Pilot non-reviews

I'm pretty sure I only watched two pilots this Winter/Spring: Dollhouse and Cupid. I've continued watching Dollhouse and I only watched that first episode of Cupid, and I was too bored to watch it again.

The list of pilots I didn't watch is much longer: Lie to Me, Castle, In the Motherhood, Kings, Better Off Ted, The Unusuals, Southland, Surviving Suburbia, Parks & Recreation, Sit Down, Shut Up (if that's started already),...I think that's all of them.

Basically I've heard that Lie to Me is good, but I'm taking that good to be the same as the way The Mentalist is "good", which is to say "the masses enjoy it". I've heard mediocre things about Castle but it's ratings seem to be plummeting into cancellation territory. I think Kings was pretty much DOA. In the Motherhood and Surviving Suburbia were apparently indescribably awful, which doesn't surprise me. So that basically leaves Better Off Ted, The Unusuals, Southland, Parks & Recreation, and Sit Down, Shut Up for me to evaluate whether or not I need to catch up on after it's been determined whether or not they're canceled.
