Alcatraz on Fox

[sifu74]

They are like four episodes in and most of you want the whole plot to the series already laid out. You do know this is JJ Abrams right?

Interesting, and mildly violent at times, episode tonight.

 

[Matt S]

Tonight's was well acted, but still not overly excited for the story. Just not sure I care about the 'who took them and why' aspect? I will watch this whole season, then see if it comes back

 

[Darth Snoopy]

After last night's episode, I'm definitely sticking around to the end.

 

[Shadowscythe85]

I think the series is progressing at a pretty good pace. We got the what happened to the guard, which was different than what we've heard so far. Wonder who "they" are and if they were the ones who dispatched the guard to find Madsen?

I'm worried though right now with Fox and the short seasoned Monday shows. Terra Nova, Alcatraz and Touch are all on Monday - wonder if they are just seeing which ones they want to pick up to move to different days.

 

[Batty]

Another really good episode tonight. I like seeing the mythology of the show unfold with the arrival of a new "63" every week.

I liked last night's episode. McKee was really creepy and I loved seeing Detective Madsen get physical with him and tackle his arse in the end!

the warden is such a prick

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

the warden is such a prick

A rather unlikable fellow. The word smarmy comes to mind.

 

[Batty]

Well, it's on the bubble, so it doesn't look good that it'll be around for a second season. I don't know how Fox expected it to do well going up against The Voice, The Bachelor, and Two and a Half Men.

[Darth Snoopy]

I really hate Fox.

 

[Batty]

What's worse is that is shows Fringe as a likely cancellation.

 

[The Ween]

I barely watched last week's show and I didn't watch last night's at all. I don't think I want to wait till the 63rd show to get any answers, IF we ever do.

 

[Batty]

The 63 stands for 1963.

It doesn't look like it's going to matter now anyway.

But with all the prisoners left and the guards, it could go on for some time.

It probably would make in on another network.

I could see the warden play Penguin in a new Batman franchise

It would be great if SYFy picked up both Alcatraz and Fringe because Fox sucks worse than a Hoover vacuum cleaner.
