Has anyone seen the pilot? NBC's got it on their website, and Hulu does as well. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and the show has some serious power backing it. It was created by Eric Kripke (Supernatural FTW! ), and Jon Favreau (who directed the pilot) and JJ Abrams are executive producers. If that wasn't enough, Gustavo Fring himself (Giancarlo Esposito) is one of the stars. It premieres September 17th, but here's the pilot.

Oh boy another post disaster show lol

 

[averone]

Thank you, will check it out

Streamed the first episode thanks to NBC, and it was 'decent' but not sure about it long term.

 

[DarthIndy]

It wasn't bad. My only problem is that these high concept shows quickly devolve into standard melodrama and teenage romance crap (Terra Nova, Falling Skies). The unusual setting is eventually irrelevant, and could be taking place anywhere, anytime.

 

[The Ween]

This starts tonight for anyone who wants to see it.

I might give it a go since Hawaii 5-O is still in repeats. I'm probably not going to like it simply because of all the kids in it, like DarthIndy says.

 

[Michael Crawford]

I'm going to give it a watch. My only problem so far is that the action sequences appear too much like the other two aforementioned disasters, Terra Nova and Falling Skies. I'll give it a shot tonight though, and see if I can hang in there for a week or two.

No mas Network TV Dramas.

 

[The Josh]

If its like falling skies this show will be really good.

 

[The Ween]

It wasn't bad, but I just hope it isn't another "The Event".

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

It wasn't bad, but I just hope it isn't another "The Event".

What you talkin' about...The Event was amazing.

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

What you talkin' about...The Event was amazing.

Agreed, I liked "The Event" as well as "FlashForward."

 

[The Josh]

Nice start. Nothing amazing but I think I like where this is headed.

 

[The Ween]

What you talkin' about...The Event was amazing.

Agreed, I liked "The Event" as well as "FlashForward."

I didn't care for the Event after about the 5th show. Just didn't seem like it was going anywhere.

I liked FlashForward though. Just didn't last long enough before the plug was pulled.

 

[Sidewinder]

If this resembles The Event or Flashforward it will probably end up with the same fate.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Fun swashbuckling show. Hope it keeps to that instead of taking itself to seriously.

 

[The Ween]

So......is anyone still watching this? I only watched the pilot but intend on catching up online if you all think it's worth while.

 

[ProgMatinee]

I like it a lot. Fun action. Nothing too sophisticated. Last episode has you on edge to see who dies( per the preview),

 

[Sidewinder]

I'm watching it and I think it's pretty good for what it is. Does remind me a lot of LOST with the flashbacks.

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

I'm still watching and I like it. Miles backstory brings an interesting plot twist.
