NBC FALL 2011-12 SCHEDULE

&*!@$, I can't believe they canceled Outsourced. That show was awesome!
I really hope this is sarcasm.

No, not at all. It had a diverse group of characters and each was interesting in their own way, and it had a pretty decent amount of humor without being one-note. What's not to like?

I admit I only watched the first two episodes, but I just found the whole thing insulting. It wasn't funny. It wasn't smart. The characters were annoying.

Lindley, I'm disappointed Outsourced got cancelled too :(

RoJoHen, like a lot of shows it was rocky at first, and considering the plot of the show I almost think it was meant to be that way. A new 'American' manager in India wouldn't adapt right away, and it would be awkward between the parties. Not everyone's cup of tea to watch, I understand. Towards mid-point of the season they really started to gel and the personality of both the 'location' and the team-members came more to the fore. They had some great comedy moments, and not all from the awkwardness of culture-shock. It's a shame they moved it to 10:30 about the time the story really picked up, it really wasn't a 10:30 kind of show honestly and was a better match following The Office than 30 Rock. The ratings showed that too.
 
It may have helped that I didn't start with the pilot. I only went back to see it from the start via OnDemand after catching some later episodes.
 
I might sample The Playboy Club. And Grimm doesn't look like a winner, but I'll sample that too. I'm glad that there isn't much here that interests me. I'd like to watch less TV and this helps.

damn shame about outsourced got cancelled I liked that show damn.:scream::scream:
 
A longer and better trailer for Grimm. It spoils the heck out of what I assume is the first episode, btw.

Silas Weir Mitchell as the wolfman guy really helps this show. The good looking cop (who looks like Zachary Quinto in this trailer :D) is just the befuddled straight man. What will really make this show work is if the supernatural critters are played by an array of great character actors, if only for one episode. They're going to be the real stars of the show.
