they sure are hyping it up so yeah I'll watch early on to see if I like it or not.

Seems like an interesting character to follow up after playing Ben.

Caught the first half and I'll probably watch the rest. Seems pretty decent, at least.

Jesus and Ben are two of my favorite actors, so that's the only reason I'm watching. I usually don't care for these types of shows. (CBS seems to mass produce them.)

Linus cannot narrate this show. He set the tone at the beginning to expect a flat, monotonous performance in narration and acting from the two leads.

I think Steven might have right in another thread when I had mentioned something was amiss with this show, he said the leads had no charisma. I like both guys but they need somebody to bring that to the show. With the lady cop's role she might have a chance unless they continue to dump their saved lives onto her for her care.

I like the backstory even though it far stretches what is actually possible at this point.

I actually thought the backstory in the last episode made it seem a little mroe plausible. We have all read or probably thought about the expanding powers of the government and using technology to key in on words in our emails, phone converstaions, and other communicatiosn to piece together odds of a crime happening seems possible.

At some point this has to backfire on them. Their names should be on the report every day.

We're a couple of episodes behind but we like the show also.

It took a bit of mental adjusting to follow but I really enjoy it.

Okay, I'm now caught up with this show and I'd have to say it rivals Mentalist for my favorite Fall show. It's a good show that just gets stronger every week.

Is anyone still watching this? I started binging it a few weeks ago and I'm just about at the end of the 1st season. Started off bland but improved, and some big fans where I work have said that it gets really good in Season 2.
