Is anybody watching this show?
Its sort of like Lost but much better in my opinion.
For those who don't know its basically: one day the entire earths population blacks out and every one of them sees their future for 137 seconds.
And now a team of FBI investigates the cause.
Its pretty cool, lots of mysteries.

I'm enjoying it at the moment too, although seeing Seth MacFarlene in the first episode threw me a bit.

Some obvious plot holes, like burying partial remains of a soldier without doing a DNA test?
Otherwise interesting idea.

I like the show. I've watched every episode up to this point. I'm wondering what they will do after they hit April 29th, 2010. Will they do another "blackout"? If so, then it will probably just become redundant. Nevertheless, I like the show so far.

I'm not sure I can take him seriously because every time he speaks, it is Brian the Dog talking and I can't help but to laugh.

The show looks stupid so never watched it, but an explanation would be nice on the following scenarios.

When everyone blanked out for the 2 or so minutes what happened to the following people?
1. The millions of people who happened to be driving?
2. The thousands of people that happened to be flying in planes?
3. The hundreds of people who happened to be skydiving?
4. The thousands of people who happened to be climbing a ladder, abseiling off cliffs cleaning their roofs or any number of other things which blacking out would cause one to plummet to their death?

They all either died or were injured obviously.

Saw the first episode yesterday, so allow me to answer a few of those questions:

1. They crashed, many of them died. It was pandemonium
2. The ones on autopilot were fine, the ones not, crashed, including planes taxi'ing.
3. Unless their chutes were open, they died? (This was not told in the episode since it's trivial)
4. One guy was doing repairs on powerlines. When he came to, he was dangling by his safety harness. (lol, dangle)

tl;dr many of them died or were injured.

I need around tree fiddy.

Ive seen on other sites that other people interested in the show have also raised similar questions.

I think it may be in the budget or the persons the series is revolved around. It was only in the first episode where we were able to see full carnage with helicopters in buildings etc.

Plus we follow a bunch of FBI people tasked with finding out who did it, rather than people severely effected by it.
