    Anybody else watch this? Just premiered last night on NBC at 8pm. I'm watching the first 2 episodes right now and holy fucking shit this is a really interesting show. Hope it don't get cancelled before it builds the following it inevitably will.

    Just watched it, seems pretty good, good story so far plus already building lots of subplots.

    I was hoping someone else would make a thread about this show! I watched it earlier today and thought it was really amazing. I loved Ian McShane and I think that it has amazing potential to be a really great network show. I liked the story, I liked the little twists that they threw in, and I thought that overall it looked extremely well shot. It never felt like some shitty low budget show at all, it completely enveloped the look of the empire in the city scenes, and I just thought it was overally really good, if just for two episodes.

    I see a lot of epic-ness coming out of this series, can't wait til next week.

    I looked all day for a thread about this show, I love the whole alternate timeline/ alternate universe thing. Supposedly they have 13 episodes for a full season, maybe if it's not canceled season 2 will have more episodes.

    I think its promising for a full time pickup cause back when the ads first came out it was advertised as a mini series iirc so they might have extended the show.

    It was started by one of the Heroes creators...so be prepaired for one season of greatness, then a sharp drop after.

    I'm like 25 minutes into this show and I can already say it's going to be epic. The acting, the cinematography, everything. The story is solid, but SOMEHOW not gimmicky even with the david and goliath thing.

    I REALLY hope this IS a mini series. I just don't want to see something like this drag out!

    I didn't get a chance to watch this, but it turns out it's free for download on the PSN in HD too,
    After reading the responses in this thread I'll check it out, it's free anyway so I'm not losing anything.

    It sure looked like him, maybe it was because it was dark and my monitor sucks.
