Television Round-Up....Sort of
Nov. 8th, 2014 08:01 pm1. Am behind on Sleepy Hollow - it's not all that compelling this season. I agree with the critique that part of the problem is too much emphasis on the Crane family dynamic/love triangle and not enough on the Mills/Irving characters. Because let's face it the only interesting character in the Crane family is Icabode, and he's only interesting when he's interacting with Mills and the weird stuff in present day.
I think the show needs to get rid of Katrina. War can stick around as a bad guy, but less focus on him please.
2. Also behind on Arrow - haven't seen it yet this season.
3. Caught up on How to Get Away with Murder - and I think I figured out who did it, but may be wrong. Still watching because two-three characters have sparked my interest.
4. Doctor Who - finally saw last week's episode. I need to stop reading my flist's response to these episodes. I wasn't spoiled. But they said it was REALLY GOOD. I was quite disappointed. So far, flist/DW fandom and I are not seeing eye-to-eye on Doctor Who. They love the new Doctor, I'm..ambivalent. They loved this episode. I was rather bored for a portion of it. Although that's pretty much been the case for most of this season. The only episode I've really enjoyed was "Listen".
That said, there were a few interesting tid-bits in it. And a reveal that most fans predicted months ago. The most interesting portions of the episode focused on Clara and Pinkman, which has been the case for most of this season. The least interesting parts focused on well, everyone else.
I don't understand the Clara hate that was reported on various media outlets and fan boards by people on my correspondence list. I honestly liked Clara better in this episode than the Doctor. Fandom is goofy.
