Title: NBC New Falls Shows
Post by: BigDun on September 14, 2007, 06:33:18 PM
We downloaded The Bionic Woman, Chuck, and Life from Amazon Unboxed to our Tivo on Tuesday. Wednesday we watched The Bionic Woman, yesterday we watched Chuck and we are watching Life now.

The Bionic Woman - Two thumbs up.

Chuck - Much better than expected.

Life - The jury is still out.

Chuck is a cute show, but it's awfully flimsy.  They'll need to flesh it out a bit more.

is he supposed to be American? 

I was hoping Rome would be re-imaged with him and Pullo being into a modern day buddy cops.  And all the other characters get some sort of analogous position in small town northern Florida.

I didn't see it, so I'm not going to judge it, but Cavemen had some of the worst reviews I've ever seen for a TV show.  I was tempted to watch just to see if it was really that bad.

The random musical number this week was wonderful.  And I adore the cast.

On the whole, the show is a little too precious for it's own good.  It will need to find a little more depth, I think, if it's going to survive.
