Wow.
Anyone watching this show? Love the storyline, the action, Taye Diggs is doing a hell of an acting job.
Quickly becoming my favorite show on TV...after Heroes, of course. _________________ Stephon Marbury on Kobe: "He's the only person on 'dis earth that can do 'dat.

Its a pretty good show. Sucks that we will probably not even see the end of it since they will probably cancel it if the ratings are bad. And yeah Taye Diggs has done a great job. |

I suggest everyone give it a shot. I didn't watch it early on, got on ABC.com and saw that they store 4-6 shows online for viewers and had to watch it myself. VERY compelling show. I better get to see the end or I'll be pissed. _________________ Stephon Marbury on Kobe: "He's the only person on 'dis earth that can do 'dat. He guards people, like shuts 'em down.

That show is gonna get cancelled, thats why I'm not watching. I HATE it when that happens. It goes like this 24>Prison Break>anything else. Heroes was cool but now it's starting to go all over the place, I lost interest awhile ago. Lost lost me and I am refusing to start up again once the new season starts. Cant wait till the Fox big hitters are back on the air. And in the rare chance that Day Break stays on for a full season, then I can watch it all in one sitting! That's how shows are meant to be watched, with NO COMMERCIALS and no 4 week breaks. |

What it is about? I know that its about a man who keeps going through the same day over and over again, but how can they have an entire season of that? _________________ Double rings > Double rainbow |

That was my impression as well. The duration of the series start to finish is supposed to fit neatly in the time needed for LOST's mid-season hiatus. It's funny because they even advertised it as sort of the antithesis of LOST because "all your questions will be answered within 11 weeks".
But even if a show is short, if the ratings are bad enough (I haven't kept up with them so I don't know), ABC would have no choice but to cancel. CBS and ABC are battling for the number one network position and they have quick triggers when a show is not succeeding. Remember those shows that starred Heather Graham and John Stamos on ABC? Or ABC's version of American Idol called "Making of a Star" or something. You probably don't because they all had like 2 episodes before getting canceled. CBS also canceled that awesome show "Smith" with Ray Liotta earlier this season after only 3 episodes. I thought that show had potential. |

Shows nobody has patience anymore, except Lost fans seemingly. Though they're a little TOO patient in my opinion. |

I haven't followed a TV show since F*R*I*E*N*D*S.
Oh how I loved that show, ever since it ended I never got attached to anything. Their also seems to be so many hit or miss shows that it's just getting out of control.
I might tune in to this Day Break just to see what it's all about though. |

I just watched the last episode from wednesday. Pretty damn good. What I didn't follow though is how did Hopper find that old guys address? 7 episodes left in the series. |

its a good show, but if you miss an episode, youre effed. it would be way to hard for someone to tune in after missing a couple of episodes and figure out whats going on. the show only makes sense if youve seen all the episodes in order. |

I guess we might not see the last seven eps even though they were shot. Sucks since it was only meant to be a 13 episode season and we wont even get that.
Edit:
I hear they will try to air the rest of series on ABC.com. Who knows how long that will last though. |
