  1. I'd only be interested in them showing the rest of the episodes if they had some sort of resolution. I don't care if shows don't run forever with multiple seasons - and I say that as someone who is still watching Supernatural... I would much prefer a satisfying story with a satisfying ending, even if it takes just 13 episodes. Or 4. Who knows? What I really can't stand is this "let's try this" then 2 weeks later, "nope!" and "next!". Why should I give them my viewing time if they are just going to screw me around?
  2. One thing: I really, really didn't care about KH's romantic drama with the is-he-or-isn't-he-guilty doctor. Yawn. She was just part (and not the most interesting part) of a nice ensemble to me.
  3. Wow. That was quick and brutal. And kind of disappointing. I thought it was quite good (for what it was). I didn't find Heigl annoying. I LOVE Dule Hill. I would watch him in anything. It was nice to see Judith Light and Elliot Gould. I liked Laverne Cox's character. Basically I'm agreeing with most of above, except I didn't find KH to be a problem. What are they wanting instead?
  4. I’m a wreck. I just saw Lion today too so I am all over the place. That was brilliant. Upsetting (as in apple cart and personally) but brilliant. But Waaah! I need a Good Michael, especially at the moment, and now that illusion has been shattered and we have the rest of 2017 in front of us. And we’ve got no idea what the Good Place would be like because we’ve all been in the Bad Place. All season. Evil Ted Danson. The world is wrong! Good Janet save us! That Schur guy is just- I need to process. Yes, Michael is obviously tweaking a la noting Eleanor's motivation with the mailbox fire. I'm trying not to ship anymore but that Eleanor and Chidi stuff at the end was so sweet. And will they recognize each other in some way when they meet again? Any of them, you know, soul-mate style. It's still the four of them in their private hell presumably. I guessed NOTHING. And I am normally pretty good at plot developments and lines word for word. And a nice Memento style start to the next season perhaps?
  5. Oh, okay. I thought that was his earthly place. Obviously I have not watched closely enough and will need to re-watch all of them pronto. Tahani's house is impressive but I don't think I'd want it. I'd go for a well-appointed cabin in the mountains. I'd probably be happy in Eleanor's as well, bar the creepy clown nook.
  6. It's probably come up before, but I don't get why Tahani and Eleanor have their own places but Jason and Chidi seem not to. They have lives and backstories (oh, how I love those backstories) so don't seem to just be constructs in Eleanor and T's universes. Surely their versions of the Good Place would include their dream houses, but I don't think it's even been referenced. Of course, Jason has is his cave in Tahani's house and as he is not meant to be there, that could be why he doesn't have a place, but when real Eleanor comes along, they all have to work out how to fit in to real/fake-Eleanor's house. I would have thought Chidi would have a book-filled library or something at the very least. So much thought has gone into this show's universe, I don't understand why this is not explained. It can't be an oversight surely.
  7. Nothing particular to add, I've just been snarking about another show, but I just need to say that I love this show. Love, love, love, love. LOVE.
  8. I am conflicted! I’m curious. I love me some twistory, peoples' relatively positive comments above are making me question my hold-out status, but I have so much ill feeling after all the manipulative rubbish in season 2 and 3. I don’t trust them, and I don’t want to give it my time. I read something somewhere about how TPTB will often tank a show if its audience is not conforming to their target demographic. Eg. too many women either in it, (or possibly female viewers) for a show they were trying to skew to a male audience. And probably vice versa - although I don’t think that they are as worried about that. Maybe last incarnation SH’s viewing demographic wasn’t fitting where they intended, hence the reboot. But I guess who cares? I’m probably not their target audience anyway, I certainly got the message at the end that they didn’t care about me as a viewer. So, we’ll probably leave it at mutual dislike. I’ll be reading the comments here though. Always entertaining. Three (still holding grudges into 2017)
  9. I'm afraid to speak of my affection for this show, because I seem to have the kiss of death. The fact that it is just competing with repeats of Kevin Can Wait is pretty depressing. I think it's got better every week. I'm loving the unpeeling of the characters. Plenty more flaws to discover. I like the ideas getting thrown around. We may all come out of it better people. Overall, it's fun and the cast are fun. When it started, I couldn't see where Schur could go with the premise, it seemed limited, but he's been building on it every week. We're in.
  10. You know what??? (still pissed off here.) I could cope without Ichabbie (tho I loved them), the relationship drama etc. but they had such a fantastic show/premise in the beginning (S1): history, mystery, horror, monsters, myth, humor. A show with a bit of perspective, and a fantastically diverse cast and they stuffed it up so completely! Old ground, I know, I'm obviously not over it. For a while there Sleepy Hollow was my happy place and I was prepared to forgive it a lot because I thought they'd right the wrongs eventually. But noooo. Don't worry. Brief flare up. I'm over it. I just haven't found a replacement yet. It's made me hyper aware of all the gaping inadequacies in what we're offered. I want better. Much, much better. And when I read of these developments it just annoys me all over again. Call it something else, show destroyers. You ground SH into the mud. At least I'm reading more.
  11. No yays from me. I can't find a scrap of enthusiasm. And an evil tech billionaire... how original.
  12. And I also liked Janina in Mysteries of Laura. But not enough to change my mind about this.
  13. Hah! I'm glad you're all still here keeping the faith (or lack of). I still can't believe what a dog's breakfast they've turned this into. I'm getting a headache from all the eye rolling I'm doing reading about "the improvements". What an uninspiring mess. I won't be watching.
  14. Fingers crossed it is a role worthy of her talent.
  15. I stopped watching Castle a while ago, in part because I got so bored with the love story and partly just bored. Why do they think they have to turn relationships into a drama? They did a similar thing with Beckett that they did to Jenny. She fell in love and became all soft and vulnerable and had trouble dealing with it. Dealing with her "feminine" feeelings that she'd pushed down for so long. That may have changed on Castle, as I said I stopped watching, but all of a sudden a BAMF woman falls in love and loses what made her great because feeeelings turn girls all conflicted and soft. This is not thought through, you can tear me down, I may be wrong, but why can't BAMF women just love and get on with things? I'd be up for that.
