Yeah, it's starting to get that stretched out feel too, like 24 did,
still this last episode was the first time I saw any humor in it, I did
enjoy that part.
The suspending of disbelief is get much more difficult.

This ^^^^^

Just like with 24, moles (cult members) EVERYWHERE. And how long ago where these cult members 'planted'? Puh-leeeeeze!

I gotta admit though, Bacon's character had me cracking up when the bad guys had him tied up in the house.

The premise of this show is frightening, but when they showed the psychopaths influencing the young child with a mouse and a closed jar, I felt enough was enough. And besides the show is only about 25 minutes while the commercials consume the rest of the time DVR is your friend). If I want real life horror I'll simply watch the Zombie followers in Wash. D.C.

Whew! Glad I cut my losses after 3 episodes. Does that mean I'm smarter at catching bad shows? ;D

Well, I've been smart, but usually theres a 3 letter word after that starts with "A" and ends with "S" and is Biblically the word usually given to a small beast of burden.

Too bad you guys don't like it. I have been watching it and it is among my favs. I like shows that go on and on, like 24, as it reminds me of a big book with a continuing story.

To each their own.

Possible spoiler alert!




How about the scene in the last ep where the mother of the kidnapped boy is locked in the 'cage' with one of the bad guys. The bad guy has the only key to get out. The bad guy leaves the key laying on a chair and the mother grabs the key and opens the cage door with the bad guy several steps behind her in hot pursuit. All she had to do was to close the cage door as she passed through it and the bad guy would have been locked in. Or what about all those guns hanging on the walls inside the cage? Why didn't she just grab one of those?    ::)

Or how about...  Never mind, I could go on and on.

Well, I don't watch shows to pick them apart. I watch them for the enjoyment. That reminds me of a guy at work here. We were talking about the movie Matrix. He said he wouldn't watch it. We asked him why and he said that it was all BS, that it wasn't real and couldn't happen. We were like, 'yeah, so what, it's a movie'. When you get down to it, what movie or tv show could you not pick apart. If that was my job to do that would be one thing, but it isn't. I just want to relax and enjoy watching the shows.

With some shows it's impossible to suspend disbelief.

His last name wasn't "Smith", was it?  As in "Agent Smith"?    ;D
