    I intend to tune in for The River as well.

    Agreed. This show better go somewhere with the plot, and fast.

    I'm still watching, but I'm getting a little tired of watching people get killed indiscriminately. I understand that they're trying to be disturbing, but it's beginning to work. It bothers me seeing so many people who don't care about the value of human life. Abrams does the same thing on Fringe quite often. It's not shocking so much anymore as it is just sickening.

    A man's watch is a very cherished thing. You steal that, you might as well be stealing his soul.

    Even 'The River' has gotten old very quickly.

    I think it's pretty entertaining so far.

    It's not bad... I don't see it staying on for more than a season or two. I've seen all the episodes to date and I'll probably continue to watch it.
    If only I had more arms... and deeper pockets!

    I didn't even give it a try. I'm also tired of shows trying to be the next Lost. They've been trying to be the next Lost since 2004. Great things rarely try to be anything other than what they are.

    Right now, I will continue watching Alcatraz, but it's very likely that I'll get bored of it and give it up in a few weeks. Tuesdays are New Girl and Justified (probably the best show on TV right now), Wednesday is Modern Family, Thursday is The Mentalist and Archer, Friday is nothing really, since I usually am out and watch Fringe the next day. I mean, I watch other shows, like Hawaii 5-0 and Castle, but if I miss them, I don't really care. The TV outlook is kind of bleak right now.

    I miss Terriers.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Especially the blonde cutie running and bouncing around.
