The TV thread

I feel the same about Gotham. The premise is just so limiting and the execution is uneven at best.

The Flash is much better and a lot more fun than Arrow.

 

I agree. Really seems forced. Just does not flow.

 

Was wondering if it was just the first few episodes. I gave up on Parks and Rec and Modern Family really early too, but ended up really liking them. Might give it another shot. It's a good concept (though as you said, really just a different version of similar concepts).

 

Tell me The Odd Couple didn't stink it up as I fear it did.

 

There are at least two reasons I will never watch it. 1) Matthew Perry 2) I hate reboots.

 

So reassuring to see that newspapers are so unviable that the new version of The Odd Couple has to make Oscar a sports radio talk guy rather than a columnist.

I feared it could go really bad, but I would have to say it wasn't as bad as I feared. Doesn't touch the original yet -- and probably never will -- but I'll give it a chance.

 

Anyone catch the Two and a Half Men finale?

 

I haven't watched a second of it this season, but I have the finale on the DVR. We'll see if I ever get to it.

 

If this one fails, how many failed shows for him will that be since Friends? Odd Couple, Go On, Mr. Sunshine, Studio 60... I feel like I'm missing one...

 

I watched parts of it. I hadn't seen the show in years, so a good bit of it did not make sense. Broke the fourth wall quite a bit. Some fun cameos. The ending was just silly, but it seemed appropriate for that show. Basically, they knew it was well past time and spend the episode admitting as much.

 

Finished Bosch on Amazon.

It was OK. Sort of like watching a CBS, NBC or ABC crime show.

 

I think that is all of them. He did play a recurring character on The Good Wife. I never saw the others, but he was far from the only thing wrong with Studio 60.

I did watch the premiere of the Odd Couple. It wasn't horrible, but I doubt I'll bother to continue watching.
