Based off that alone, I can see it finishing like this in the timeslot

1) Dancing with the Stars
2) Two and a Half Men/Mike and Molly
3) The Event
4) Lone Star

Lone Star has a strong lead-in with House. As great as Chuck is, it's never been that stong ratings-wise. And NBC is still in the toilet. So Lone Star has a good chance of beating The Event.

Very interested in this one. I hope it's good, although I don't need more to watch on Monday's.

A reverse episode. Seinfeld already did this.

^How about 2 days earlier? Or 4 months earlier?

All these time jumps are definitely annoying.

Have you thought about writing things down so you can keep up? ;)

So far it's Lost without the sense of mystery and 24 without the focus.

awesome.

I'm starting to feel like they should've had a 2 hour pilot, I understand they want to introduce characters but I want more of what the event is.

This show was all over the place! Way too many time jumps, and the ending completely ruined it for me. I was really hoping there wouldn't be any sci-fi.

RichC2 09-20-10 09:07 PM

Re: The Event -- New Series -- "Pilot" -- 09/20/10
 
that goofy bit of
Spoiler:
CG and teleportation
just killed this franchise. Plus lack of caring for characters, plus lack of forward momentum, plus goofy ... yeah this might last 13 eps.

Seriously, the most interesting part was the super cliche "my xxxxx is missing and you don't believe me!" bit on the cruise, it was also the only part that stayed put for longer than 30 seconds.
