My dismal track record of worthwhile TV shows

It’s mostly the sci-fi genre that I’m losing out to it seems:

– Firefly
– Defying Gravity
– Star Trek: Enterprise
– Stargate Universe

I mean, these are shows that I was really into. And looking at the list, I believe it was more for the character development than anything particularly sci-fi in nature. Perhaps the sci-fi crowd is more interested in the, you know, sci-fi.

Other shows that didn’t make the cut:

– Men in Trees

And the rest that are mildly entertaining and likely on the way out:

– Fringe
– V
– The Event

Save the cheerleader? Or, cheerleader saves?

I have no idea where Hereos is going with the Claire character. As it stands now she’s not doing anything particularly “heroic”.

Now, I do recall an earlier episode where HRG was gruesomly shot through the eye and subsequently died – only to be saved by some concoction involving Claire’s blood. Sooooo… why isn’t she out there saving the masses with her bro and good ole, home-grown Clairelixer?

Seems so obvious and yet here we are watching Claire’s painful interaction with an awkward college chick of questionable motives, versus something truly worthy of the series title.

What a waste.
