An American politics drama, Madam Secretary will air during the 2014-2015 season as part of the CBS network. First Impressions So up until, like, 3 minutes into this 5 minute trailer, I was really curious about this show. A sarcastic ex-analyst thrown into a high-ranking office? Yeah, I was thinking this show would be interesting without being too…

The Whispers, formerly known as The Visitors, is a Steven Spielberg series, so I’m sure it’s no surprise the show is about aliens. First Impressions Ooh, another thriller! And creepy kids! And one woman, out to solve the mystery! But… aliens? I hate aliens. They’re always a cop-out excuse for not having a feasible plot.…

Another new romcom, Marry Me is about the horribly, terrifyingly, hilariously embarrassing engagement of Annie and Jake. First Impressions Besides wondering where this guy is from (I’m so bad with recall! BTW it was Veronica Mars <3), I felt an overwhelming, painful awkwardness. But I couldn’t help but burst out laughing! Then, of course, I…

Stalker is a new TV series starring Maggie Q of Divergent and Dylan McDermott of American Horror Story. Investigating (you guessed it) stalking incidents in LA, the series follows a traditional crime show format, though with more victims per episode. First Impressions I don’t know… this show doesn’t seem like anything I want to watch. I can’t…

Another new romcom this season, A to Z is the chronicling of Andrew and Zelda’s budding relationship, set to last 8 months 3 weeks 5 days and 1 hour. First Impressions OMG BUG AHHH. This show reminds me of How I Met Your Mother, and not just because Zelda was the mother. This nerdy, try-hard guy (“Meant…

Based on the Hellblazer comic, Constantine is determined to solve some new problem, in the wake of condemning himself and a young girl to an eternity in hell. Trailer Impressions My first thought on this series was “but, I saw the movie…” which sort-of still holds true after watching this trailer. Not that I remember much…

Dr. Henry Morgan is a mortician who can’t die. Detective Jo Martinez is investigating a crime. Along with the only person who knows Henry’s secret, Abe, they make up the trio of this new fantasy, romcom, crime drama. Intrigued yet? Despite it’s very unimaginative title, Forever isn’t boring at all. Trailer Impressions My first thought during this…

Criminal Justice is an HBO series. HBO doesn’t have a public trailer, but there’s one from the original BBC series that can be viewed. I’m already bored just watching this trailer. It’s hard to tell what’s going on both visually and mentally. Clearly, a guy is convicted for killing a girl and for some reason he’s…

Galavant is a hilarious, honest musical – yes, you heard that right. Actually, I sort of liked it, and I felt that I should be a bit embarrassed by that! Trailer impressions I saw this pilot before the trailer, so I was so caught off guard when it started. I absolutely thought it was a joke. But…

A modern day “miracle”, Jane is artificially inseminated – on accident. If that doesn’t make this show sound bad enough – it’s by the CW. Now that we have established that this show is probably very trashy… let’s also come to terms with the fact that I will absolutely be watching it. Trailer impressions Another…
