Its rating are plummeting every week. I doubt it will last until the summer. Thats a shame because I thought it was a good concept.

I hated the first episode to the extent that I could only watch 20 minutes of it, but the second episode was slightly better. But you're probably right. Mid-season replacements don't usually last.

It's been on two weeks... two showings, it's only had one week to fall. While saying "It's ratings are falling every week" is true, it is rather misleading... what if the ratings were to stabilize for the third week?

I heard that Chris Carter's decision as to what to do with The X-Files in the future will hinder on how fox treats The Lone Gunmen. So I think that fox will let TLG run the rest of the season before doing anything with it.

They weren't too kind to Harsh Realm. I hope The Lone Gunmen fair much better.

How soon before Gillian Anderson and Mitch Pileggi show up as guests. They should've both been in the 1st episode.

Odd... I loved the first episode, but I thought the second episode was barely watchable.

I forgot that it switched to Friday so soon. I was expecting another Sunday night episode. Can anyone provide a brief summary? The TV Guide said something about Frohike and Nazis.

Last night's episode was pretty funny. I loved it when Jimmy flipped over the van into the ditch.

Overall, the show has improved greatly since the first episode, and I can see it having a future on Fox.
