CoolioD1 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Absolutely amazing pilot, I've heard the next few episodes don't live up to it, but that was an awesome start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Pretty mediocre ratings for the premiere.For the other networks yes, for NBC that's pretty good these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Yeah, if it manages to keep ratings at the level they were last night they would get a 2nd season. They probably won't though. I imagine the style of the pilot was off-putting for a lot of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Really liked the pilot. The different color filters for each reality was a nice touch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Wow that was a really amazing pilot. Hopefully the ratings are good enough for a second season, the plot is really interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 For the most part I thought the second episode was pretty damn good. Though the scene at the end where it turns out the whole thing might be a conspiracy REALLY pissed me off. Ugh. This show shouldn't go down that road.

4815162342 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I think the fact that we see scenes not involving Jason Isaacs at all is strong evidence that we are in two real, separate realities and Isaac's character in each reality is aware of the other's existence (instead of the idea that one reality is manufactured inside his head. We have two realities, and two Isaacs).I enjoy that the two shrinks are taking such different approaches to the premise. Cherry Jones' enthusiasm and wonder at his "condition" is refreshing and a nice contrast to B.D. Wong's no-nonsense "you're delusional" approach.Coolio the "conspiracy" part has to do with "why" the "accident" happened. I doubt very much it has anything to do with the awareness of the realities. And that's a fair plot angle to take, examining whether the accident was really an accident and if it wasn't, why that was the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Community Manager Water Bottle Posted March 9, 2012 Community Manager Share Posted March 9, 2012 I think the point is that the conspiracy adds a ridicilous layer to a show that is fairly grounded otherwise (despite the premise.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I think the point is that the conspiracy adds a ridicilous layer to a show that is fairly grounded otherwise (despite the premise.)How can you say it's ridiculous when all you have to go on is a single short scene? We know nothing of what life was life pre-accident, so you have no idea what Isaac's character (in the "color" universe) was getting into. It isn't ridiculous because all we know is that Color-verse Isaac's accident wasn't an accident. It's the hook that brings the audience into a season-long narrative arc in that universe and you can't judge it before it's actually given some time to present itself.Therefore, your argument is ridiculous in its prematurity.

CoolioD1 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Man, all I know is that conspiracy storylines are usually never interesting. I would prefer if it was like UK Life on Mars and mainly focused on the mental state of the character with a little bit of cop show thrown in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieGuyKyle16 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I didn't get to see the 2nd part of the episode because the fire alarm decided to go off, so i missed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebomb Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'm liking this show a lot. There's a bit of mystery mixed in with procedural stuff.The third episode was great! I didn't expect Rex to get kidnapped so fast but it's awesome how the episode worked itself out. I thought the Cooper in the red universe was gonna be a fake out where he turns into an evil son of a bitch and says something sinisterly like "I'm coming for you." as revenge but nope.The mystery part was downplayed a bit this week but it was an intense episode. I think the writers are finding the right balance between procedural and mystery so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
