Has anyone else seen this show?

For starters, I am NOT a big fan of the main actress. I AM a big fan of Josh Wheadon, who also did Firefly.

I honestly thought at first that it would be a dumb show but I'm growing VERY fond of it. It keeps getting more and more complicated and...OMG, the FBI agent is all sorts of sexy.

Ahhhh...good times.

Never heard of it, meaning it's probably not aired here. What network is it on over there?

I like it. I do think that Eliza Dushku's acting isn't up to par with the rest of the cast, which is a shame.

It's on Fox, and the FBI guy Tahmoh Penikett, who was also on BSG. I've never understood what's so appealing about him, but I guess a lot of girls watched BSG specifically to drool over him...

I saw a couple episodes and didn't really like it. I've never been a Whedon fan, though. Dushku may be easy on the eyes but she's hard on the brain.

I can't really tell you what the appeal is to Tahmoh but I would definitely not turn him away if he came up to my room. (Then again, I haven't had sex in a year or so, I'm allowed to have some fantasies.)

Dushku's acting is laughable. I've become very addicted to the story line though. And Jimmy, in my opinion, the first two episodes didn't build up where the story was going nearly as well as it should have. Which is probably why you didn't like it.

I watched the third and fifth episodes, I think? It just happened to be on.

Hm. Angel's watching it so I guess it does play here? What network is it on here, Angel?

It's not on here, I'm an evil criminal and download. I have no idea when or if it will show here.

I've got nothing against downloading if it's not available in your country. Whoever has the distribution rights should take advantage of the fact that people are jumping up and down wanting to see a show, rather than forcing people download illegally.

That said, I usually don't download a new show just to try it out. If I hear enough good things about it, I sometimes do. So far, the strong points of this one seem to be the attractiveness of the actors, so I'm not interested. :)

No, it's actually really good. Well, I think so. Every episode has a new twist and it just keeps getting better. I can see a lot of people not liking it, though.

I haven't gotten to the latest episode but I can tell you that the last few have shocked me. As in, OMG I have to see the next one! In fact, all I did this Sunday was catch up on the show. Very good, Jen.

The actor Tahmoh being good looking is just a benefit.

Ah, ok. What's the premise of the show? I've never even seen a trailer for it as I live here and it apparently doesn't air here. :)

It's about people that have had their brains completely wiped clean. Their personalities are gone. They are then imprinted with seperate personalities based on what client's want and then are wiped clean again after the "mission" is over.

The rest is just what you are going to have to find out. ;) Anymore given than that and you will not enjoy the show.

Sounds really interesting. It's a shame it doesn't air here because I'm too lazy to pirate anything anymore.
