Okay, gonna try to get back into the swing of posting again, even if it's really short just to get back in the habit. Very short reviews of stuff I got around to watching yesterday.
Person of Interest is back. YAY. I enjoyed that a lot from a season/future plot set up perspective. I also enjoyed having both my Reese ships handed to me on a silver platter with a bow on top.
Sleepy Hollow is ridiculously fun, OMG. Right out of the gate it has me making little flappy hands of squee in so many ways. I think it probably would not work half as well if the leads were not both individually charming as hell and had amazing sparky chemistry off each other (I'm not sure yet if I ship it or just friendship it but either way they are delightful together). Definitely a show I intend to keep watching and possibly/probably get fannish like about.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I am hoping that was a case of massive pilotitis, because. I didn't hate it, I will keep giving it time to find it's feet. But, yeah, I felt kind of let down by it.

The cast in Agents of SHIELD (I'm sorry, I refuse to use that many periods) hasn't quite jelled for me yet, but I'm chalking that up to pilots rarely being quite right. Mostly, it feels to me like what Torchwood: Miracle Day wanted to be but wasn't because, well, it was Torchwood, and also because MD was utter shit.

Hee, yes! The setup is just flat out fun and I can barely get over how charismatic the leads are, both together and separately. A lot of times it takes me a little bit to really fall in love with characters, but within ten minutes both of them had me going YES, YOU.
but I'm chalking that up to pilots rarely being quite right.
*nodnod* I really want to love SHIELD and there are enough elements to keep me going until it settles in. I didn't have a negative reaction to it so much as a 'meh' one, and part of that is that I think I was going in with too high expectations.
