Shrams, looks like we both share an interest in television shows with a supernatural slant. "Numbers" intrigues me as well. Like I've mentioned earlier, GW would have been the type of show I would want to watch at least once and probably will. There is just something in the promos that annoys me and maybe it's Jennifer Love Hewitt. I feel bad about that because I think she's cute and would be perfect in light comedies but I just keep thinking about how great Patricia Arquette (she just won an emmy for her portrayal of Allison in Medium) is in "Medium". The Allison character is just so real and flawed and natural all at the same time. She's not always dressed great and her hair is sometimes out of place and she's usually in a hurry getting her family together before she goes to work. Love Hewitt's character looks like someone who will always be perfectly coiffed and elegantly dressed with her make-up expertly applied. Now there's nothing wrong with looking your best but I think I feel a deeper connection to Allison.

The promo for the GW pilot also features Wentworth Miller in a guest role and I really don't like him but I will watch the pilot and try to overlook that feeling. Unless the pilot blows me away, I probably won't be sticking around for the next episode. My like or dislike for GW won't make JOA return to the screen but I just don't see how GW will earn lofty ratings. It's just a pale carbon copy of "Medium" with a little "Tru Calling" thrown into the mix.
