99 Words About … The year’s biggest letdowns

They weren’t 2011’s worst new shows.

COUGHwhitney2brokegirlslastmanstandingCOUGH.

Just the biggest disappointments. Shows that should have been much, much better.

“Person of Interest”: Still worth watching, but you expect more from Jonathan Nolan and J.J. Abrams.

“The Playboy Club”: Hot girls, bunny suits. How did it go so wrong?

“Hell on Wheels”: The transcontinental railroad drama felt like a slow train to nowhere.

“Terra Nova”: Dinosaurs, time travel, untold millions and that’s all we got?

“The Killing”: The waterlogged drama squandered more hours — and goodwill — than the middle episodes of “24” and still couldn’t be bothered to provide a resolution.
