If you've ever seen 1 season of Supernatural, you can stop watching it. Its ridiculous in how repetitive it is.

I'm up to date with it actually. All 8 seasons :T I wish they could recreate what made the first seasons good by using different plotlines but I agree it's saturated with repetitiveness.

True blood is decent unless you've read the books, then its horrendous.

I'm watching Heroes again, I never got past the first season because they changed the writers or something for the second and it was blatant how bad it got.

Yeah Heroes gets better if you watch it backwards :T

Got distracted with rewatching Firefly.. and then Serenity. Need to get back to AHS: Asylum.

Have two episodes of Defiance to catch up on, but I'm not liking it as much as I hoped. Sci Fi is going extinct.

Due to the early season episodes having considerably good plots, it bought them some slack and much earned respect to the point where you can tolerate the repetitiveness as being just an inevitable ; as opposed to lazy writing or lack of passion. There's only so much they can do forever.

As for Defiance, it's awful. Poor sets, CGI,; worse dialog and acting. Ridiculous stereotypes and completely overshadowed by too much BSG influence simply for luring in viewers.

Defiance is the quintessential example of the 'Sy Fy' network. As soon as they changed the name to be more hip, it was all down hill.

what are you talking about? Supernatural was very average in the beginning with their random monster of the week plots. It didn't started to get good until they got into long multy-season archs and writing up their own demonic lore, rather than rehashing on oh-so-common and ultra redone themes like wendigos and vamps.

I guess we disagree. I rather enjoy short stories in lieu of drawn-out impossibility archs. With the monster of the week plots, there is at least a small possibility they could survive each episode. By season 4, there's just no way. I guess what I'm saying is.. they hunt and fight monsters. When they are fighting the King of Hell, Lucifer, and the Leviathans, it was a little much. Still watching it though.

The thing that turns me off the most (besides what you just mentioned) I think is that the main characters never seem to evolve or grow in any major respect. All of this crazy shit happens to them, but their characters aren't believable enough for me. I'm sad to say, I don't 'worry' about the characters like I do with other shows. It just feels meh.

Watched the first two episodes of 'Under the Dome'. I like it!

Watched the pilot of 'Bates Motel'. It was .. eh. Will have to watch some more.
