I will not judge a show by its first episode. I will not judge a show by its first episode. I will not judge a show by its first episode. I may judge this show by its first episode? If you haven't heard anything about Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Check out the trailer below.
Interesting premise, am I right? I'm not really sure how many seasons can be sustained and I'm also not sure how many episodes of random singing I can take. I watched the first episode and I'm intrigued and slightly disappointed. First off, the show "begins" in New York City when it's filmed in LA and no attempt is made to hide the orange buses that exist all throughout LA but not in NYC. I'm also disappointed in how they portray mental illness, in the first episode at least. I don't want to say more without spoiling it but if clarification isn't made regarding the actions of the protagonist then I may begin to strongly dislike this show.
Despite all of that, I'll stay tuned because I want to support CW as they created a show I love, Jane the Virgin, but, again, I'm not sure how long this is going to last. Is she going to spend 1 or 2 seasons trying to get with Josh only to fall in love with his handsome friend? Are we going to see more stories surrounding the supporting cast? I mean I guess we have to if they want this show to continue for a few more seasons.
Honestly, I'm on the fence. It seems to be funny and fairly dark, which I like, but I don't know how this show is going to continge moving forward. The only thing I can do is keep on watching and see for myself. Watched the first episode? Comment below and let me know what you thought.

I don't know.... Like the premise but I'm not too much of a fan of musicals so I don't think I can stand the show. Besides, the story is far easy to guess and I don't think there are too many interesting characters.
I find it interesting that there are others out there that like singing television :)
I really hope the singing is for the whole show and not just the pilot, because I need something to tide me over until more Galavant comes out!
Any idea if the intention is to just give it X amount of seasons instead of milking it to the point where it doesn't make any more sense?
Seems like an interesting show. At some point they will have to deviate somehow from the 'show name' if they want to keep it fresh. We'll see what happens.
