And personally, if a show can't make a good case for tuning in next week (which BW has NOT) with their pilot...then why do a pilot?
It's the same problem I had with Private Practice. With a season opener, with a pilot...you need to bring your A game. This is a ratings war; what are you doing to win your part of the war? Because shiny special effects are not enough for me personally. I need a character I actually care about. And so far, they haven't really given me one. Probably the closest is Sarah Corvis and she's only a recurring character.
