I hope to see this program make a good go. So far, so good. I plan on keeping my DVR set to record it. I still want to know what happen

They might have picked San Diego because there is a naval base there."Embress your life, find what it is that you love, and pursue it with all your soul. For if you do not, when you come to die, you will find that you have not lived."

Ep 2 was pretty good. Look forward to next weeks ep
Science Fiction is an existential metaphor; it allows us to tell stories about the human condition.

So far it looks as if the ratings are still good. Fallout scored CBS's highest 18-49 ratings in that slot since 2003.Originally posted by BackStageJimComment

lol. Damn it! We just spent $185 million dollars ($115 million of that in FEMA dollars) to renovate the Superdome in New Orleans, drafted Reggie Bush, and the Saints are 3 and 0.Originally posted by ShadowMaatFolks on TWOP think that someone has finally had it with the NFL and is targeting all the major team cities.

Still liking Jericho
Spoiler for the 3rd episode (better safe than sorry)
Spoiler:
However, at least the story is progressing enough to keep me interested. I just hope it doesn't become a soap opera of sorts where you can miss several episodes and still find them in the same situation of cluelessness. I had to laugh a bit at the beginning when they were doing the previously on Jericho bit again. At this rate, the next episode will consist of a 15 minute intro on what happen previously. I think viewers have the idea by now, and for those just tuning in, they can probably figure it out.Comment

On the preview of the next episode, the guy said that they are coming. Who is coming? Aliens or North Korean soldiers.sigpicThe Edge of the Night; contains love from the heart and soul, outpouring love to one and love one country.Comment

The show is starting to annoy me with its superheroism and misinformation.
I'm really beginning to hate SuperSkeet and his ability to do EVERYTHING. Thank god there aren't any oceans nearby or he'd part the waters. Or walk over them.

I'm watching for Hawkins right now, but my BS tolerance levels are maxing out...Comment

So far I'm not too irritated with super Skeet. He's done a lot but the writers have also had him use a lot of the resources around him to get things done. Of course I'd love to see the resume that leads from doing a trachiotomy to knowing how to bundle and set explosives.Originally posted by ShadowMaatThe show is starting to annoy me with its superheroism and misinformation.

As for the reel to reel thing, i didn't think it was particularily far fatched...i had one myself up until 10 years ago, or so.
I'm really looking forward to next week though. Don't know if we'll find out who 'they' are, but I think the 'cop from st. louis' guy is one of them.
Ah well, as long as it doesn't go completely Lost and never reveal anything, I'll be happy. Gonna stick with it a while longer.Comment

I've given this show three episodes now and I find it rather. . .meh. I still don't know all the character names (maybe because some of those young, pretty things all look alike), and somehow in the midst of a possible nuclear war, the girls all manage to have their lip gloss on hand.
I love the idea of end-of-the-world thrillers (the books The Stand and Swan's Song come to mind at the moment), but this is too cliche-ridden and downright boring at times. I'll give it one more episode, just because I'm curious about "who" is coming.
When all else fails, change channels.Comment

Ya know, I really don't know any of their names either. I think it is partly because I am not paying attention when they say them, and partly becuase there are so many of them.Originally posted by FoolishPleasureComment

I doubt Dale plans on telling anyone about the food, other than maybe the woman who owns the grocery store. After the people came in and stripped the store, I’m not so sure he’s worried about letting the town know where there is more food.
From day one I didn’t find the writing all that great. And now the editing is starting to grate on me, but I’m sticking around cause I want to know what is up with Hawkins. I’m not exactly sure that he is involved but I think he knew this was going to happen.IMO always implied.Comment

Quiet an eventful and entertaining episode this week. Looks to be a decent show so far :thumbsu:Science Fiction is an existential metaphor; it allows us to tell stories about the human condition.

Watching this show brings to mind another show that really annoyed me, but the viewing public seemed to love...Twin Peaks. My opinion finally won out as it had no follow on after the first season died. I'm thinking that may ultimately be what happens here."The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners."

I was actually thinking about that earlier today and I can see this as almost a new format of programming. A series that is intened to tell a story over the course of one or two seasons and then end, not by cancellation, but because that was the design.
With Jericho, I see it as:
Season 1
What, who, why and how
Season 2
Living in the new world and circumstances that surround them and ending with the people who will survive and continue living a new life. The end.
Who knows though, there may actually be a design and plan behind it to keep it going. Right now I will continue to tune in cause I want to see the 'what, who why and how'.
