So even with all of the "bad hype" this show had.. it turned out to be good? Is it worth a watch?

I felt bad for the chick he killed at the beginning. She must have had that shirt taped to her boobs so it wouldn't open, and that had to be uncomfortable.

i don't think it was bad hype. more like concern, due to all the issue and changes that came about after the pilot was already shot.

We watched it the other night and had a great time.

Tip: Leave your brain and logic at the door and just go along for the ride. It's a lot of fun and Christian is perfect perfect perfect in this role.

Just watch

I was thinking this wouldn't be too good, but then the first few posts convinced me to watch it (iTunes Free).

I was plesantly surprised and pleased!

Best lines of the episode by far:

"Bastard slept with my wife!"
"There's a huge difference between driving somebody's car and somebody's wife!"



I think it will be interesting to see how Henry deals with the day-to-day issues, and how "their" relationship progresses.

I'll definitely stick with this one.

Quickly between Heroes (yeah, I know...), Life, Friday Night Lights and Chuck NBC is becoming a strong network for me.

Good concept, somewhat inept execution. It's no Jekyll, but I'll certainly be watching the next few episodes at least.

I just got around to watching this and--wow--this was a great premiere. I had no idea such a good show was sitting on my DVR! Hopefully the next couple are as good. Check it out!
