okay i was wrong, the first two episodes of iZombie were really good in my opinion, Chew/Bones combination crime procedural w/zombies!drew102e wrote:trailers look horrible for izombie, i hope it is better than what we've seen so farfudd71 wrote:The CW finally set their midseason schedule today.

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
I got to tell you I like iZombie, but what I find most interesting is how much my wife and one of her girlfriends like the show. My wife hate all zombie/vampire etc type stuff, this friend of hers is much more into sci-fi but not a comic book fan. Anyway they both love the show. Hopefully this isn't an isolated case and the show can pull in fans from other places.drew102e wrote:okay i was wrong, the first two episodes of iZombie were really good in my opinion, Chew/Bones combination crime procedural w/zombies!drew102e wrote:trailers look horrible for izombie, i hope it is better than what we've seen so farfudd71 wrote:The CW finally set their midseason schedule today.

The numbers have been very solid for the show, a great sign. The one slightly bad sign is the WB went crazy renewing a ton WB produced shows in the fall. Unfortunately the CW is a joint venture between WB and CBS, currently they are very low on CBS produced shows.

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
Same over at my house with the Flash. The wife can't wait to watch new episodes. I think the Flash has done a great job not confusing new non-comic fans especially with the Reverse Flash's origin.drew102e wrote:Ditto on that it helps if she's on board, happy wife happy lifefudd71 wrote: I got to tell you I like iZombie, but what I find most interesting is how much my wife and one of her girlfriends like the show

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
I simply love the Flash, it is my favorite show on TV currently. I must say it hasn't had the same affect on my wife and friends as iZombie has.
I have also caught up on Gotham recently and I think it is really good. Still no individual episode really stands out and I enjoy the show much more in larger chunks.

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
I love the Flash series. I'm way behind on my television watching and haven't had a chance to watch any of Gotham or Arrow since the midseason break but I stay as current as I can on Flash. We haven't seen the episode this past week with the Trickster but we will the first chance we get. My sister also enjoyed the show which helps.
Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
First episode of Daredevil was really good, trying to carve out 12 hours to binge the rest of the season

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
FYI, I've been warned by a coworker that Daredevil gets graphically violent in some of the episodes.
Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
not so far but i am guessing somewhere in the game of thrones/premium cable ballpark

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
I have watched all of Daredevil season 1, the violence builds throughout the season but there is even a fairly brutal fight scene in the first episode. What really stood out to me was the phenomenal job done by Charlie Cox as Matt, he simply gives a near flawless performance. If this was a film we might be talking Oscar worthy and I think the Emmy committee will recognize him with a nomination. The writing is also very solid. Most of the other actors seem ok to slightly off but I can't tell if that is the fault of those actors or just how weak they seem next to Charlie Cox powerhouse performance. Overall I really enjoyed it.

Re: Ranking the New & Returning Comic Book Shows
I watch everyone of those shows except Justified, if the voters actually look at performances and haven't filled out their ballot before watching anything Charlie Cox has a legitimate shot.drew102e wrote:fudd71 wrote:What really stood out to me was the phenomenal job done by Charlie Cox as Matt, he simply gives a near flawless performance.
