Exorcist was aiight. The ending of that first episode really saved it for me. I'll probably drop that one before long :/

 

Son of Zorn: see thread.

 

I caught pieces of This Is Us and that's dripping with feels and not really for me. I did like the twist ending of that first episode tho.

 

Riverdale is on my list, but it hasn't even come out yet, has it?

This is us: The new parenthood. They have been pushing twists in the first 2 eps tho. Can they sustain that?

 

Riverdale has not, i pulled the big list of new fall releases for it. My bosses relative is the executive producer I found out last week. I promptly yelled at him for 20 minutes for never telling me this before now.

 

Training day? Who the fuck knows.
