Did anyone catch it?

Meant to be the new Lost (in terms of addictiveness). Done by the same dude too (J.J. Abrams - Lost & Cloverfield).

Saw the first bit last night as I was tired so recorded it on Sky Plizzao, looks quite good.

Wonder if it will be based on different scenario's each week (ala xfiles as you say) or if it follows on.

TBF whilst it does seem to be an "X Files" rip-off it seems to be quite well done and may well work. I just hope that they don`t over do it and make it out-stay its welcome like "Lost"

Both yes.

Actually not as interested three episodes in as I was after watching the pilot. It's not bad but the two leading male characters particularly the mentalist dad is wearing a bit thin. It's not anything mightily original like Lost was to some extent, more like a souped up XFiles.

It's OK, he's only in 4 episodes.

Trouble is, the son gets weirder by the day.

As well as being broadcast earlier than here in the States, the whole series has been on piratebay. The Pilot was deliberately uploaded there months ago by the producers.

Ah, I'm still away from the house, 4th episode is waiting for me when I get back.

I hope they ditch the son too then. I can't take him seriously either - Dawson's Creek.

Bit predictable in the sense that they find something weird, the doctor solves it and its all related to massive dynamic everytime. Another dont know who is good or bad programme. Looks good so far but i hope it gets a lot better.

After the last episode on sky (#5 i think) we've decided not to bother watching it any more, as Le Goddard says, its "find something wierd, solve it" each week with the same stale characters.

yawn.

I'm about at that stage too.

Final season of Lost looks much better to wait for.
