Enjoy using Sidereel to keep track of the shows I watch, and more! I'm not one of those people who loves everything they put on tv! Most stuff just isn't for me, such as shows about people solving crime. But I love it when I actually like something!

It snuck up on me and made me like it. I didn't know from the first episode that I would get so into it.

I feel like I missed the point. Or I just didn't understand it. This show says it's about a superhero, but that person is not in the episode. This show is about a very boring lady who is a detective and goes around taking pictures of people and gets a case to find a couples missing daughter.

This show is literally toooooo boring to be watched. I just keep fast-forwarding. In the end she does solve the case but the missing daughter kills her parents for no reason at all. I was actually glad I didn't waste much time watching the show because it ended so pointlessly and stupid.

There is a scene during this episode where the detective lady lifts a car, but there is no reason or explanation of why. She just does it. She doesn't do anything else at anytime in this show that is in any way related to what a superhero would do. She doesn't use any super powers or fly or do anything interesting. She is just a boring detective for a very long 50 minutes of a dull tv show.

I just don't see how anyone could spend 50 minutes of life watching this pointless show.

I didn't understand it, and turned it off before the 1st episode finished. oops.

Rory has changed personalities.

Previously when she had a boyfriend she felt conflicted because she was attracted to someone else. Now she has a boyfriend, and a no strings sex relationship with an ex and doesn't even have a care. I found that hard to enjoy.

They kept showing the boyfriend as a very bland person no one remembered. One who Rory just couldn't remember to break up with. I wouldn't want to be treated like that AND cheated on.

Also I know that celebrities get plastic surgery on their faces, but when they do, I seem to stare at it feeling confused and counting all the ways it's just doesn't look the same. That is all I was thinking when Lorelai was on screen.

A 90 minute episode where nothing happens is too long.

I do feel that a one star review is too low, but what happened in the first episode that was interesting? The only interesting part was seeing the old characters again. That is it, Just seeing them. What they were saying and doing was not interesting.

And Paris Geller, Rory's old high school friend is now running a surrogate child facility. She shows people brochures... in addition to yelling at staff. She seemed to have such big after college dreams and I was sure she would have moved away to a big city to live her important future life. That didn't happen, but her personality hasn't adjusted to deal with the shattering of all her dreams. In fact, she doesn't seem to notice.

Time has just gone by and this is where she is. Like everyone else.

They only good thing about this show is it has a black character. Will he be harassed every time he goes into the past? What situation it will be each week to harass him, and how, in the past when it was very common, will they not use the N word?

Her superpower is a piece of glass that pops out of her hand? And the guy falls asleep and a large sheet/cape appears on him? Those are the exciting facts that made me want to watch the second episode. NOT.

There seems to be a trend recently where they just take for granted that people will keep watching the next episodes to figure out what the show is about, INSTEAD of explaining what the show is about in the first one so you will keep watching because it is interesting!

It seems to want to be as serious as a drama, but then it has things in it that are too silly. It's supposed to be funny, but isn't. So I can't take it serious or laugh.

It's funny, and has a perspective on large sized people that you usually don't see. She likes to have sex and doesn't spend all her time being ashamed of her body or trying to be a thin person.

This show was not realistic. The man who becomes president after everyone else qualified to lead dies, seemed ambivalent and totally unsure of himself. His major question was should he quit or not. That made me angry. I want someone as a president who KNOWS THEY WANT TO BE THERE.

Then then the man goes into a meeting with a world leader and his personality as president totally changes. It was not believable or realistic that he would be so weak and wimpy one moment and then totally switch the next.

You know in reality right after that meeting he would just go home and spend two hours still wondering if he should continue being president.

So basically I didn't buy it at all.

And another thing. Right after they show the capital blow up, the next scene is him at home being a pathetic dad to his wife and family. Why would anyone care at this point about his home life, WHEN WE JUST SAW THE CAPITAL BLOW UP?

The last thing I was thinking was "I wonder if his kids have homework?"
