End of The Year TV Meme:

Which TV shows did you start watching in 2013?
Broadchurch, Dancing on the Edge, Marvel's Avengers Assemble

Which TV shows did you let go of in 2011?
Bones, Grimm, Beauty and the Beast, The Americans

Which TV shows did you mean to get into but didn't in 2013? Why?
Scandal

Everyone talked it up. It was starring a powerful woman and created by Shonda Rimes but...it was Shonda Rimes. I love that she's successful but some of her stuff is too soap for me. I was expecting The West Wing and it was more like 24 meets Dexter...it was the Dexter part that really made me drop it.

Also, Sleepy Hollow.

Which TV shows do you intend on checking out in 2013?
Black Sails, Broad City, Star Wars: Rebels, Crossbones, About a Boy

Which TV show do you think you might let go of in 2014 unless things significantly improve?
I think I let go of all the ones I was meh about. I was really upset at the start of the season with Castle but they've won me back.

Which TV show impressed you least in 2013?
Dads and Hostages

Which TV shows do you think you'll never let go of no matter how crappy they get?
My late night programming until I run out of DVR time, Agents of SHIELD and Arrow
