    Default The Event

    I've been waiting ages for this and it's started in the US as of last night.

    Just watching it now so fingers crossed it will live up to the trailers!

    Saw the trailer a few months ago and while I don't hold out much hope for it as it looks cliched and calculatedly soulless as fuck, I will give it a go and hope to be pleasantly surprised.

    District 9 crossed with V

    Oh - here's the "About" from the networks page :

    The Event is an emotional, high-octane conspiracy thriller that follows Sean Walker (Jason Ritter, "The Class"), an everyman who investigates the mysterious disappearance of his would-be fiancée Leila (Sarah Roemer, "Disturbia"), and unwittingly begins to expose the biggest cover-up in U.S. history.

    Sean's quest will send ripples through the lives of an eclectic band of strangers, including newly elected U.S. President Elias Martinez (Golden Globe nominee Blair Underwood, "In Treatment"); Sophia Maguire (Emmy Award nominee Laura Innes, "ER"), who is the leader of a mysterious group of detainees; and Leila's shadowy father (Scott Patterson, "Gilmore Girls"). Their futures are on a collision course in a global conspiracy that could ultimately change the fate of mankind.

    Let's hope that in regards to quality it's a lot like the former and fuck all like the latter then.

    Just watched it and although I didn't like the jumping around in time thing (reminds me a lot of Flash Forward) I did enjoy it and looking forward to seeing this progress.

    I'm thinking it's a group of people who have abilities detained in Alaska for their own protection, kinda like an X-Men crossed with The 4400.

    Up to now it's good shit man

    I found it too much like fast forward and can see it as a series of lots of little clues to some big mystery that the writer have not decided on yet.

    Saying that I am going to be watching this,

    Watched this last night, think its going to turn out quiet good.

    Its going to be one of the bigger new shows that will just run for years though, without much explanation, but will be entertaining enough to keep us hooked.

    My missus was in New York a few weeks ago and she said it was everywhere. Advertising boards and the big screens around Times Square and all the bus stops and street posters. They are really investing in this which is a good sign as so often now tv studios are not sure about a show and they spend little on the advertising.

    I think out of all the shows this and the cape are the big ones, they've probably already had a second season agreed at the least.

    I can confirm this. I was there last week and it was all over the place.
    This and a movie coming out called the 'Virginity Hit' that one of our customers 'graded'.

    Not seen Ep 1 yet, got too much other stuff to watch. If this turns out to be good I will jump onto it after season 1.
