Maybe it's just me, but I enjoy the heck out of this show. Certainly more than the other summer sci-fi options such as "Under the Dome" and "Falling Skies."
Lexa Doig is one unbelievably sexy woman, too.

How bizarre. For some reason DirecTV didn't catch this for me yesterday. 1st time it's missed it. I'll get the reair, but that's not until next week.

I was surprised that they got the whole Arc sphere together in this episode. I expected them to obtain the separate pieces more gradually.

Wow! Really great episode.
I really like how they are opening the show, gradually, not too slow, not too fast.
It's a show that can risk being too dumb at times (they have avoided that so far!), but they make changes in the plot just at the right time.

Good episode. I can't quite grasp where they're going with Julian though. They go back and forth between making him look sympathetic and then looking like a monster.
Was the shot at the end supposed to indicate Escher getting a hold of the Arc technology? Not sure I understood how. He still doesn't have any piece of the arc, just info downloaded from it onto that memory stick or whatever it was that Emily pretended to destroy.

Was late getting to this past episode.
Good episode, but felt heavy.
They are taking a long time to address the Gardner murder from several weeks ago. Crazy how people chalk stuff off.
Seems like a lot of motivations are becoming more blurry. Alec seems a little more sinister, Thesus is still murky, but Kellogg seems like he's up to more than he has led on, and Escher is getting supper creepy.
So Escher is Pyron? I don't know if it has been there all along, but I noticed several Pyron building signs in the opening credits future montage.
I think it would be interesting for S3 if Kira and Carlos have to work with Liber8 to stop Escher and the Freelancers.
