I know this show is ridiculous, but I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Love all the twists, and they're doing a great job of keeping it tense.

It's a crime that the ratings for this show have been so dismal. I enjoyed this episode and the teaser for the rest of the season looked pretty intense.

Stupid move for the family to try to run.

Instead of trying to get away on a bus, they should have gone to CNN or some other news station with their story. The mother is famous enough to the point where the American public will freak out if she doesn't perform surgery on the prez. She even knows the identity of Mr FBI, too. And for insurance, dump this shit all over the internet before walking through CNN's door... facebook, twitter, Youtube, etc.

Even if they were just running, they should have dumped all of this information everywhere they could before getting on the bus.

That was a little strange to show a preview for next week and then include various clips from the rest of the season.

I will assume they did that because the ratings have not been great. It's their way of letting people know that it does get good over time. If this is the reason they did it then I ain't mad at 'em.

Yep, good show to watch at the end of a long day. Your brain can rest easily, but you have a lot of fun.

They are put in a situations that you, the spectator, know won't work, other way the show is done. But, IMHO, they are doing a great work in those scenes showing some plausibility. Also, the acting has been really good. It seems all the actors, with a few exceptions of course, are really into it.

But yeah, I could see the son doing a dumb move from a long distance.

I'm enjoying this ride as well. Fun, turn off your brain and "go with it" television. I hope it survives the season.
