I like NCIS New Orleans a little bit since ~the city is like a character~
That was lame.
Channel Zero: Candle Cove
Okay, I'm in for this. The creepypasta has legs.

Absolutely. The tooth fairy thing is awful.
This is a weird point to make, but I think I've reached an equilibrium with how I juggle watching every-fucking-show. I mostly watch network stuff week-to-week, and cable/prestige shows I watch in several episode chunks at once or even whole seasons.
More specifically - The Grinder was totally off my radar, but I watched the first three episodes on Netflix and laughed my butt off. Then, of course, found out it was mercilessly cancelled.

I really enjoyed the Grinder.
Was it cancelled so mercilessly though? I mean, any show that has a character as GUT WRENCHINGLY annoying as Ethan is gonna be on the chopping block. Wanted to smack that kid.
BUT-there was at least enough good in this pilot season that a second one could redeem it.

Of the people I know that have watched it, you are in the minority of not liking it. Personal taste and all that
I DID say there was enough good in it that a pilot could redeem it didn't I? Like, the ones where they focused on Dean's acting career-LOVED-those, they humanized the guy. Maybe the second season should've had him getting back to his acting roots, instead of continue to play the Grinder. ALSO-acknowledge Ethan is the prick of misery he is, little jack ass.
holy crap you really hate a fictional child character on a failed sitcom
It's only okay to hate fictional child characters on successful sitcoms. Like Full House.
i mean. yes? it's at least more okay / less bizarre
Okay out of ALL the weird things I do, not liking a bratty kid-character on a sitcom should not be one of them, just saying.
Brooklyn 9-9:
Pretty good ep but...is Newgirl actually any good? From the clips I've seen, and the cameo of their main character I'm not given much confidence.

Aw man, why does the awesome bird monster have to hide his awesome bird monster face when he morphs in to the Silver ranger? BIRD MONSTER!
I wasn't really sure I'd like the Scream TV series, but it's actually not bad so far. It's basically any CW superhero show, but with a slasher movie theme instead of capes and powers.
and better music
GRAH-missed another one, what is WRONG with me?
Daredevil season 2
Hmmmmmmmm, this guy just bought a bunch of dangerous weapons from me, and said barely a word while doing it...I'll ask if he likes kiddy porn, that sounds sensical!
WASTED!

Finished Scream, I really enjoyed it. If you're looking for a decent thriller/horror show, give it a chance.
Netflix and CW have reached a deal that will allow NF to stream new seasons only eight days after a season finale. That's amazing.
TNT is gonna be pissed though, I think. They've been the CW rerun station for a long time and this is going to hurt them.
I didn't realize TNT was still around. Looking up their show list, I can see why I lost track of them.
Ehh... their original stuff is okay. Librarians is basically a PG version of Supernatural. Fallen Skies was basically The Walking Dead But With Aliens. But yes, it mostly exists to air reruns of dramas at this point.
Flash
iZombie
Supergirl
Supernatural
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
I mean, 5 shows currently worth watching on one network is pretty good, I'd say. I've heard Legends of Tomorrow is alright but I still have to finish the first season.

Hrm. I must respectfully disagree with some of the items on your list, but I do not begrudge you your enjoyment of them.
Supernatural needs to end soon. It's not BAD, in fact it can be quite good still. But it's only a matter of time until it goes full suck.
I would say this would be Buffy, Angel, Gilmore Girls, and Veronica Mars for me, if we're counting CW as the merger of the WB and UPN.
(As far as future potential, Supergirl is good so far, Legends of Tomorrow is a'ight, I admit I haven't watched Flash or Arrow.)
I was surprised with the most recent season, it was pretty good all-around. I've come to expect about a 50/50 ratio of good to suck, but I'd put the last one at like 80/20.

I haven't seen the two new shows, but I think the CW is actually the best network (NETWORK! NOT CABLE) as far as hit/miss ratios go. They're a little helped by not having to fill as much time as ABC/CBS/NBC, but

I like CW a lot, but a lot of times their stuff is too CW for my taste, if that makes any sense. All of their shows have the same production look, which is hard to explain, and it can get to be overloading if you watch a lot of them.
