Sadly, they're not venturing too outside of it. Unless the pilot was changed, it's still supposed to be a crime procedural. There are rumors it might be in the same universe as Flash/Arrow since Greg Berlanti is the producer of all three, but I don't think CBS has commented one way or the other of it being in the same universe.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Aw, I'll miss Can. He reminded me of an early Deniz. Katja, I won't miss at all. She had potential when she first started, but quickly became annoying.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
While this season has had it's moments I've enjoyed, I'm ready for the show to be done. Even without that promo, last night's episode very much felt like the show knows it's done and began to wrap things up.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Yay I was half right! Sad he's going to be a love interest for Vanessa. Never liked her. Deniz dated her too, so maybe I can still hope? I want my German Super gay couple damn it! LOL- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Thanks Huntress. Do you think AWZ will ever give Deniz another male love interest? I know on some forums, I've read comments that people feel the show hasn't gone there because they are afraid it would make Deniz and Roman less special and make the DeRo fans upset if they had him fall for another man. While I can't speak for DeRo fans, personally, I don't think it would. I was a huge DeRo fan, but Roman died like 4-5 years ago. I think the show messed up by not ever pairing up Joscha and Deniz. Heck, if VL isn't going to use Jo/Ollie, AWZ should snag him and pair him with Igor/Deniz. They could probably attract a lot of former Chrolli and DeRo fans.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Even though I hadn't watched VL in a long time, that's sad to hear about Ollie. Ollie and Christian were such a popular couple for a long time and both characters kinda got screwed over. Sad. Other than Deniz, who hasn't been with a man since Roman died, I don't think any German soaps have gay characters, feels like the end of an era. For the longest time, German soaps were the gold standard when it came to that.- HBO's Looking
I'm not surprised either. It's ratings were terrible even for HBO. I liked the show, but I won't miss it. I felt it could have been a much better show than it was.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
More female love interests for Deniz? UGH that's so disappointing. They really should try him with another man. Like you said, Roman was his most popular pairing and he's never had chemistry with women. It's funny you mention the B&B comparison. I don't get to watch all of AWZ, but it's always felt very similar to B&B except instead of set in fashion, it's sports/ice skating.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Hopefully they can find a way to keep it going. Always sad to see soaps disappear.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Sad, but not surprised about VL being cancelled. Rumors of it's cancellation have been swirling for at least 3-4 years now and it's ratings have been declining. Do you know how much time they are going to be given to wrap things up or has production been immediately stopped? When US soaps are canceled they are usually given some time to wrap things up.- Glee: Discusion Thread
Which is not at all what I said. If the ratings of a show is low enough, nothing else matters it will be canceled. If ratings are borderline (which Mindy Project is) other factors can help make it viable for another season.- Glee: Discusion Thread
Glee has had bad ratings all season. It's not a new thing. Only time people mention things like iTunes sales, international revenue is when ratings are bad. Yes, those can be factors, but they don't save shows. Ratings still matter the most and ultimate deciders of what gets renewed or not.- Glee: Discusion Thread
No it wouldn't. If nobody's watching the show, nobody's going to be buying the songs either. If FOX was happy with it's ratings, it would of been on the fall schedule and air all 22 episodes originally ordered for it's final seson. Instead, it's not on schedule and FOX wants to reduce the number of episodes, so they can end Glee as quickly as possible.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
Yeah, I didn't really like the surprise of David being alive either. I doubt Conrad's dead Toups. If I were to guess, I'm sure they'll say somebody drove by afterwards and took him to the hospital.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
Wow what a finale!!- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
I agree Huntress. I don't get to watch the whole show (only what people subtitle in English), but from what I do get to watch, there does seem to be several characters on AWZ that should go (glad you mentioned Katja, she has always felt like dead weight to me). Deniz, wasn't Roman his most popular pairing? If they aren't going to ever give him another male love interest, I feel instead of keeping him around they should have written him and Roman off together instead of killing Roman.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Glad I never invested in Joscha. I don't understand why AWZ doesn't give Deniz a new male love interest. It's been plenty of time since Roman passed and would probably have more success.- German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
So Ollie's new love interest starts out as his straight (for now) roommate, well if that's doesn't familiar to how Chrolli first met and got together. Is he a boxer too? lol Yeah that was a great story and I'm glad it sounds like Ollie's finally getting a new love interest, but come up with something new and original!- Revenge: Discussion Thread
I thought it was a good start to the season. Feels like the show is "back on track" and more like season 1 again, than season 2. Which is a good thing.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
Wow what a finale. Now that's the Revenge I fell in love with in season 1. While there was a lot of rewrites (Conrad's "there is no Initiative" line) I'm willing to play along if it means moving past this mess of a season. Lots of great cliff hangers. Let's hope with a new show runner next year, they've learned their lessons from season 2 and uses this great finale to launch a great season 3.- The Politics Thread
I think SCOTUS is going to punt on Prop 8 and dismiss case or issue a very narrow ruling that strikes down Prop 8 but apply only to California. I'd love to be wrong and see them issue a broad ruling that says denying gays right to marry is unconstitutional, but I don't think SCOTUS is ready for that yet. DOMA, I think SCOTUS will strike it down, but probably not under reasons of equality, but under reasons of states rights.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
Damn, I used to hate Amanda as well, but I also grew to like her. What a sad episode.- Revenge: Discussion Thread
After a hot mess of a season, finally get a great episode and feels like they are finally getting back to what made the show great in Season 1.- The Politics Thread
I can buy the argument that Mitt never really wanted to be President. There is usually two types of presidential candidates. Those that have always wanted to be president, that have that instinct, or "fire in their belly" and passion to run, and those candidates which have never had any personal ambition to run and are talked into running for one reason or another. The candidates with the fire and passion nearly always win (and generally make better presidents). Now this could be a case of "you can't fire me I quit", that does seem like a Mitt Romney thing to do, but I never saw from any of Mitt's speeches the personal disire or ambition to be president. He always came across as someone doing it out of obligation. - Supergirl: Discussion Thread
