Not seen anything on it until you mentioned it, looks like it has potential

Seen up to episode 10 (technically only 9eps, they didn't air 8 for some reason).
It's ok, just a bit formulaic.

It's good... I've seen all 10 of the current episodes (Neanderthal - 8 is being shown next week, by the looks of the trailer at the end of 10 - though available 'elsewhere' last week. This week was a double bill with 9 and 10... anyway, work that out).

As it's another J J Abrams production, if you watched LOST then you'll recognise a few similar things:

1. 'Hurley' is one of the main characters
2. Half of the music has been taken directly from LOST, or at least it sounds like it.
3. The title sequence and the title wording is very LOSTesque.

If anyone is interested, other good US TV shows currently airing or 'available' include:

- Suits (on UK TV now I think)
- White Collar (similar in some ways to Suits)
- Homeland
- Alphas

Yup, watching Alphas too. Just like Heroes, humans with special abilities. Great

Touch is the new Kiefer Sutherland program.

I'm doubt that it's on UK TV at the moment, but it's available from "other" sources.

I was going to say, I wouldn't invest any time in watching this due to it being cancelled.
