I just started watching this show and I have to admit I'm already hooked. I think it fills my post-Lost need. Anybody else watching this?

I think the first season just wrapped up but I've only seen the first 3 episodes

Yea, I watch it. Hasn't been on in awhile though, think it's coming back in a couple weeks. I hope it doesn't get canceled.

It appears season one will contain 22 episodes, they've aired 10 already and will continue March 7th with a two hour episode...

I watched the pilot and liked it :thumbsup:

reminds me a little of Flashforward, a show I loved that was canceled.

it certainly is interesting

I've watched all 10 episodes now, good series :thumbsup:

Well written and gives away a little more info during each episode....the last little tidbit they disclosed makes me hope that they renew for eps 11-22.

yeah it's not as frustrating as Lost was when you would leave with more questions after an episode but then again that's what made Lost so awesome

I was a die hard Lost fan until the end.I felt the last two seasons were cop outs considering how many cool story lines were going on.

I got the same sense as you from The Event...it was like peeling an orange, where they'd give a little more info each episode.

Wow Hal, got caught up already!

Hal-9000
02-25-2011, 10:17 PM

I can understand why some people might not get into this show
Once you find out they're aliens some people just become disinterested

Awesome, thanks for the reminder. Might have to snag the last ep we saw just to get a quick refresher.

grrrrrr...they have the same description for episode 11 and 12...I hate when they do that.

I guess I get episode 11 only :(

Pony
03-08-2011, 11:25 PM
Get both. It's a two-parter.

Hal-9000
03-08-2011, 11:44 PM
350 mb for each (one hour) but the descriptions are exactly the same...

ok, I'll go on faith :thumbsup:

Hal-9000

Watched both new episodes....really like where the story is going :thumbsup: Especially the part about Sarah's Dad

Pony
03-09-2011, 10:41 PM
Yea, I didn't see that coming as I didn't think they would be able to have children with us.

Hal-9000
03-09-2011, 10:51 PM
that poor Sean Walker....goes through absolute hell trying to find his g/f...then her little sister...then gets the bombshell dropped on him about the family in general....and then it's bye bye! :lol:

Pony
03-09-2011, 11:23 PM
Half breed or not, I'll take her!

Still not sure if he walked because he was freaked or because he didn't want her to have to choose between him and her family. Or a little of both?

I think it was the latter...he saw that she was having troubles deciding so he made the decision easier (heart of gold dude)

or

he was absolutely freaked that she was a half breed and was scared to diddle ET :lol:

Joebob034
03-10-2011, 06:47 PM
she did a shoot for Maxim, she was soooo hot in it

Hal-9000
03-10-2011, 07:03 PM
in the series...is that baby her son or did she just sorta adopt it after a job?

Joebob034
03-10-2011, 07:10 PM
In an earlier episode they flashed back to a job she had where she was supposed to kill everyone in this house. There was a baby in a crib and she was supposed to kill it, but she kept it instead and had to hide it so no one would know.

Hal-9000
03-10-2011, 07:16 PM
that's what I recall...it wasn't really hers

I liked the way Sean used the pic of the kid as leverage at one point :thumbsup:

Taylor Cole back last night :cheerlead: Kinda of eerie with the talk of nuclear meltdowns in the episode considering what's going on in Japan

Hal-9000
03-15-2011, 09:06 PM
How about starting to watch Hereafter, which opens with a huge Tsunami scene...then hearing about Japan the next day.

I still haven't finished the movie...

Hal-9000

Hal-9000
03-23-2011, 05:33 PM
watched the latest...for some reason the past two episodes haven't really done much for me

I do like that Blair Underwood's character has finally grown a pair :thumbsup:

Joebob034

I think your show has been canceled for next season Pony.

Hal-9000
05-18-2011, 10:58 PM
The Event became a Non Event :(

Pony
05-18-2011, 11:38 PM
Yea, it got the axe. I posted a thread on cancellations right below this one.

At the end of the last episode they have released a virus to decimate the humans and also have opened a portal to bring their people here, I think we're fucked.

Hal-9000
