Looks good. One of those, "I'll catch up on it when I have some expendable money to throw away on a TV show I've never seen before but have been told to look into" shows.

The only others that actually qualify for that so far in my life are Battlestar, Arrested Development, and the UK version of The Office. All three kick ass. I'll add the 4400 to it eventually.

Never watched 4400. Any good? (Dumb question, I realize)

My new show this year is Heroes. I like it.

[AKAArzosah]

Yay, Heroes!

I liked the 4400 until I accidentally missed two episodes, and then nothing made any sense anymore.

[Chancellor Valium]

That is the problem and the joy of it - that it's a serial, I think.

As to whether it's worth checking out, I'd say so. But you really do have to start at the very beginning.

Sounds very much to me like a "watch it all the way through on DVD" sorta show.

[AKAArzosah]

Very much so. I think I missed some particularly important episodes, wheresomeone got trapped in time or something, and somebody was assasinated. I have no idea who or how or why these things happened, but they were very important to the plot.

I watched the miniseries, and it was okay. It was filmed around here (like EVERY sci-fi filmed in Canada or anywhere except for Doctor Who nowadays). I never really kept track of it, though.
