OK so the Pilot episode sucked. None of the characters were personable and the acting was wooden and cold. The story didn't seem to flow well or make much sense. That being said, it seems to get slightly better as the season progresses. My problem though is that I don't think I care about this show. It's kinda blah. The storyline is not engaging enough and there's no intensity to this remarkably unremarkable mystery/thriller.Sarah Michelle Gellar gives one of the worst performances of her lifetime. She is better then this and it doesn't showcase her true talent. Honestly, I'm surprised that they kept this show going for as long as they did. There are much better shows out there. Do yourself a favour and give this one a miss.
... View MoreIs it because I am a Buffy lover? I don't think so because my mom LOVES ringer too!!! We watched it on NETFLIX where we watch most of our shows. CW Times are changing............TV is too complicated Netflix is not..........HEART OF DIXIE is AWFUL..................Please bring RINGER BACK!!!!!!!!!! I will be waiting for season 2.....It may not of went well on TV yet. I hardly watch TV because of shows like Heart of Dixie.......UGH and I am from the South. I have not watched secret circle yet on Netflix because I may like it also........... I;VE ALWAYS LIKE Sarah Michelle Gellar!!!! She is a great actress!! I am waiting to see what happens next in Ringer. Do Andrew and Bridgett get back together? What happens to Siobhan and Henrey? Is it a happily ever after? Ringer can be the NEXT soap for my age. My mother and I never liked SOAPS until WE saw RINGER!!!!
... View MoreThere were a lot of expectations for the pilot of Ringer as this was Sarah Michelle Gellar's TV comeback after a few years absence on the CW Network. I followed the commercial promos and interviews on what viewers could expect from Ringer and was hooked on the mystery surrounding twins Bridget Kelly and Siobhan Martin. While the initial opening scenes started a bit slow, I was not disappointed in the caliber of actors signed onto this series and SMG's flawless portrayal of TWO main characters. I was blown away by the authentic way Gellar portrayed Bridget as a drug addict, and on the flip-side, Siobhan as a wealthy socialite. The pilot contains a lot of twists and turns to the story that might at first seem confusing, but are unraveled in subsequent episodes during the season. I enjoy this type of TV writing that makes me as the viewer think about what might happen the following week. Reminded me a lot of how the writers of LOST would leave you guessing. If you are a fan of Sarah Michelle Gellar, this series is a must watch as it not only highlights the ability of Gellar to move beyond her role as "Buffy," but shows viewers the depth of her acting abilities. Give Ringer a chance, you won't be disappointed if you stick with the story!
... View MoreI really hope they don't cancel this show!! I know that there is word that they already have, but i hope they reconsider. This is a great show! It keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time, and just when you think you can predict what will happen next...the plot thickens. I also really like SMG work...and it was refreshing to see her again in such a diverse role..she does the two sisters great..total personality change each time, excellent acting. CW must stop broadcasting good shows and then taking them away, they are starting to develop a reputation for being inconsistent, and a bad judge of good shows!
