watched it last week, it's from JJ Abrams of Lost. Looks like it's gonna be another hit and has Hurley from Lost on it as well. Kind of a sci-fi, mystery show with action. Only 2 shows in third is this Monday.

I was looking forward to this show because I think Sam Neill is a good actor and Alcatraz has a fascinating history. I didn't even make it through the first episode. This show is horrible.

I don't think it is that bad but it is not that great either.  It does not have the hook factor.  They are too slow in releasing some the reasons why they are coming back that keeps you asking for more.  They don't have the cliff hanger at the end of each episode (like Lost) that makes you wish it was already Monday again.  I will give it time since I think JJ Abrams probably deserves it with one of my favorite series of all time but I am quickly losing interest.

By the way the female blonde cop has a great rack but blah face.  BOL!

yeah, I think it will start revealing things. So far the reveals have been so-so, not really gonna say what they are, if you are watching you know. Lost could crawl at times as well so I will keep with it as well. It dropped from 10 million+ viewers to 9 million+ viewers. So we will see how it goes.

well it's getting a 2.8 rating just behind 2 and a half men. It did fall in viewers to 8.5 million viewers, but still a strong showing. Unless something happens and it drops like a rock (pun intended) it won't be going anywhere.
