Caught the premiere on Monday, the show is very good so far and has me eager to see where it goes from here.

 

[Darklord Dave]

I wasn't too keen on the premise when I heard it - but I really liked the first 2 episodes. Although she does look REALLY young to be a homicide detective.

Also Sam Neill's character

Spoiler

he was a minimum of 20 years old in 1963, which would make him 68 in 2012. Although Sam is almost that old, the character seems to be younger.

Spoiler

maybe she vanished with the inmates and came back too

 

[Shropt]

Um, wow. That's hot.

I caught the first 2 episodes and thought it was good. It's nice to have a "cop show" where they don't spend half the show in the forensics lab. Hopefully they make the show super twisted like LOST.

I'm kinda getting sick of "cop shows" all together. It's like they can't come up with any better characters.

This. Fringe. Grimm. Castle. The ten million CSIs. SVU. NCIS. Persons of Interest (kinda). Rookie Blue. H50. Unforgettable. Blue Bloods

and those are just the ones I know off the top of my head. . .

Not saying their bad, cause I watch 5 of them.

Its like either the main character is a doctor and its a medical drama, or their a cop and its a cop show.

Thats why LOST will go down in history as the greatest show ever to air. Cause it was fresh.

Can't wait to see the how the River is, even if its from the guy who did those POS PA movies.

Twisted would be okay but not LOST twisted.

I'm there!

Enjoyed it!

Spoiler

Waiting to find out what Lucy's deal is....since she appeared in 1963 also.

Somehow, I knew you'd say this.

 

[Devil_666]

she does look REALLY young to be a homicide detective.

Because she is. Minimum age to join the SFPD is 21 years old. She's 28 in real life so basically she made Homicide Detective in 6 years after her first year as a trainee. lolz.

Spoiler

maybe she vanished with the inmates and came back too

Only problem with that:

Spoiler

The first SFPD female Homicide Detective wasn't hired until 1998.

Yeah yeah I know, it's a TV show. Just throwing out some info about my city. Go 49ers!!!!

Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.

I finally got around to watching this tonight. Last month on a flight from Houston to Portland, they were airing the pilot on the plane. Interesting that there were a number of differences between what I saw then and what aired:

- Rebecca had a cop boyfriend. There was a scene with the two of them swimming in the bay and another scene at their apartment when Doc came to pick up Rebecca for their boat ride to Alcatraz.
- Lucy appeared earlier in the episode. She suggested Rebecca do an Internet search on Jack Sylvane, which is how she first realized he as an inmate.
- The whole scene with Rebecca and her partner's death were not there.
- The scene where Emerson locks Jack up and the scene where he asks Rebecca to join him to help catch the 63s were flipped.
