January's TV shows

Full Series
Caprica, Series 1 (8/10)
While it is sad that the show was canceled so soon, I believe that this is exactly what guaranteed such a packed and well-rounded storyline. Definitely worth watching. I do recommend watching at least some BSG first, though, because that will give the finale a lot more depth and meaning.

Highlander, Methos Episodes
In retrospect, some aspects of the show are pretty ridiculous, and I personally think Duncan can be really annoying. But Methos is just as awesome as he ever was. Still one of the greatest tv show characters ever. &hearts

Fringe, Series 1
The first season of Fringe felt a lot more structured and well thought through the second time around. Maybe Fringe just works better with all episodes watched back to back.

Warehouse 13, Series 1 (6.5/10)
I'm watching this show slightly out of order. It is one of my feel-good shows. Not always entirely logical or thought through, but fun and entertaining, without too much drama. And that is exactly what I love about it.

Fringe, Series 2
I still feel that the 2nd season of Fringe is a little unbalanced. I like the overall storyline, but there are too many stand-alone episodes that don't drive the mythology forward

Pilots
The Cape (6/10)
The show uses quite a few cliches but it is still entertaining. And it has Summer Glau, which is always a good thing.

Being Human US (4/10)
And another example of: Why make a US remake of a perfectly fine UK show? The US version of Being Human adds nothing new or valuable to the story - aside from maybe George's Josh's sister - but lacks the charm of the original. Mark Pellegrino really is the only reason to watch this show.
