    Just watched it on dvr. Reminds of twin peaks a bit, though not quirky.

    Very good. Really liked it.

    Finally had a chance to watch this last night and all I can say is, Wow! Amazing. Reminds me a lot of Rubicon - interesting, smart characters; atmospheric and moody cinematography and score. I'm really impressed by the actors too. Especially in the scene where the dad shows up at the car, his wife is on the other end of the phone and the boys standing alone in the living-room. The isolation and impotence that each of them felt was palpable and deeply moving.

    I think AMC is becoming my new favourite channel.

    I remember reading about it in the paper, but I never watched it. Is it honestly that good?

    i would say so. i'm only 2 episodes deep but there's a lot of depth to the characters. the story is great. and there's many different directions they can go at this point. give it a go.

    I'm digging this thread up because I watched the forst 3 episodes this weekend on demand and am officially hooked on this. I think I am now 2 behind since last night was new. Well worth a try for anyone looking for a new series to get into.

    I just watched the 1st five minutes of the 1st Ep today, then got side tracked and haven't got round to watching the rest, but it seemed alright.

    I just started watching this through On Demand last week after reading that AMC had a new show. I've only seen the first 2 hours but I'm really liking it so far. It's really great television. I have to admit, my eyes got watery at the end of the first hour. Even though I knew that scene was coming from an article I had read, the acting was just so good!

    I have a hard time believing that theyd give it away in the episode before the finale, but who knows. The last couple of minutes of the last ep was awesome!!!! I love Holder now. Earlier in the season he kind of annoyed me. ahhhhhhh, character development.

    the 10th episode was really brilliant. they finally let us know who these two people are. i didn't care for holder much before that episode. but i like the dude now. it kind of reminded me of one of those sopranos episodes that most people didnt like except me...the kind of episode that drifted away from the main story line's to really delve into a couple of the characters. the acting in that episode was just phenomenal.

    yeah i doubt they would give it away too. i don't really know what to think at this point. :lol: doesn't seem like they're gonna be able to tie up all the loose ends with one more episode though.
