Just a reminder for anyone who fancies watching it. I'm away from home at the mo, so please don't post any spoilers!

Sky are due to show it in the Autumn, no date yet. I guess they'll try to keep the air date close to US, Lost was only a couple of days behind, and new series of Glee is only a day or 2 behind US.

Typical cliched rubbish attempting to have the appeal of Lost but achieving none of it. Full of stupid dialogue and cliches, some really annoying characters (they need to kill off the son sharpish!) and laughable creature effects.

The premise is fairly interesting, but I have a feeling Braga will run this into ground with more soap opera plotting.

The ratings were underwhelming too so I wouldn't expect this to stick around for very long.

I enjoyed it...on the whole the characters were warm, I agree about the son tho..pain in the ass and after the utter slagging that primeval got for its sfx, well i didnt think this was any better and that surprised me given the (i would imagine) superior budget they got...

well watched the first two episodes lat night, and have to say thoroughly enjoyed it... Jurassic Park meets Stargate...

slightly weak start with the third child storyline leading to prison, and the escape... but can see it developing nicely...

Cant quite place what i have seen Taylor in previously though?

I'm going to give this a go, it can't be any worse than that awful Spielberg rubbish.

Thought it was ok. But my expectations were pretty low.

Enjoyable enough romp if you manage to wade through the cliches, schmaltz. and lack of originality.

This is a Spielberg thing isn't it Rob? Or is it just a very loose association with him?

I thought it was ok and worth sticking with for now.

Think it was the filming methods etc and the people involved but it did remind me heavily of BSG.
