Well, I've watched Ringer. And it was interesting enough to watch more. So I am quite happy about. I am not sure whether it has the staying power - what will happen when all the mysteries are played out. And I cannot say I am hooked. I am pretty sure I wouldn't watch if not for Sarah Michelle Gellar, but she is there, and I'll be watching.
I actually don't think I've watched SMG in anything but Buffy before, and so the first moments felt like it is Buffy got lost some place. Of course that was not Buffy but Bridget. When we met Siobhan, I felt no Buffy traces anymore. Will see how SMG will grow in her roles. (I felt in the similar way with Eliza Dushku in Dollhouse - I guess the more I see actors in different roles the less I associate them with one role only).
To sum up, the pilot wasn't brilliant but good enough. Pretty much the way I hoped. Now I am hoping the show will get its footing and stay there. :)
