The bonus episodes are also available to download from the usual suspects. Still not HD quality but better than staring at the little video window.

It's a real shame that the show got crapped on so bad. It was really hitting its stride when it got the rug pulled out from under it and the later episodes definitely showed the effects of the early cancellation decision. I'm just glad that they got to wrap it all up somewhat.

i do think just lumping jared at the end was kind of out of place. i have a feeling he was supposed to play a bigger role...

I am not reading this thread, but just wanted to say that I was a huge Day Break fan, and just got around to watching episode 7...WOW! The show has me on the edge of my seat. I can't believe it got cancelled, though realistically, I doubt I'd be interested in multiple seasons of this show. But still, it's sad it got canned. What a gripping, well written show.

Can't wait to come back here when I've watched all the episodes and see what people thought.

Just finished watching the entire series. WOW, what a huge, deep conspiracy.

Somewhat felt let down by the finale--almost felt it should've been two hours. I think I would've liked to have seen a bigger show-down between Brett and someone else other than his uncle.

Still a little confused about Jared at the end...and actually was curious as to why he didn't show up after he dropped him off at the guy's house who did Jared's surgery. I still can't quite understand what Jared, clean cut and in a suit, represents.

Loved, though, seeing Hopper taking Rita to Vegas and then Mexico...over and over again, to just try and get away from it all. Can't say I wouldn't have attempted the same thing. Nice to see him bet on the Dodgers game.

Very well written show. Loved how things that happened in ep 1 played a role later on. Was shocked that Margo was involved. This was a very well thought out and planned show, from start to finish. It is everything that "24" should be, as far as writing/story goes.

I agree wholeheartedly with all the comments of praise. Its just crazy/frustrating/sickening that a show this good would get cancelled.

It seems that the few people I have mentioned this show to all responded to it with, "A show that takes place in one day? Forget it. That'll be boring to see the same thing over and over."

I'm wondering why the 12.5M and declining Lost fans didn't bother to give this show a chance. It was one of the best serial dramas this fall.

Obviously not 24 fans, which takes place in one day and constantly rehashes the same plotlines over and over.

Finally got through all the episodes, and I was also let down by the lack of explanation for Hopper's groundhog days.

What explanation could they have given you that wouldn't have seemed ridiculous?

They seemed to infer that Jared held the key to it all. I was afraid it was going to turn the Groundhog Day condition into a St. Elsewhere finale ending.
