    This premise is intriguing but seems unsustainable. No way to extend this into multiple seasons without moving the goalposts. The first episode will probably be pretty cool, but I'm not getting sucked in.

    Couldn’t you have said that for Lost?

    Yes. Lost is the reason I try not to watch shows like this anymore.

    Yes but they were the first and the only. I did a lost trivia night once and one of the questions was name 4 shows that followed Lost that tried to capture its viewership but in the end never lasted. Fascinating that it was such a rock in whatever time slot it was in.

    What did everyone think?

    My thoughts:

    The plot twist of super powers is weird. Is this Lost or Heroes? I’ll keep watching but I don’t see how it makes it.

    This is my biggest worry. Also, I don't trust NBC when it comes to TV dramas anymore (The last good one was Hannibal imho).

    It was entertaining.... for a network drama

    My only gripe, and it is consistent among any show like this, so not just this show specifically:

    When these people undergo and experience some cataclysmic event like this and come away with super powers.... why are the powers always cryptic? "Slower... slower..." as opposed to "stop the fucking bus you're bout to hit a kid!"

    Or my favorite, "set them free.... set them free" as opposed to your inner voice saying "bitch, this mother fucker has got some little girls chained up an inprisoned for only god knows what! Get these girls outta there!"

    Just seems like a bullshit superpower if we always have to decipher the message.

    It's not great, but not bad. Interesting premise that has me interested in how it ends. Will con't watching.

    Guess we’ll find out next year at the 5 year mark. I can’t believe that was 4 years ago. When you mentioned it my mind went to like a year ago.

    That's where I'm at. But I've come too far and now need to know what the hell happened. Plus the wife still wants to watch it, so I'm stuck.

    But the doc is fire....

    This show get worse every week. Even my wife said they are losing her at this point. I'm going to stick it out because I've come this far and I want to know what the hell is going on....but I really don't want to.

    Oh...and the acting is terrible. Especially the non-main characters. Just awful.

    Except for the doc...she's fire
