    I also thought it was pretty good. I also like that they've set up an arc for the season so it's not going to just be monster of the week every week.

    I liked it, just thought they made it way too much like I Robot.

    I liked it. It's like Deus Ex, I robot, and some parts reminded me of Blade Runner. At least it's way better than Agents of Shield and cast seems to be pretty solid

    Previews make it seem like it is going to be monster of the week though.. I wish it was just a continuous piece focused entirely on his investigation of the syndicate, but I know shows like that don't do well..

    Lulz, just started watching the new episode and the leg stab has won me over. Guess I'm dropping Blacklist for this show~

    It's still monster of the week for sure, but hopefully every couple episodes will throw a few minutes towards a bigger story. Also the mix of humor really has me enjoying the show. The leg stab and dating profile stuff was funny.

    They're on at different times though.
    Hell, I watch Castle, but I grab Blacklist later.


    Anyways.
    Don't scan my testicles.

    I really liked both episodes so far. Karl Urban and Michael Ealy have some good chemistry (the leg stabbing thing cracked me up pretty good. So did tossing that MX out of his car after it called his noodle bluff) and I love the aesthetic of the show.

    It had the second largest viewership last night in its time slot (tied at 9.1M with Amazing Race, behind Football) and the best demo rating of the night behind Football (at a 3.1. Next closest was Family Guy at 2.2).

    Scheduling is a little different in Canada (Castle airs here at 8 on Sundays so Sunday nights are pretty loaded for us. Once Upon a Time > Castle > Almost Human/Hockey/Football > The Mentalist > wait until 12:30 > The Walking Dead encore > The Talking Dead encore last night haha), but assuming it can bring most of its viewership with it to Mondays, what's it competing against at 8PM? HIMYM/Two Broke Girls on CBS, Dancing with the Stars on ABC, and The Voice recaps on NBC. I wouldn't really call that stiff competition, and it also leads into Sleepy Hollow which has done very well for itself. This is also the station that let Fringe limp along with its < 3M viewers on Friday nights at 9, so unless it completely tanks I think it's a safe bet to be around next season.

    Yeah, I approve of pretty much anything with Karl Urban as the lead. The dude is great anything I've seen him in. Even in shit movies. He fully embraces the role. Has a great deadpan delivery style. And yeah, loving the chemistry. As long as they keep up this pace, they have a good one on their hands.

    It's only 2 episodes, but yah, it's a genuinely decent show. I look forward to it being cancelled after 13 episodes like firefly cause Fox being Fox.

    I dunno, it's JJ Abrams. I could see his name alone carrying it a full season, if not longer.

    "Your head's full of bubblegum; you can't do this alone."

    I really like the writing on this show.
