Jack and Bobby
 
I like it a lot. I thought Jack was gonna be the president until the very end.

I'm confused by something though. In the future does Bobby take the hot girl Jack is talking to right now in high school and marry her? And does Jack die or did I just hear something wrong? This was in the part that the future Mrs. McCallister was talking.

Yep, I'm pretty sure the first Lady is the girl Jack is trying to date in present day. And Jack did die, b/c the first Lady said Bobby called her after Jack's death about running his campaign for congress ( so maybe she married to him too?). But i really liked the show as well, but I had a feeling it was bobby who was president

I'll have to watch it...I was unsure of whether it would be worth my time or not.

does their cousin kill a girl on a golf course?

I really liked it too - I'm glad I checked it out. I'm excited now for the Mountain to start - the two new WB shows I have a feeling are both going to be really good!

I noticed during the middle of the episode that they didn't really say who the pres was going to be. I don't think we're supposed to know. I think its Bobby though, something about catching his breath before he makes a speech because of his asthma.

If the next episode is as good as this one, this show will be my official sunday show.

right at the end they said it was Bobby, that he decided after Jack died to run for congress and then eventually president.

Me too, and I like the two guys (Wm. shattner and _______) who could make the replacement for The Practice very good.

You might take a look at Growing Up Gotti (what a family) Mon. on A&E, and "Dog the Bounty" two episodes tonight on A&E.

I may need a third VCR, since the Poker Finals are tonight too.

They included a copy of the first episode in my Entertainment Weekly a couple of weeks ago. The show is REALLY good.

They confirmed through the interview with the Former First Lady that Bobby became president. I saw the episode twice, so the second time around I was able to catch more of the clues. I did catch two before: the mention of Bobby being a "saxophone guy" and being good with women (they said he wasn't necessarily a ladies' man, but he understood them). The writers revealed it because they didn't want to keep the gimmick going. I think the writing is strong enough, they don't need it. The focus is moreso on the development of the president. It's a really interesting premise for a show.

GREAT show!
 
Just saw Jack & Bobby for the first time today on Easy View and it's a GREAT new show! it's very intriguing to know of the early life of a president and i'm extremely curious as to courtney's role in the brother's lives and also as to how Jack dies...Overall, 2 thumbs up!

I like this show too. My husband made me watch it b/c alot of the scenes were filmed where he works. He works at a county court house in San Marcos, Tx and of course they took the Texas flag down but you can see the court house in he background of the opening when Jack is running. I keep looking for my husband's car! He said that if the show keeps running, the county will get some more $$. I have a vested interest in this show. Great something else for Sunday night, quickly becoming my favorite tv night!!! Thank goodness for DVR!

Rudey 09-20-2004 08:40 PM

I missed the second show :*(

Is this on repeat?
