I'll be checking this show out for sure, along with Deception, Do No Harm, Continuum, The Americans, and 1600 Penn. I'm sure most of them won't survive, but what the hell.

Think I'll watch the pilot for this show

 

[Sixteenvolt420]

Just wanted to remind anybody planning on watching, the season premier is tonight on Fox at 9pm.

 

[Sixteenvolt420]

That was a pretty badass season opener.

 

[digitalbabe]

In DVR, can't wait to check it out!

 

[Sirjump]

Ah going to watch it tonight =)

 

[jbsolo]

I'm watching this next week when there are two episodes in the recorder...

 

[apsmith21]

Just watched this on Hulu last night and it was pretty bad ass.

I'm intrigued.

 

[FanOfGaming]

WOW... thought the pilot was really good. I'm sticking with this show

Spoiler

Ironic that the girl from Taken was kidnapped again

 

[jbsolo]

just saw the first two episodes tonight! very well done...very good thriller!

 

[Sixteenvolt420]

Yeah jb, it is definitely a very good thriller.

This is an amazing example of what you can do with a little creativity. No need for big budgets, just bring in a well established name (Bacon) and play it safe (starting as a 14 episode only series) and if people like it, keep going. My main concern is that they they will strectch it out like The Killing, which shouldve lasted only 1 season.

The Following [USA]

From IMDB: A brilliant and charismatic, yet psychotic serial killer communicates with other active serial killers and activates a cult of believers following his every command.​

Love it! Has a Silence of the Lambs feel to it, I'm sure that's where it draws inspiration from. Intrigued to see where this goes. Blu release, day 1 purchase

What's wrong with the other thread you created for it here?: https://www.hidefninja.com/community/threads/27898/

 

[Sixteenvolt420]

Heh heh. Yeah, it's tough to see in the sea of shows on the boards. Hence my recommendation of organization.

 

[jbsolo]

Damn...I did a marathon of the shows last night...wow!
I'd rather save them and watch 4 to 5 episodes...keeps it really exciting!

Can anyone explain why

Spoiler

Carroll surrendered to Hardy in the pilot episode? What was the point of breaking out of prison, surrendering and going back to prison, and then breaking out again? I really like this show but that part is confusing to me.
