Star-Crossed

The pilot was wonderful and both my teenager and I are really enjoying the show so far and find ourselves counting the days until Monday! We, of course, TIVo the episodes so we can watch our favorite parts again. The CW is my go-to network for entertainment. True, the actors portraying teens are quite a bit older, but I'm sure when they were casting the show, they chose the BEST actors rather than those who "looked" the part. I, for one, applaud the decision and look forward to many happy hours of viewing...once Grayson is out of the picture! 😜. Can't wait to see Teri's character develop. Drake is another one that I think will surprise me. Quite a few twists and turns to the plot that we're enjoying. Kinda surprised to read reviews that seem to think the show is predictable. So far, I don't think so.

This show is probably one of the best sci-fi fantasy shows on television. But as for the nit pickers ... I grew up in the 80s which means I grew up watching 70s and 80s TV shows corny doesn't even begin to describe most of the television fantasy shows back then but I loved them, they were entertainment and sometimes they had a really good story line. In other words I just enjoyed them actually I didn't spend time trying to tear apart the actors/actresses if I didn't like a show I didn't watch them plain and simple!... Considering that reality TV shows are taking over the air waves these days having a good fiction story like this to play out on our TV screens is a whole lot better than having to deal with some of the cheap nonsense that most reality TV shows are about. I just so happened up on this wonderful show on hulu and was instantly hooked and oh by the way I am in the 30 something crowd so as for the reviewer who called people my age "old" LOL yea I may be old age wise but I know a good show when I see one and this is a good show! So relax its just a good fiction story and as for the acting I have to say they have some really good actors on the set ... Keep up the good work Star-Cross Crew!!!

After watching the premier of Star Crossed I don't think I will watch it again. I thing the central problem with interest in the show is the same as in Beauty and the Beast. In that show the "Beast" is a handsome normal looking guy with a cool looking scar. In this show the aliens that are victims of prejudice look like good looking white kids with tattoos. C'mon, can't they give them antennas, or forehead ridges, or especially large heads. Something to make them look like aliens. A normal person could take a marker and draw a fake tattoo and look like them. How about green aliens, or blue. That would play up the racial angle they are trying so hard for. Would we accept a green person? This show remakes the civil rights era issue of racial integration in schools, and drains it of any relevance, so that is a parable of white hipsters trying to gain acceptance from intolerant humans. 2/10

I'm not too into writing reviews for shows but when I see negative reviews on a show that is worth more than that, I feel it's my duty to write a positive one. I thought the pilot to be extremely exuberant and enticing. I love the chemistry between the two lead characters and find the story to be familiar in some ways but at the same time, I sincerely see it as a breath of fresh air. I think it is more original than many scifi-oriented shows out at the moment and I think people shouldn't judge it so harshly. I think this show has something for everyone and all should give it a watch. I hope it does well as I look forward to seeing more!

Star-crossed provided an a very good introduction to the main plot and whats at state the world. It stars Aimee Teegarden from Friday Night lights and Matt Lanter who as leads hold there own.

The rest of the cast is also great. While we are introduced to a lot characters you can tell that we have barely began to see their back story which influences us to watch more of it. As a viewer I cant wait until the next episode to be shown this promises to be a strong show.

I found the story simple and I found it really enjoyable to watch. I would really recommend this show and suggest this is one of better shows that the CW have made. So keep watching it.
