Not at all surprised to find that the interview is already up. *g* Will probably download the episode anyway since I like 'collecting' things in that weird way. Already found the torrent link too. (Yeah, the irritating thing is seeding the show afterwards. But I'm patient like that, being an equal opportunity pirateer and all.)
I normally give shows some time to get on their feet as well, although I am unfairly biased towards a good pilot. If a pilot is great, then I give a show even more time to try to reach its potential. But even before a 'good' pilot, a show's premise has to catch my attention or barring that, the show has to have a star/actor/writer/director/creator that I'm interested in to get me to tune in in the first place. Once Upon a Time, unfortunately, doesn't have any of that. American Horror Story on the other hand, has it in spades, and that show begins airing here on Friday. Yay!
Out of curiosity, what are the 8 news shows that you tried and the 6 that you've stuck with so far? I already know about Once Upon a Time.
As for Terra Nova, I want to see that too! (I don't begrudge you delaying Primeval. Aside fom the dinosaur link, they're fundamentally different shows.) Fox International Asia, which is usually full of so much awesomeness, has been kinda cruel about Terra Nova. They have the regional rights (and I mean exclusive regional rights) to both Terra Nova and The Walking Dead and they've split the two shows among different countries. What that means for me is I get The Walking Dead, but NOT Terra Nova and for other countries, it's the reverse. Fuck. The Walking Dead has been completely brilliant, though, so I'm not really complaining. If forced to choose, I would've gone for The Walking Dead as well.
Anyway, if Once Upon a Time picks up, let me know. I'm more interested in seeing Grimm (which appears to owe a huge debt to Supernatural) so I hope a channel picks it up here. Haven't gone the downloading route yet for any of the new shows, but I'll probably start Season 7 of SPN this weekend. Finally, right? I might even have a Season 6 review up by today. *gasp*
