But wait, were you just dying for Adam Levine's television drama acting debut? Wait, no more! I never got in to the whole American Horror Story thing, so I can't make any judgements so...I leave it to you to watch it and report back! |

 | 6. Arrow 8:00pm on The CW Thoughts? Did people like it? Tonight, Oliver runs into Laurel at the courthouse and learns she is prosecuting a man associated with his father. |
Arrow was ok. It still has that CW look but could be fun to watch, just hope it gets beyond the Buffy levels of effects. Some of the costumes just look like cosplay that just doesn't mesh with the mise-en-scene of Arrow.
Arrow had a fine first episode. I think it's a show that has legs. They just need to amp things up a bit by episode three. The main problem with the series will be that many people aren't familiar with Green Arrow, so they only have Smallville presented to work with in the minds of the mainstream TV watching crowd. Luckily, that can work in their advantage. All I know is THERE WAS A MUTHAFUCKIN DEATHSTROKE MASK ON THAT ISLAND! YEEEEEES!
I just finished watching season 1 of American Horror Story...and WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SHOW?! It's so goddamn weeeeeeird. I mean, Twin Peaks is weird, but HOLY FUCK! That show was some crazy orgy of horror, mind fucks, and fetishism that I can barely comprehend. I liked it, but I question WHY I liked it. Nonetheless, I'll check out season 2, solely because stories in asylums are typically interesting to watch. Playing with the ideas of reality and illusion are always fascinating to me.
Arrow continues to be pretty good although it has to prove that it won't become too procedural. There is still some cheesy/campy stuff in there but the action is good enough (not as good as Person of Interest but still) and Ollie's character is more interesting than I would have thought.
