Members wingwalker Posted March 3, 2012 Members Share Posted March 3, 2012 This one sounds cool, but sadly sci-fi shows rarely thrive on network tv. This would probably be more successful in cable. This sort of sounds like a "Golden Girls" esc comedy. I'd like to see this see the light of day. I'd love to the westerns return to network tv, there hasn't been one arguably since Dr. Quinn and this one sounds good, but for some reason, I think Westerns are more suited for CBS, than NBC. May not be the most creative, but I dig it. So is this sort of like a Female version of Big Bang Theory? If this gets picked up, I can see this getting the post Big Bang Slot.
