    I did not get into the Originals. . . so I need to see it from the start
    Funny thing. . . I am guilty of dismissing shows because they on CW
    it seems like a bunch of those Twilight type shows that don't appeal to me
    but
    I have been hearing good things about them

    I watch Falling Skies but it fell off pretty hard. I'm still committed to it, but I'm not sure I'd honestly recommend it. They sort of did a soft reboot at the end of last season to take the show back to its initial roots. We'll see if that improves it.

    I've got Last Ship set for the DVR. I'll probably wait to watch it until after I hear some reviews from people I trust. I watched that other submarine show with the guy from Homicide and it was horrible. Quit early on.

    Orphan Black (make sure to start with the first season)
    The 100 (the season just re-started last Wednesday with the Pilot) You can watch first season of "The 100" on Hulu

    both have a bit of a sci-fi bent, not a lot, but some

    Wilfred is awesome, but it's ending. I'd still say to go back and watch it from the start.

    I don't have time to watch anything other than the World Cup this summer. But that's OK, because this world cup is better than all the summer shows in the world put together.

    The only other show I've watched on CW is Smallville and Arrow blows it away.

    I know. . . . then I hear that the 100 and now the Originals are the same

    I could not deal with those Vampire Diaries type shows
    and I tried with the Tomorrow People but it was a bit too dramatic for me
    The ARROW is . .. excuse the pun . . .on point!!!

    Dunno about the upcoming Flash show though

    HULU 2014:
    I tried to get to it from my iPad - it is trying to force me to the App
    which only works if you got a Hulu Plus Account
    [Who has an HULU PLUS ACCOUNT???]
    Grrr . . . .

    I binged on Masters of Sex a few weeks ago
    Better than I expected.

    I suspect this season he will goto the Hospital his wife gave birth at . . .

    Your TV tastes often reflect mine. I gave up on Revenge at the beginning of season 3 because it became too much like a daytime soap. Erased last 20 episodes from the DVR last week.

    Hannibal is very talky, but it's one of the most well-acted, cerebral, visually stunning, and gory shows on TV. Seriously, I don't know how NBC is getting away with some of this stuff.

    Murder in the First, a new show on TNT, has some promise. It's pretty human (read: sorta boring) but it looks good to me, so far.

    TNT seems to have the market cornered on summer shows.

    I stopped at the premiere of last season, just couldn't handle it any longer.

    Franklin & Bash is pretty good. It's nothing groundbreaking or mind-blowing, but it's enjoyable as light fare.
