I was gonna watch Lucifer regardless because I've decided to watch all marvel and DC shows. Minority report seems intriguing and Rosewood as well but when you think about their are a ot of shows with an intelligent male who works with a female police officer.
ReplyDeleteDamn.
ReplyDeleteThe "final" part isn't confirmed, but this at least explains how Cyber was renewed.
Frankenstein Code looks like a contemporary Now & Again, except the part that we got Eric Close on that show:
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpLtrYd-sYM
Ok soo now that i've watched ALL the trailers except for freaking Scream Queens, i'll say....
ReplyDeleteThe Frankenstein Code- Adding that to my list.
Minority Report- pass.
Lucifer- Sorry you cute man you, but i'm passing on you.
Grandfathered- Pass. But John with that kiss at the end was adorable. Aww Full House flashback.
Rosewood- I've already dedicated ten yrs going on eleven yrs of my life to Bones. I don't need to watch it again in reverse. Pass on this.
The Grinder- Ok i may have to tune into this just to see Fred Savage. lol And the trailer, mostly him, made me giggle a few times. I'll give it a look.
Definitely will be checking out Lucifer and The Frankenstein Code.
ReplyDeleteMakes sense to me.
ReplyDeleteThe show has gone down hill and this year felt like the show's endgame. A Shortened season should be perfect way to wrap it up.
It may have gone downhill in the ratings but quality wise I don't agree at all.
ReplyDeleteFrankenstein Code - i will try
ReplyDeleteLucifer - not sure, maybe
Minority Report - i'm interested, but not sure
Rosewood - pass
OMG, Minority Report! Wasn't expecting it to look so good!
ReplyDeleteMost fans wouldn't agree with me I know.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was its weakest year overall and my absolute least favorite episode was many fans all-time favorite. What was it Cntrl-Alt-Del I think.. I quit watching after that episode and only just watched the remainder of the season last weekend.
The Grinder-9.5/10
ReplyDeleteGrandfathered-9.2/10
The Frankenstein Code-9/10.
Minority Report-8.5/10
Lucifer-6/10
Rosewood-0/10.
Wow, that is indeed one of my absolute favorite episodes of all time. Really didn't think it was possible that someone had it as least favorite. Well, that just goes to show that to each his own ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree with most of these although I liked Grandfathered the best and I didn't like The Grinder as much. But I will check out everything except Rosewood.
ReplyDeleteWell to be fair, Almost Human was borrowing a lot of elements from Philip K. Dick novels/films (Blade Runner/Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Minority Report, Flow My Tears, The Police Man said, ect) and it's not like this doesn't follow suit with Minority Report film, as an actual continuation/spin off. It will make for a while if FOX lets their showrunners tell a serialized story, instead of forcing them to procederialize it and show it out of order :p
ReplyDeleteWhere is Scream Queens? It's the trailer I want the most. I think Fox is heading to a good year. Between all trailers from Fox and NBC, Blindspot is still the one which interests me the most, but I'll try to check out all pilots. From Fox, Minority Report and The Grinder had the most appeal to me. Rosewood seems like just another procedural and I didn't like the lead actor of The Frankstein code very much, he seemed quite wooden. Lucifer has a strong Supernatural vibe but I'm not much into this kind of show. The lead actor is charming though so I will check it out.
ReplyDeleteAll I could think watching it was the show had finally and utterly jumped teh shark.
ReplyDeleteLike you said though... Each to their own. I'm okay with that.
*shrug*
I don't know why FOX isn't releasing Scream Queens to us, very rude of them, don't you think Greice?
ReplyDeleteThey didn't release the most anticipated trailer just like NBC!!
ReplyDeleteTotally! It's probably the one most people are interested about. I think it'll be their biggest hit this season. Tuesdays seem quite strong for Fox this year.
ReplyDeleteI am sad to hear this news. Some parts of this season have annoyed me but I was hoping that next season they would lay low, put the machine back together and begin to teach it all over again whilst they somehow fight Samaritan (funded by the lock-up full of money, RPGs and flat screen tvs). Helped by lots of past PoIs and the final scene would be The Machine coming back to life but using an automated voice because Harold didn't cripple it this time round.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I still think it is a shame they aren't using the very strong lead-in of Scream Queens into the comedies, especially since I've already fallen in love with Grandfathered. The comedies will have a tough time self starting against ABC comedies and the voice. But it shouldn't be impossible and Grandfathered looks so good that I am optimistic actually.
