When I first heard about this show, I had an image of people in an office printing out all the Michael J Fox memes, turning their heads over their shoulder and shouting, "We've got at least 2 seasons right here!"

Not a single network trailer impressed me. Hell, every network trailer made me want to watch the show less than I did sight unseen.
I'll still check out SHIELD, Brooklyn 99, and The Blacklist, and a couple midseasons (Intelligence, Believe). But I suspect that this time next year, I again won't care if a single new network show is renewed or not. (Caveat: I haven't decided on Hannibal yet for this year.)

Seeing a show like Dracula on NBC pains me. A show dealing with Dracula would be much better suited to AT LEAST basic cable, and ideally a pay channel like HBO, Showtime, or Starz. Let the standard networks stick to forumlaic cop, medical, legal dramas and situation comedies rather than waste valuable and interesting ideas.
