In a strange way a kinda compared it to last years Rubicon, but frankly, I realise these shows have nothing in common (or do they?? hmmm).<br /><br />I will just keep my fingers crossed that this will be this summer hit show...TJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-26864499522284723912011-07-16T11:53:24.133-04:002011-07-16T11:53:24.133-04:00I liked it too, and I hope it doesn't turn int...I liked it too, and I hope it doesn't turn into a procedural. Though it doesn't look like it, what with the Red Flag organization already mentioned and the short season.<br /><br />One thing bothered me: when I was about 3 years old, I went once to my grandmother's house, which hadn't benn babyproofed yet, and drank bleach. I can assure you that I didn't die. There was plenty of time to go to the hospital and have a stomach pump. (note: 1 week later I drank furniture polisher. I was a terrible son. The hospital staff were eventually on a first name basis with my mother.)<br /><br />One thing I liked was that no one seems to be *too* powerful, so ther'll be no Peter Petrellis "forgeting" powers, apparently. And the powers also have side effects, making the Alphas use them more wisely. I wonder what's the side effect to Mina.Gus Brunettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15554920460249324531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-53673885532403921322011-07-14T08:11:55.722-04:002011-07-14T08:11:55.722-04:00After all the positive responses, the hubby and I ...After all the positive responses, the hubby and I decided to give this one a try, too. It was definitely engaging, and the team dynamic was pretty solid. I just hope they tone down the "everyone talks over each other" thing. I really hate that.<br /><br />I really liked Callum Keith Rennie and David Straithairn. They had a very nice dynamic. I wonder if Rennie will stay on as a recurring part of the show. I just read that he got added to the cast of NBC's <i>The Firm</i>.Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-39549619865898537082011-07-14T05:15:32.111-04:002011-07-14T05:15:32.111-04:00Enjoyed this.

Looking forward to next week.Paul Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02927027468227544676noreply@blogger.com
