Oh God. That's just awful! They should have at least included some weapons because that's what drew me into the original billboards. I remember driving to campus and seeing that huge sign with the boys holding their guns and the crazy colors and lighting in the background ... and I was hooked. In this one they look more like victims instead of hunters.
I hear they've gone with head-shots and lame taglines for all their shows. It's sad, really. Like you said, actually showing something about what the show is would be best. 'Cause, yeah, that makes the show look frighteningly bad, if anything.
You know, I can't think of any billboards I've seen for any show! Maybe the just don't have them around here, or I'm blind. I'll keep an eye out, though.
*is sad* Well, at least all the promos will suck and not just the ones for Supernatural. That makes it kind of okay, right? Right? Yeah, I didn't think so either.
My campus is in Detroit so driving to a big city and everything, I saw them a couple of times last fall. You should have seen my reaction when a bus drove by with the boys faces plastered on the side! Yeah, let's just say I would have caused an accident if I wasn't stopped at a red light :P
Well, I hear some of the others are worse. Yeah. SO doesn't make it better. I just hope that when it comes down to TV spots for each show, they'll make them FIT the show. Less green and flashy, more cool and dark.
I would've lost my mind! Thank goodness for red lights, hee. And I love that they got all that advertising! I hope the CW gets their act together and does right by 'em soon. --Say in a month or so the spots will start airing? I think mid August sounds about right.

*shiver* Yeah, those expressions. Eeek. Funny in a "if I don't laugh I'll cry for our poor show" way. *snigger*
