Who's gonna tune into Guillermo Del Toro's comic turned TV show?

My DVR is set to record.

Hope it's good!

Recording tonight and watching it tomorrow with the wife.
Also hope it's good (and from the one line reviews I've seen, it should be Smiley)

It was ... okay.

Was not up to par with other FX shows and I think that is what has me down the most. I really expected this to rock me. FX doing horror? Oh hell yeah! But other than the word "shit", a guy with a head injury  Wink and a very stupid street punk telling someone to perform oral on him, this seemed like a show on Network. I mean it had the same acting, writing and pacing that I expect from ABC, but not for FX.

Still around for a few as it did have its moments like
putting new meaning to the term "heartworm"  Grin
so I'm not giving up yet.

I enjoyed it, and I think the show laid the foundation for a show that will evolve into something pretty interesting if they do it right.

CDC agents and pawnshop owner = vampire hunters....i like it!
