TV: Week of March 29

Category: TV,Upcoming — velveetahead @ 7:27 pm

This week, I am most excited about Cupid debuting. I actually watched and loved the original when it was made with Jeremy Piven and Paula Marshall a few years ago. I was sad when it went off the air. I had no idea that it was made by Rob Thomas who went on to make Veronica Mars, which I loved. I find it completely bizarre that he’s making the same show again with different actors, but since it is Rob Thomas making it,  I am willing to give it a shot.

Season Finales: Top Gear, Damages, Life on Mars, ER, Eleventh Hour

Pick of the Week

cupid

Cupid
Channel: ABC
Time: 10/9c
Starring: Bobby Cannavale, Rick Gomez, Camille Guaty, Sarah Paulson
Premieres: Tuesday, March 31
Trailer

Synopsis: A guy claims he is the Roman god ,Cupid, who has been sent to New York to bring 100 couples together, but there is a psychiatrist who begs to differ.

My Take: While I miss that Jeremy Piven will not be Cupid, I do really like Sarah Paulson. I am not the biggest fan of Bobby Cannavale, but I am willing to see if he can win me over.

My Take: Vincent D’Onofrio can be over the top, but I still enjoy watching him and the other detectives in the show.
