I theorized I will mainly watch this show because the hotty from 'Disturbia'.
But yeah I have no idea what the hell's going on. Is this show basically around to replace Lost, for all the sci-fi, suspense nerds?

I thought it was good. WAY to early to have a theory though. Ill tune in, but I CANNOT go through another series like LOST where I dont know what is going on. I dont have the time for that. So Ill give it about a season and decide then.

Heroes season 2 sucked, Heroes season 1, 3, and 4 were pretty good.

Hollywood Insider was obviously wrong...after one episode, nobody knows what the event was. HI probably thought that the plane vanishing was the event...not so much.

I don't know... I liked the non-linear bit, as well as really liking a lot of the actors, but that's EXACTLY what I was saying about FlashForward at this time last year. I actually LIKED that show and watched it throughout, but felt that they killed themselves when they took a break mid-season and no one came back.

^Totally agree about FlashForward. I really liked that show but the break killed whatever momentum it built up and killed it... I watched The Event, I thought it was good... will keep watching.

Methinks there is an Alien abduction angle here.

Btw, is it just me or would nobody else's girlfriend/wife let you go on a scuba trip by yourself with a hot ditzy chick who drinks like a fish, while you're back in the hotel room upchucking the breakfast buffet?

Dont forget you saved said girls life. She would certainly feel obligated to give you something in return if given the chance.

I thought it was pretty good.

I'll continue watching.

As for Lost, I honestly lost interest in the series after Season 3. Just lost track and time of it from being so busy during Season 4 and never really got back into it. I watched the last half of the last season though.

Do yourself a favor and go back and watch 4-5, Lost was on fire during those seasons. The Constant is the best TV episode of a show of all time imo.

The actress who played the mother that got killed in episode 1 screwed up on a an early morning LA show and let the words "parallel universe" slip out. If that is what it turns out o be Fringe should sue the shit out of them.
