The wife and I really enjoyed this show and we really hope it sticks around a while. We watched it on Hulu because we can see it in HD. Our basic cable isn't HD so we will watch it on Hulu. I do get the Hunger Games reference with the lead character running around like she does. Did you guys know she is from Greece. And I really like the dude in the group with the AC/DC shirt on! I wonder if NBC had to get permission from Angus Young to use it in the show?
[spoiler]Loved the part when they were walking around Chicago and they walked by Wrigley Field. Awesome shot.[/spoiler]

Still trying to warm up to this one. Watched the first episode, trying to get a feel for the characters. I like the over all premise of the show, but not sure if I really know or into the series mysteries or what will be the running storyline.
[spoiler]The lady at the end with the computer and the power I did not find all that shocking, if I had my guess, the person on the other end of the computer is the mother, but I suspect that is probably not determined yet, or if it has, will be awhile off before we find out. Looks like it will be a lot like LOST with plenty of flashbacks.[/spoiler]

Ok, episode two... I'm going to watch it again, but this was a tad bit better than the first.

Just watched the second episode.  I'm still mixed on this show.  Besides my previous comments about the premise I'm having trouble with most of the characters.  I like Miles I guess the best and Charlie is ok, but the rest just aren't doing much for me.  I'll give it another episode or two and decide to continue or not then.  I'm starting to think I'm a bit burned out on this type of series now.

I am still liking it a lot and Jamie isn't running out of the room when it's on so that's a big plus!

I'm enjoying it. There are a few scenes where I wanted to punch someone in the face, but otherwise it's good. I also like how they are trying to define exactly what's happening without showing too much.

Just watched this at lunch.  Really liked it!  I'll keep watching for sure.  Al I can't believe you didn't get a Hunger Games vibe from the hot brunette teenage girl tear-assing around the woods with a crossbow, but I sure did.
?? Katniss didn't have a crossbow. :)

X, I'm with you on this. I think it's a really good show, and after the second episode, I think your theories are spot on.

Enjoyed the 2nd episode after watching it on Hulu. I really hope this sticks around. I read somewhere that it had very good ratings.

Man, apparently flint lock muzzle loading rifles are in ready supply 15 years from now! LOL!

Just watched episode three and still have mixed feelings about the series (still not really grabbing me).  But it did get picked up for the full season.

I mean did they raid every museum and Revolutionary War recreation club in the US?! Could there possibly be that many operating flintlocks in the world!! LOL! I still enjoyed the show and loved the ending, glad it's being picked up.

Super happy to hear it got picked up for the full season. Still need to catch episode 3 on Hulu.

I seriously need to cull some shows this year as I just don't have the time to watch week by week. I'm enjoyed this but I'm not itching to see it straight away so it may get the chop for now.
