The TV Addict 

The season finale of One Tree Hill isn’t until June 13th.

I don’t know, I’ll probably end up watching this show. I saw the pilot and it wasn’t too bad. It’d definitely be a guilty pleasure.

I’ve already seen the pilot as well and I think they re-casted the character that Tessa Thompson plays. I remember there being a young black actress in the pilot, but it wasn’t her. I’m interested to see if her scenes play better. I think it’s a good change.

Hopefully this show will be decent and stick around to give One Tree Hill more of a reason to be put to death.

The pilot has made the rounds on the Internet since before the fall TV season even began. Of course, I don’t condone illegal downloading….. But I do happen to have a copy of it.

I think you’re right Lynn. I saw that Tessa Thompson was listed as being in the cast, but I don’t remember ever seeing her in the pilot.

The show could do alright in the ratings. Shows like Kyle XY manage to get fairly good ratings at 8:00.

I saw this pilot as well. Didn’t see Tessa, but she must have replaced the other black actress. I think it has some potential, I’m just afraid they’re trying to hard. It goes a little too far in the first episode towards being something I don’t think it can handle. If just trys to stay a mediocre guilty pleasure it will do okay.

I saw the (original version of the) pilot and thought it was a dud. The guy is creepy and ugly, the girl is from the Marissa/Peyton/Joey class of annoying characters (with no Summer/Brooke/Jen to balance her out), the dialogue went “clunk, clunk, clunk”, the acting was bad, the writing was hamfisted (”He kicked a dog! He must be evil!” Oh, the subtlety!), the music budget was too big for the show’s own good, and they could have gotten at least three more scenes into the show if they’d just eliminated the pauses.. between… Johnny’s… words… and… sentences (which made his assertion that his mother pausing before saying she loves her husband proves she doesn’t love him particularly ironic)!

I’m always up for a cheesy new summe addiction! Yay! (Does anyone remember American Dreams–was it even called that? The one with Kate Bosworth on the WB. That was another good one for mindless summer entertainment.)

I just watched the Pilot, it wasn’t as horrible as I had imagined. Although the dialogue is rather appalling in places, it was as if they hadn’t polished the script before going to film the episode. It’s a shame because I used to really like Dawson’s Creek, this seems a little mediocre for Williamson. I think one of the only intriguing things about this show is Cliff, he’s very charismatic I liked him the minute he opened his mouth. The other characters are a little annoying. The lead boy seems as if he’s based on Veronica Mars but in a really bad way… I can’t believe VM got cancelled and they will show this dross. Hm, who knows though it may get a little better.

uh tessa thompson’s character is a completely different one from the girl in the pilot.
