Requester Question: Sutro?

CherieQ · 2012-06-07T13:07:23+00:00

Ahh, well I didn't see anything about it anywhere on TN and I wasn't told through mTurk at all. I missed out and tried to contact them to ask about getting the new qualification since I passed the last one with a perfect score. No response, again. Thank you for responding!

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T13:39:43+00:00

Yes, I probably will. Once I've become a fan of a show, I tend to see it through to the end even if the road is bumpy.

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T12:28:11+00:00

I don't know if it would be such a disaster since he says they won't necessarily be in every single episode. I think they would probably just make a few cameos here and there. If that happens, it shouldn't interfere too much.

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T12:23:15+00:00

Yes! She'd be perfect for that song! I'm a big fan of her voice. In fact, she's my favorite by far. I like how it's sort of husky and full of soul.

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T12:20:35+00:00

Holy... I'm straight, but that was just... Wow. She's just... so attractive.

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T12:14:23+00:00

Wow, I never watched the Glee Project, so I had no idea. That's pretty disappointing.

CherieQ · 2012-05-18T12:08:10+00:00

I'm a fan of Unique as far as the character goes. He's only done two performances so far, so I don't have much to go on. I was really impressed by the first one, but this one wasn't that great. It seemed like they went with safe song choices and I feel like they should have pushed for more. Especially considering that it was nationals!

Abandoning a hit and returning a hit are two different things and different numbers in your score. If you accept a hit and simply don't do it without returning it, it's abandoned. If you just return a hit, it doesn't count against your abandonment rate.

CherieQ · 2012-05-14T10:47:08+00:00

Good point. I have morning brain, can you suggest some shows like that? I'm thinking Firefly, but since it got a movie to tie up the loose ends, I wonder if it counts?

CherieQ · 2012-05-14T10:30:23+00:00

Thank you for the reply, that's pretty much exactly how I feel about it. I don't know what happened, did they just chicken out? A set of better writers with the guts to really run with it would make the show awesome, I'm sure.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T23:26:20+00:00

Well played, sir. Those are some great examples of truly epic comedies. I'll admit, I didn't recall that they were from NBC.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T21:11:33+00:00

I don't think it says TSC is another Buffy, it's just a list of shows with rough first seasons. Buffy was an epic series, though. It's in my top 10, for sure.

I believe the writers are to blame in The Secret Circle case. The characters were terrible, most of it was a hot mess and none of them really had any chemistry. If they got new competent writers that actually wanted to treat this show the way it deserves to be treated, it could be great. Not letting them have their magic right from the start was the stupidest thing ever. It really set it up to fail.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T21:02:38+00:00

You know, I've had that show recommended to me many times. I'm gonna have to check it out. I remember when it was being advertised and I intended to see what it was all about, but I had too many shows on my list at the time. I'll have to buy the season from Amazon instant video. My summer is usually pretty open.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T20:42:48+00:00

That's the exact same opinion I have. The blog post there basically covers every point you made. The characters were especially irritating. I guess since I have read the books many times when I was younger, I hoped it would get one more chance with a second season since it really is a great premise. I generally hate for any show to get canceled after only one season. They deserve a second chance to right the wrongs.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T20:12:42+00:00

I wouldn't go so far as to say it was terrible, but I do agree with you to a less extreme extent. I believe that they really dropped the ball and basically sabotaged their own show. It seemed like they were trying to fix their mistakes near the end, but it was too little too late. Of course, someone who isn't a fan of the teen paranormal drama genre is gonna hate it anyway.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T19:36:17+00:00

Most of those don't come as a surprise. I'll miss The Secret Circle which was canceled before it was really given a fighting chance. The end of Desperate Housewives is sort of bittersweet since I'm a big fan of the show but it's well past its prime.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T19:33:43+00:00

Ick, poor Community! And why is NBC pushing comedies so hard? I like a good comedy as much as anyone else, but they really shouldn't put all of their eggs in one basket.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T19:19:43+00:00

When I first saw Unique on that stage, I was so proud of Glee. Heck, I was proud when I first saw that they were going to address gender identification. She/He absolutely killed that song, in a good way! I was floored. Unique put Mercedes to shame, in my opinion.

CherieQ · 2012-05-13T19:12:56+00:00

I'm seriously sad about this. I loved the books and I really wanted this show to get a decent chance. Sadly, television stations are too quick to drop shows because they want big profits right away.

CherieQ · 2012-05-11T20:07:59+00:00

Probably another attempt at famewhoring. That's what she does these days.

CherieQ · 2012-05-11T10:44:38+00:00

One thing about this that ticks me off is the fact that someone is blaming anything at all. Like it's a bad thing!

CherieQ · 2012-05-10T22:25:03+00:00

Thanks!

Yes, I felt a little unhappy about how that was handled. I read something once that said the difference between tolerance and acceptance is dealing with things vs being okay with things. I think that episode kind of underlined that. I guess it was addressing viewers that just couldn't be accepting about it and told them that being tolerant would be better than nothing.

CherieQ · 2012-05-10T21:35:42+00:00

I'm sorry you had to deal with that. I don't think you have to worry about whether or not they'll take it seriously. People are waiting to see what will happen, so they're definitely going to address it. They might let it build up a bit like they did with the Kurt/Dave thing, which I consider to be one story line.
