part of me is super hooked and will be an obsessed fan, a la Lost and 24 fans.

a bigger part of me wants to hate it because its kinda cliche and the acting is a little corny. and a little creepy - all but one person blacks out for over 2 minutes? and all this chaos, but cell phones work?

i really wish i knew what April 29, 2010 was. aside from it being the first day of spring sweeps, according to Twitter.

p.s. John Cho and Seth McFarlane FTW. but fail on random kangaroo.

I'm kinda on the same page as you. I tuned in and part of me wanted to not like it because I'd seen way too many ads - way too much hype for this ahead of time. And I don't watch that much television. Figured I'd watch this episode, think it was supercheesy and be done. But, as the first episode developed and the female FBI agent (can't remeber her name) was watching the video tapes that was when I got sucked in. So, I'll watch it again next week and see what happens.

I didnt really see the hype, but USAToday gave it a good review, so I watched it. I THOUGHT that was Seth McFarlane (Stewart Gilligan Griffin??!! lol). I really really liked it. And yes huge FAIL on the random kangaroo TWICE in the same episode.


but how did Harold pull Gabby Union??!! lol

Yeah, this is easily another Lost and I hope they don't take years telling this story.

You got all the elements.

People have something mysterious happen

They wake up all of a sudden to catastrophe

Strangers interlinked by a common mysterios bond.

All we need now is a bunker and a button.

Yea I agree...I really interested and I hope the writers dont screw it up for me because they feel like dragging it out for 6 seasons..and although I LOVE LOST, its a good thing its over next year because I dont think I could take it anymore!

Add in some random numbers and it sounds like a real match! (I didn't watch FF, so I can only assume based on what's been posted here. But the random kangaroo sounds too similar to LOST's random polar bear.)

4 8 15 16 23 42

So a few of my friends and I were talking about FF, and we all thought it looked real promising (although none of us watched the premiere, probably because we were out to dinner when it came on..lol) But someone brought up an interesting question. Just based on the previews and such, don't you think FF would have been better as a movie?

I mean, at least you'd get the high intensity, "thriller" type feeling, instead of having it drag out for 50 million seasons.

I agree with everything said about the correlation with LOST. They even had a billboard up for Oceanic Airlines.

It was ok, I'll watch again.
