Members slick jones Posted April 24, 2017 Members Share Posted April 24, 2017 Looks good to me. A better looking summer series than many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 24, 2017 Members Share Posted April 24, 2017 This show has already been pushed back once and could get pushed back again, in the event of a strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted April 28, 2017 Members Share Posted April 28, 2017 Is Still Star-Crossed the dumpster truck fire of a series? http://tvline.com/2017/04/27/blind-item-bad-tv-series/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 28, 2017 Members Share Posted April 28, 2017 That would be too bad if the series is Still Star-Crossed but for several months, I've been reading about the saga and I know there have been some delays in production/post production. As I understand, episodes are "in the can" and won't be affected in the case of a writer's strike. I don't know what that means in terms of quality. Does this mean that the British just do Shakespeare better? Shonda should've produced a joint venture with ITV or Channel 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted April 28, 2017 Members Share Posted April 28, 2017 I've been trying to think of another series that fits the bill, but nothing else really does. The vague "seven month" time frame is also telling as a lot of summer programming might be pushed to fall to make up for any holes on the fall schedule. Plus, what other producer has as much pull as Shonda has at ABC? She even got the mediocre rated The Catch a renewal last year over Castle and Nashville! Add that Shondaland has no experience in filming a series in Europe (Italy, I believe), no experience in doing "historical drama" and Shonda's huge ego I think it's an easy assumption that it is. ABC has had plenty of opportunity to put it on the regular season schedule and with it being expensive I can't see it breaking even as a summer series when viewership is lower.

Members Vee Posted April 28, 2017 Members Share Posted April 28, 2017 The thing is, the show is not Shakespeare. It's a bizarre 'sequel' to Romeo & Juliet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted May 30, 2017 Members Share Posted May 30, 2017 I watched it. Totally loved it. But I'm fond of period pieces. You throw in these black leads and I'm hooked. Shonda will screw this up though. She just can't help herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted May 31, 2017 Members Share Posted May 31, 2017 I forgot it came on yesterday. But I watch it on demand. I like it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 4, 2017 Members Share Posted June 4, 2017 The language is Shakespearean though. I just saw the premiere episode and I don't think it was bad at all. The characters are interesting enough for me to want to tune in next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 24, 2017 Members Share Posted June 24, 2017 Still Star Crossed is being moved from its current Monday timeslot to...Saturday. In the summertime. That does not portend positive things. I hope the show can somehow pick up an audience. I really like the cast and the story itself isn't bad. ABC's new Shondaland series 'Still Star-Crossed' is moving from Monday to Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted June 25, 2017 Members Share Posted June 25, 2017 I watched the first three episodes together a few nights ago. I liked the cast, and the stories entertained me to keep watching. Unfortunately, the Saturday slots are the death march of any series. I'll watch the rest, though.
