Brigid's casting is interesting. They've been teasing something happening to one of the wives on AW, and now I'm wondering if it's Pamela since the show is still filming.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking that that was worrisome from an AW perspective. Then again I don't know enough about the filming of these pilots and when they'll be premiered to say if it collides with AW. Could Brannagh do both?
ReplyDeleteAnother Pan Am like venture. I think ABC will be trying these kind of pilots until one sticks and the can cash in on the Downt-Mad Men madness. Nothing wrong with that if it's actually a good show. And I guess Shonda's pedegree in this case can only be helpful.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that the story sounds very "Meh" to me and personally I don't really trust Shonda all that much.
But the casting is interesting
Considering that Army Wives films in South Carolina, I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteAh. No. I see your point. I had only considered timing not distance.
ReplyDeleteI agree on the casting. Have to say I didn't take to that doctors in the jungle show Shonda did.
ReplyDeleteI personally think Shonda is incredibly overated.
ReplyDeleteShe hit gold with Grey's but everything else she's done hasn't lived up to that.
Also to be honest even Grey's is a hit and miss on occasion...
She can set up good characters, I will give her that, but I find she's not very capable in pulling through with her storytelling, in the long run, which is why I don't really trust her.
