so with all the hype surrounding it. i decided to check it out. plus the fact that there is nothing else on in that timeslot that i watch helped.

it was pretty good. it ended with me really wanting to see more. especially with the felicia going to meet one of the bank robbers(the name escapes me). i really want to know what the f*** happened in there. what made lizzy totally not want to be around jeremy? why is kathryn so infatuated with nick? and what did he do? and many more questions.

plus i like how they are going to see how their lives go from here and not just about what happened in those 52 hours. i think this is going to be a pretty good show.

Even if he goes crazy, I will still call Chris "Superman"

This was as good as I'd hoped. Definitely left me wanting more, and with lots of questions. (in a good way)

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah!!!! Yeah, Felicia going to the prison was a shock... I wasn't expecting that at all, especially with her supposed memory loss.

So few pilots are really good, but I think this one's a winner. I'm really looking forward to next week.

told ya it was good. glad you liked it and it was worth staying up for.

this is going to be a good series. i've always liked tim daly. he had a good series, Eyes, that got the early axe 2 years ago. and we all know how good Scott Wolf, Chi McBride, and Kim Raver are. it's a good cast.

I thought it was kinda cool how they showed bits of the half hour or so before the robbery, and the first week after. Not during. Not what changed them so much.

What I AM concerned about though, is how are they going to make a long-term show out of this? After about a season, will there be any story left to tell? Of course, I had the same concerns about Prison Break, and that's not going so badly.

i had the same thoughts. i don't know about prison break. i thought it sucked and stopped watching it long ago. i did think the same thing about Lost at first and look how that's turning out. show's are doing more of this lately. like they're just shooting for the first season and if it catches, they'll wing it. the new show Jericho springs to mind. Last season it was Reunion (which i liked). i'm sure there are more if i put more thought to it, but that just ain't me.

I'm gonna be lazy and post the same thing I posted on the other .com. lol Sorry I'm so rude, just lazy and tired.

Disappointing second show also, I'll probably watch a few more episodes but I don't think this show will make it. I really think the audience needs to know where this show is heading. Good writing can give you the ending and still make you want to watch how we got there. For example the movies American Beauty and of course Sunset Blvd. It's the journey, and if I don't know what the journey is, or where I'm going it's hard to care. Right now I don't care. Am I turning into an old grump?

OK I changed it a little.
