Tin Man

most tv sucks these days, but there are some shining examples of good writing, acting, camera work, etc... we call those Deadwood and Arrested Development. Family Guy sucks ass, though...

Moderators: Zero, John Madden, Bob Ross, General Zod, Richard Simmons, Batman

Tin Man

Post by Ran »

Did anyone watch this on the Sci Fi channel? It is some sort of sci-fi show based off Wizard of Oz characters. I caught parts of it, but I missed the begining, where I believe most of the plot was explained. They are showing all 3 episodes this weekend. Just trying to figure out if I should take the time to record/watch it.

You said "on the Sci Fi channel."

You answered your own question. That channel airs only reruns and horseshit.

It's been a loooong time since anything on that channel has interested me in the least. Probably since MST3K went off the air. The Wizard of Oz thing sounded kind of interesting. Well, and the chicks that played the Wicked Witch and the Dorothy "characters" were hot.

Ugh. I made the mistake of watching some of this last night. The writing was atrocious. Everyone was sleepwalking through their performances, or trying to start a pig farm with all the ham. Offender #1. Alan Cummings. Offender #2. Whoever was playing the Wicked Witch.

Zooey Deschanel is a damn cutie, but that ain't enough to watch this drivel. Go back and be satisfied with her singing in the shower in Elf.

I finally watched this mini-series and thought it was decent. Yeah the acting was atrocious at points. All-in-all I would give it 2.5/5.
