CoachChuckDickerson Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I hope other folks are watching, great show. Wednesday at 8.
buckeyemike Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I saw the first episode, but did not see the last two due to other conflicts. I thought that it started out strong. How were the other episodes?

Fezmid Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I've seen the first few episodes. Pretty good, but not great. Better than most things on TV though.
ajzepp Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 No way I'm watching that, man....the promos scared the living hell outta me.
Tux of Borg Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 My roommate is hooked on that show. I hate the sappy piano music every 5 minutes. I also looked up the spoilers on the internet and wasn't too impressed with how the rest of the series turned out.

Gyserville!! 796771[/snapback] When it comes to venipuncture, I'm the best in the world....it's documented I don't know who they hire at the Red Cross, but the ones here where I live are some smug beyotches! Nice to hear you gave blood, though....I don't think people realize how important that really is!

I always get a t-shirt. This time I got 3 passes to the Aquarium where I live. The kids will love it, again. Its worth the bruise

Kudos to you
Fezmid Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Close to my first gallon. Congrats! My dad has been giving blood every time he's been legally allowed to since he was 18. Gallons and gallons. He has all sorts of gold plated pins and such commemorating his giving. I'd give blood if I didn't have an insane fear of needles... BTW - what's this have to do with Jericho? CW

CW 796801[/snapback] Sorry, hi-jack city. I saw aj and was reminded of his work.. Here let me try.. JericHo SUCKS!!! (better )
ajzepp Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I'd give blood if I didn't have an insane fear of needles... Ironically enough, I can't gve blood either I found out the hard way that I vaso-vagal when I get stuck, which basically means my heart drops down into a "not so safe" rate. I can pretty much stick anyone and get blood from places other RNs won't even think of trying, but if I get stuck my body can't tolerate it, lol.
GoodBye Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I have never given blood. Does that make me bad??
ajzepp Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I have never given blood. Does that make me bad?? 796818[/snapback] Yep
I 90 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 How many serials can I to commit to ? Of Jericho, Vanished, Kidnapped, The Nin9, Six Degrees ... I chose Smith on the strength of cast ( Ray Liotta, Ginny Madsen, Amy Smart, Jonny Lee Miller, Simon Baker). Skeet Ulrich, Major Dad and Pamela Reed didn't quite compare. Does it have the taint of Lost ? The isolation angle requires much suspension of belief, no ? I would hate to miss out on another winner. .

I want to be engaged by the story, not by a set of single-serving episodes. I think that's one thing that makes Joss Whedon so popular (Buffy, Angel, Firefly) - he wrote shows that could stand alone but also fit into a bigger picture. There's a minor thread and several major threads throughout each season. Excellend writing. Prison Break is similar in that regard. Veronica Mars is another excellent example (and HIGHLY recommended). Of course it helps to have TiVo... CW
DevilsAlum Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I hope other folks are watching, great show. Wednesday at 8. 796735[/snapback] I've watched the first two episodes (the third is still on the DVR) and have enjoyed them and the premise of the show. It brings me back to my teenage years when I was obsessed with nuclear war. I will, however, give up on the show if they go in the direction of government conspiracy; which is where I fear they are going.

Well done
