Anybody else watching this new show?
It's not going to change television as we know it, but I've found it to be entertaining so far. At least it's something new during the summer, when it is mostly reruns on.
(How's that for a ringing endorsement?)
 
I haven't watched last night's show yet, but I think it's a pretty good show and I'm just happy to be watching something new during the summer, because everything else that's on is pure ****...

Is it about Stonewall's horse? Is it set at VMI?
 
My wife and I don't watch too much tv (and we don't have HBO), so after hearing so many people talk about shows last year, we picked a show to watch together. Without knowing much about it, I picked "Six Degrees" - a total stink bomb and waste of several hours of my life.. Then I discovered 30 Rock late in the season and I love it.

She picked Traveller as her show, and we watched the first two episodes last weekend. I'm kind of hooked and will give it a go. I won't comment since I haven't seen last night's episode.
 
I'm kinda weary of this one. Haven't watched it yet, but the concept of two average kids avoiding the law after being falsely accused of bombing a building, just lacks a bit too much credibility for even me.

Nice call, Okie. You beat me to it. I'm hooked on it already. I watched last night's episode and made a mental note to post this morning to see if anyone else was into it. This thing has some potential to be a fun and lively show.
 
I liked Six Degrees... I was disappointed when it was canceled. Between Six Degrees, Studio 60, Smith, Kidnapped, and The Nine, shows I liked didn't fare too well this season...

Maybe this should be the new trend... Trot out new shows during the summer when people will watch by default...

Robert E. Lee's horse was named Traveller.

I believe Stonewall's was named Little Sorrel.

I hang my head in shame.

Good call.
 
Glad they finally showed what happend to the friend, but I get a serious "Daybreak" vibe from this show and its hard to get worked up about a bombing at a museum after seeing 24.
 
This show is getting pretty good.

Will pulling a gun on the fbi agent at the end of this week's show was good.
 
It's a very good show... I just wonder if they're burning off episodes during the summer for some reason or if this will be on the fall schedule... I hope it is...
 
They're just burning off episodes, folks. The show was canceled a while ago. Sorry.

Aw fudge... well, my wife was figuring this was a one shot deal anyways (how do you continue the plot based on these characters?)

I agree, I couldn't see it going past this season either, but I have enjoyed the show so far. It's fairly far-fetched, yes, but hell, it's not a reality show. The premise is entertaining and the show flips and turns. I was kinda bored watching last night but had a holy **** moment when Will pulled the gun at the end. The show has a way of doing that, getting you ready to shut it off, then wham! I didn't know it was cancelled, though. I remember watching the pilot and seeing a scheduled debut of may 30th. I just thought it was going to be a summer show, kind of like what FX does.
