Warehouse 13 (2009)
Ghostbusters w/o the humor, X-Files w/o the cleverness
Just watched the pilot episode and won't probably bother with any more. The writers seem to have grabbed a bunch of scenes and ideas from, among others, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Ghostbusters, and The X-Files, thrown them into a bag and shaken them up. The result was less than satisfying.
The two central characters, McClintock and Kelly, were likable, but the third, Artie "Nielson" was a caricature. I think he was supposed to be funny, but just came across as bumbling, and certainly not anyone who would be trusted by a super-secret Government organization. The mysterious Mrs. Frederic could possibly be interesting, but will probably just be kept in the background like "cigarette man" in the X-Files.
