    It is the only show, other than the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, that I make plans to watch during the week. The conspiracy theories, the scenes, the acting: everything works for me. I have seen four episodes and still have not idea "who done it". I find all three main characters compelling. Yeah, the two are a bit dense when it comes to fleeing the FBI. Who wouldn't be?!!

My only fear, after last night's episode, is that it will morph into an alien plot. There is enough paranoia in the country with Bush/Cheney in charge, that the show doesn't need to add the deus ex machina plot device of evil aliens. Expand

    This show, to me, is the next 24. It seems to have all of the intensity, as well as a good plot (judging from the first two shows. I look forward to the rest of the season.

    I LOVE this show. It contains elements from "The Fugitive," but yet is nothing like a copycat of it. The circumstances are very different. I came across this show by accident. I was getting ready to turn the channel because I wasn't really in the mood for a drama, but this one caught my attention within the first few minutes and I haven't missed an episode since.

    Amazing story. It is fresh, and new, and the anxiety from watching it as you sit on the edge of your seat waiting for your heroes to find a way to free themselves from a conspiracy is riveting. I would love more character development, not just character history, but just eccentricities that give them more spark. Nevertheless, an amazing show

    I am a child of "The Fugitive" TV show and loved it. This is perhaps the only show (Alias notwithstanding) that makes me long for the days of Dr. Richard Kimble. Great show! No doubt it will get cancelled in favor of some absurd reality show.

    I think this show is one of the best on ABC. It not only is exciting, but unpredictable. Keeps me on my toes and I look forward to each new coming epsiode.

    I stumbled upon this show by complete accident and i'm glad I did. This is by far the BEST SHOW EVER!!! I wait all week to see what will happen next. My husband and I are on the edge of our seats the entire hour. Each episode gets better and better and there is never a dull moment. I LOVE IT!!!

    Show is amazing, it's the first show I can remember in a long time that makes me hate the time in between, worth watching for sure. Best show on TV right now in my mind.

    Another workmanlike, reasonably decent thriller.
  2. You have to suspend an awful lot of disbelief to buy into this premise, and even at that the protagonists aren't nearly compelling enough to care a lot about.
  3. It's all very tense and fun, underscored by sirens and ominous techno music, shot in that popular, over-caffeinated jumpiness that here at least makes sense.
