The Event

Back on now.

Will it make more sense?

[Laurel Green]

I doubt it but, willing to give it another go.

Note for Mrs. Fish.

I agree

For others this is what I'm meaning!

But as I said before it is very watchable.

[Laurel Green]

Well, it's certainly starting to warm up a tad.

I've changed my mind.

The dark haired girl is definitely hotter.

Baddies are always hotter.

Still not watched this and I need space on my sky box, is it worth watching?
Loved BSG, never watched Lost, got bored with that flash forward thing.

I agree with the comments about it improving. The first two episodes were starting to do my head in. I'm still unsure if i really like it, but it's watchable enough for now

We're really enjoying it. Just worried about how big a commitment I've signed up to; i.e. will we still be wondering in series 6 what the hell's going on?

Personally I'd prefer it if it was a mini-series - been hooked too often like that in the past.

It is amazing how derivative it seems - X Files, Lost, 24, V, the Fugitive all immediately come to mind.

Also is obviously a metaphor for Guantanamo Bay and the War on Terror - "the enemy amongst us" and all that. Just like all the 50's sci-fi films were supposed to be a metaphor for the Cold War.

I agree - it is indeed very cliched and derivative. I've watched the first three episodes and really can't be bothered anymore! Also, the acting of the main male lead (the young bloke on the run) is shockingly bad.

I was initially a big fan of 'Lost', but stopped watching it about half-way through Series 3 when I realised that the writers really were making it up as they went along. I won't be making that mistake again.

Absolute rubbish. Not watching that kak again!
