I enjoyed R.J. Berger enough to keep watching (though that may not mean anything as I’ve actually watched all 3 seasons of HawthoRNe and I have no idea why!)
As for the new CBS shows, from the ads I’ve seen, I’m not terribly interested in any of them. A Gifted Man looks particularly bad! The Person of Interest in the title is “Ben Linus”–if he wasn’t in this show, I’d probably have no interest in seeing it.
As always, pretty much agree with everything Amrie said in her reality check.
Enjoyed Carla as a guest host–she had some interesting insight and comments.
