I said something like that when watching the show with my dad...he pointed out there are 4400 people returned, and therefore, 4400 stories to tell....although I don't know if I can relate to 4400 people...generally a series hooks people because they can sympathize with a spesifc character/characters. What would Friends have been if they picked a different set of "friends" every few episodes. The only series I think of that did that and was somewhat sucsessful was MTV's Undressed....

I think that this can last as a real show if they focus on the agents and maybe a handful of the Returnees. Maybe each episode can be about a different Returnee and their issues. Like Law & Order or something.

Yeah, like tell one story each episode...


Also, did anyone else wonder why the guy was so mean to his wife on the porch? Like, why after 11 years of not seeing your wife, would you not accept her? Something must have happened, and I hope they delve into it, b/c it has been bothering me.

No... he's just a d*ck. :mad:

He'd mourned the loss of his wife (we hope!), raised a baby on his own for at least a little while, got remarried, had another child, moved on... and all of a sudden his first wife is on the doorstep telling their daughter she's Mommy, when said daughter believed his second wife was Mommy. I can see where he would be conflicted... but that is still no excuse for how he treated her. He should at least have come to her when the returnees were being picked up, and explained the situation.

There's got to be some back-story - maybe their marriage was on the rocks when she was taken? Maybe she'd cheated on him and the guy she cheated with is the baby daddy? That's going to be an interesting story to watch.

I also have a theory that the guy who dated her grandmother, is actually her grandfather.

Oh, and the little girl creeped me out too.

Who saw it?

Definitely feels more like a series now. I like it.

I don't know how long it will last though. The show seems to be focusing on several people each week, like the main characters, but then tell a story about one new 4400. This could get old after a while. But I'm too into sci-fi to let that stop me. :D

i did not want to watch it last night. the first episode creeped me out so i dont know if i want to watch it anymore. i will try next week.
last night, i was busy watching 'ocean's eleven'. i love that movie.

i like it a lot. can't wait to see how it all turns out

ok I watched both episodes now but I am a little confused. Everytime they reshow the first show I miss like 30 mins so I am lost about that.

Can anyone give me a brief recap about the beginning of the show. I get that the people all were taken and came back all at once in Seattle, but do we know why those people were taken and what happened to them? Do we know who did this? Did every person get some super power when they came back? I need them to reshow the first episode again so I can tape it so I can watch it lol.

I wonder if the HS boy will try to save his cousin whos in a coma like he healed that girls hand last night?

They haven't figured out where the Returnees where or who had them. So, you haven't missed anything as of yet. All they know is that they were gone, now they're back, and some have powers. (Probably all)

I agree, I am thinking he was planning to off her or something. Who knows, but he makes me mad. I want them to focus on them. He deserves to be smacked,LOL

I'm so glad that I found a thread for this!

I saw the 1st episode and was instantly hooked (so was my husband)! But unfortunately, I missed the last 2 episodes! Last week, I was on the plane returning from Nashville, and last night, I totally forgot it was coming on, so would anyone care to give me a little recap of the last 2 weeks?

Thanks ever so much!

Yay!!!! I missed last week's epi. I'm not AS into it now as I was in the beginning, but hopefully I will be satisfied with the ending.