ReplyDeleteI'm not hot on Lucifer...at all. I love the character and love the way the source material is set up but this is basically Castle without the author and replaced with the devil.
ReplyDeleteThey are probably trolling with us lol.
ReplyDeleteLucifer and Minority Report.
ReplyDeleteI actually think ABC needs to step up their game on Tuesday comedy block, because FOX comedies seem very good. I didn't lol but they made me smile and the concepts please me. FOTB really needs a good lead in. On another note, I think that Scream Queens will totally crush Agents of Shield hehe I'm a fan of Shield but I'm not looking forward to its ratings this season.
ReplyDeleteAside from Rosewood and Bordertown, every FOX show seems to have huge potential.
ReplyDeleteI'm already sold on Minority Report and Lucifer (the trailer was really fun!). TF Code, The Grinder and Grandfather seem promising enough to give each one a try.
The trailers of FOX shows are immensely better than most of what NBC has. Heck, even while not liking Rosewood, its trailer is far better than Heartbreaker
Upfront Season so far to me:
ReplyDeleteWill watch a few episodes for sure: Grandfathered, The Frankenstein Code, Minority Report, Blindspot
Will at least sample it: The Player, Lucifer, The Grinder
No, thanks!: People Are Talking, Heartbreak, Rosewood, Bordertown
I've read Gotham will focus on the Joker and they will introduce Mr Freeze. So maybe the fans who left will come back.
ReplyDeleteFirstly, these shows, with the exception of Rosewood, look miles better than NBC's.
ReplyDeleteBordertown - Although, I probably won't watch it, I did laugh quite a bit during the trailer.
Grandfathered - I loved the trailer, I'll definitely be watching this one.
Lucifer - It looked good, but it's not something I'd watch so I'll probably pass.
Minority Report - This show feels like Almost Human, which I loved, so I'm 100% in for this show, and personally, I thought it had the best trailer.
Rosewood - Felt a bit of a been there done that vibe to it, plus, it looked awful. Big pass on this one.
The Frankenstein Code - Looked good, I'll definitely give it a shot.
Watching Lucifer, looks really really good and DEFINITELY going to watch Grandfathered. John Stamos and Josh Peck as father and son sing me up!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePretty much the same here, though I won't try out The Player and Grandfather is my sample list
ReplyDeleteWell, it will wrap with 100 episodes like Fringe. Not too shabby.
ReplyDeleteBesides, that way the fear of cancellation will go away
FOX has a very strong development I think and their most promising new drama, Scream Queens, isn't even here. I honestly loved all of these except for Rosewood (Which I really disliked), but especially TFC, MR and Grandfathered (it is very rare for me to like a comedy trailer as much as I loved Grandfathered). Kuddos to FOX, all of these trailers had movie quality imo.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree, that father-son dynamic looks amazing! I won't miss it!
ReplyDeleteYep, they did a good job here. If they keep it up they may see a very good fall
ReplyDeleteI agree completely with you. FOX's shows look miles better than NBC's. I wonder how ABC will compare tomorrow, better or worse than FOX?
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I'm quite impressed with the cinematography of these trailers. Except Rosewood, all the others had a movie like beauty to them.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree, miles better than NBC.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the pickups I was strongly leaning towards ABC but FOX slate is surprisingly really good. I was expecting to like Minority Report and I did very much but I wasn't expecting to really like TFC and Grandfathered like I did. So the bar is set up pretty high for ABC. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteRosewood feels so out of place in this bunch lol. It might have been better off if aired with the NBC trailers, here the difference in quality is felt too much.
ReplyDeleteI agree with pretty much all of this. I will still give Lucifer a shot though.
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't see Empire's lead-in being a miracle. Plenty of shows have launched as Idol lead-outs in its peak and still flopped. So I dunno. I wonder if there really is such an audience for that kind of thing, especially on FOX. This feels like a W25-54 show that maybe would have done well placed after DWTS on ABC or even paired with SVU on NBC, but on FOX, which is dominated by A18-34s? I have a hard time picturing it. I think it will be done by the end of the fall.
ReplyDeleteI might give it a shot, it did look good. I did feel though that it was it was like Constantine a bit, which I didn't like.
ReplyDeleteThey have some good shows, Quantico, The Catch and even The Family. So we'll see tomorrow I guess when the trailers come out.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't planning to watch any FOX shows, but after seeing the trailers I'll be checking out nearly all of them, even the comedies. FOX have a good set of shows, and a pretty good schedule, so it could be a good season for them.
Looks like i'll see you more in the fall. = P
ReplyDeleteHow so? ;)
