Phoenix and Heineken have already admitted they watch the show. What about the other members of The Board? Do you think this Lost-tinted series deserves a cult following or not?
I saw both episodes and must admit I liked them a lot - especially the second one, which proved that the series may be much more than just picking up the pieces of the bank robbery trauma. Great to see Tim Daly (Wings) in good shape again, too. I'm only afraid some parts may eventually turn out cliched - hands up all of you who think the sexy lawyer decides to support Daly's tired cop in the end... But we'll see. It looks very promising for now.

I like it but I don't want to become too attached. I've been reading the ratings aren't the greatest following Lost which means it may not survive the season.
Good acting though and I'm intrigued by the overall story.

I'm with Phoenix on this one. So far, I think it's more "pretty good" than "great". I am intrigued by the plot line, and most of the characters are interesting, but it's kind of slow going so far. Even though it's slowly unveiling info about the characters and what really happened during the bank robbery, it doesn't have the "wow factor" that LOST usually has whenever it reveals a little more information to us. Even JERICHO & especially HEROES, have a bit more of that "can't wait to see what happens next week" feel to them, imho. I'll stick with it for a bit longer, but we'll see. If the ratings haven't been that great so far, then hopefully they'll at least get to wrap up the story before they're cancelled. I hate when shows are cancelled with storylines stilll in progress. Like BLADE & SMITH.

Last nights episode was especially slow for me. I feel like I learned very little about everyone and, like you said Heineken, the revelations aren't really that interesting....
so felicia called 9-1-1. *yawn*
Still, I'll stick with it. I just am not as excited about it as I was after the pilot episode. I can see where some viewers may be turned off and are dropping it.

For me, after the two episodes, The Nine is more interesting than the current season of Lost. At least it doesn't seem they're stretching it and patching it up. We'll see how these two develop but as I said - right now I'm more interested in The Nine.

The third episode was the weakest so far. Not much happened AND they managed to destroy previous episode's controversial finale (the doctor's killing). Hmmm.
