Anyone Watching 'LaBrea"? & A Comment On 'New Amsterdam'.... [View all]

I took in the pilot and wasn't impressed. It's another one of those SciFi programs that they try and hook you on and then cancel before they really reveal any kind of resolution.

I've been stung many times before on these SciFi's and I'm not going to be taken in again. This one seems to be poorly written. Dialogue sucks. Just don't think it will last the season.

The latest was 'Manifest'. I found that show compelling - but we'll never see any kind of explanation or resolution. Cancelled!!!

Also - a side comment on 'New Amsterdam'. I really don't like to watch medical shows - but this one drew me in. I like the 'social conscience' the show portrays. Unfortunately, they have jumped the shark this season. They have introduced 'romance' into basically all the main characters roles - and they are ruining this show.

We don't need another 'romantic soap'. I'm beginning to lose interest in this show because of the direction that they've taken it in this season.
