okay, watched this today finally. (all praise tivo). moving on... i had no idea how much they recasted this show. for the better in my opinion. the main pic was waaaaay off which got me wondering. it took forever just to find the pic to replace it. it's right now by the way. i probably wouldn't have watched it had Keitel and Imperioli not been in this.

now to the episode... it was good. didn't knock my socks off until the very end which was some of the more entertaining stuff this year, but it was slow leading up to it. i'm just hoping this isn't going to be a Jacob's Ladder: The Series. (if you haven't seen Jacob's Ladder, then you need to.. today... go get it, dammit.)... Keitel and Imperioli were perfect. the show did just enough for me to tune in again next week, but until they can really wow me it's going to be a week to week. again, i just hope it doesn't get tired with all the am i here or is it in my mind crap.

It was decent. I love Michael Imperioli, so it was good to see him in something again. Plus, he was perfect for his role. Jason O'Mara played his character well too. I liked him right off the bat. There were some dull spots, and I was a little confused by Maya being okay, since he talked to the kid and changed the future, but yet he still got hit by a car, which didn't make much sense.

But all in all, it was pretty good. I'll watch again next week for sure.

Much better than the leaked pilot, in my opinion. All in all, I thought it was an OK episode -- better than Eleventh Hour at least, which shares the time slot. I'll also watch next week.

what a dissapointment this is. word for word. scene for scene. story for story. its an exact copy of the uk version. even the songs r the same.

cmon even the women policewoman wears the same outfit as the policewoman in the uk version. whats going on? very very dissapointed. i expected it to be like a starsky an hutch type of series. no thought has gone into making this at all. i wont be watching anymore.
