    New show by J.J Abrams (Lost, Alias) and Jonathon Nolan (Co writer Dark Knight, The Prestige).

    Info herehttp://www.earthsmightiest.com/fansites/jjsplace/news/?a=7652

    I know very little about this and I'm hoping you guys can tell me a bit more. I'm excited about the prospect of a J.J Abrams, Jonathon Nolan double team (Steady on)

    Apologies if there is already a thread, I did search for it.

    Just watched the first episode. Christ it was shit.

    Will stick with it for a few weeks because of the talent involved but really disappointed!

    I watched all eps up till now in the last week week, for some reason I really enjoy it. No idea why, it's not very good.

    It is a bit Batman though. I like that, and there is rude Ben from Lost so can't really complain that much.

    Just watched the first two episodes of this yesterday. Seems alright. Michael Emmerson plays his character a bit too much like the chap in Lost, which is a bit distracting. Not sure what everyone hates about it. I like the concept of it.

    It's ok, gets better about 10 eps in. It's kinda Batman Quantum Leap style.

    Renewed (unsurprisingly, as it rates its tits off).

    I officially love this show now, I think it's great,

    JJ Abrams? It'll go pish after the first 2/3rds of a season and just make shit up, before being cancelled/ending without making sense or resolving storylines then.

    That's right, Alias/Lost. We're looking at you.

    I'm a grumpy bastard.

    Lost should be a black mark on his CV. Awful program.

    JJ's input on this has gone no further than Bad Robot producing. And it's all the better for it :)

    Yeah, not really that kind of show and as above JJ had fuck all to do with it. Like he does with most TV shows that have his name attached.

    Yeah, it's pretty good. I doubt whether it'll blow you away but its very watchable.

    Great season - best new show imo. Loved it and looked forward to it every week.

    Some nice arcs throughout the season and the big moment at the end of the last ep has left me hanging for next season.

    It's gone all Nuromanceron us I hope

    Well played Nolan.

    After the truly awful first episode does it really pick up then?

    I found it OK to start off with. Then after a few episodes I started to agree with peopel that it wasn't all that exciting.
    Another few episodes later and it picked up a lot.

    I liked it from day one, so perhaps don't listen to me.

    Awesomesauce.

    Been looking forward to this, needed a new show to watch too with Mad Men, Walking Dead and Fringe all fucking off at the same time.

    One last question - do Channel 5 have a HD channel?

    Yes. On Sky, at least. 171, I think.

    It is what it is, and it does what it does very well.
    I doubt anyone's going to walk away thinking they've just seen television redefined, but speaking personally I'm always really pleased when I have a new episode to watch.

    Also Enrico Colantoni pops up in it occasionally, and I love that guy.

    Me and Mrs USW have been watching this, managed to catch up and watch episode 4 last night.

    It is very good. Slick, stylish and very good acting all round - the only negative point that we have come up with is that maybe it is lacking a sense of humour (something that seems to run in the Nolan family).

    Loved the last scene of episode 4 too :

    Hmmmm, it would appear im the only one here watching this......

    Very impressed with last weeks episode, after a slow start it is definitely picking up.

    The weekly stories are improving and the "bigger picture" story seems to be developing nicely.

    The Judge saying "i dont know if i'll be able to help you" when people find out what Finch and Reese are doing was very foreboding

    So, a slow start, but definitely gathering pace and improving every week.

    Also, Jesus is easily one of the best actors on TV.
