 Alcatraz
A friend suggested we watched the pilot. Good God, what a bunch of cliched, hackneyed, boring bollocks. And especially bad acting from the Lost dude. He fell asleep and I got on Skullbrain. It's still on.
How come the decent shows (Rubicon on AMC, Prime Suspect - which wasn't a patch on the original, but had a blievable good strong female lead', etc...) get cancelled and we get shoddy crap like this .... Sigh. JJ Abrams what were you thinking.

 Re: Alcatraz
Someone needs to stop Abrams from making shows. And tell him not every show has to be some mysterious crazy thing with a plot no one really knows. I turned it off after a half hour I think. It was horrible.

 Re: Alcatraz
I don't usually watch new shows. I'm always like 10 years behind on TV -Have you guys heard of this show Buffy!?
But I gave this a chance and it stunk. I lost interest pretty quickly.

 Re: Alcatraz
Missy and skylar also watch their programs on a B&W 19" floor console tv that weighs just under 500lbs and it has a one button 'clicker'

 Re: Alcatraz
Good to know. I saw a preview and said that looks interesting but will probably suck. Glad to see I did not waste my time. Carl also (to add to good shows being cancelled) Why do they fire good directors/showrunners, slash budgets on proven winners (i.e. Walking Dead) and give a season of crap (season 2) instead? Doh!

 Re: Alcatraz
I'll save you 6 or so years of valuable tv watching time .... Some guys escape, Alcatraz gets closed down. There was a guy w some birds. And God & The Bible. The End. It's like a prequal to the movie 'The Rock'.
JJ Abrams has all ur money to go shopping at Star Case with.
do need to finish Rubicon, that was a good one what I saw of it.

 Re: Alcatraz
I wonder how the next rebooted Star Trek movie will turn out. The first one got a pass for being very entertaining à la "Wrath of Khan" but I dunno ... Abrams seems to excel at starting with a good idea and then proceeding to muck it up.

 Re: Alcatraz
Pilot was ehhh.. it is nice seeing LOST cast members on new shows.
I am anxious to see Star Trek 2 or whatever it will be called. I usually have positive expectations for JJ Abrams work.
