one last tv post this week (or a first tv post for next week, whatever)

The season finale of Doctor Who was last night. ( spoilers, sweetie )

I watched the pilot episode of Revenge. Then I watched episode two straightaway, because this is the one show that managed to fall into the irrational love category so far. ( premise spoilers )

And I watched the pilot of Terra Nova. (I graded a LOT of papers this week, which is how I managed to 'watch' so much TV.) ( slight spoilers )

General conclusions: watch Revenge for plot, long story arc, good acting and compelling characters. Watch Terra Nova for dinosaurs.

I haven't watched any of the new comedies. Also haven't watched Ringer, but apparently even Sarah Michelle Gellar can't save it from mediocrity. Don't care about Pan Am or that one with the Playboy bunnies.

my must-watch list of new shows:
Revenge
Prime Suspect

shows I'll probably keep watching:
Person of Interest
Terra Nova

returning shows that I like:
Parks and Recreation
Community (probably... I wasn't enamored of the latter half of season two, but in the premiere there was Inspector Spacetime and I was delighted)

And now there's no more Doctor Who for ages and ages and I'm sad. *sniffles*
