Vanished - 2 and out for me

I usually wait for 3, but I can't stomach any more after

record hunter...

That...doesn't make sense.

last night. It was so bad it was laughable.

JXStern...

Yeah, I was halfway interested after #1, but #2 has pretty well lost
me. I'm no 24 fan, and this is obviously based on a similar template,
but Vanished seems to have memes from Alias also, too many twists and
subplots and characters and pending mysteries, but they have failed to
get us interested in any of the characters, insufficient T&A, and the
plot (missing woman whose own husband doesn't know her, or does he?)
isn't cataclysmic enough to be a hook of its own. I don't even grok
the lead character, the FBI guy, they should have got David Caruso,
heh.

nospam...

I didn't watch, but I wonder how many episodes will
air before FOX pulls the show??? *IF* it stays on the
air, baseball is going to interrupt the show "mid-story".

Howard U. Dewing...

Watched the first one. Kept me involved. A number of familiar actors,
from 24, ER and now, NYPD Blue. But I gave up too. All too
conspiratorial, convoluted and improbable. Guy gets blown up in a
tunnel, nearly dies, and a few minutes later is back at the office in
the same shirt and tie?

Hunter Rose...

OhMy*GHOD*! THAT'S *IT*!!!!!

The secret of the series is...

...

THEY'RE ALL IN THE MATRIX!!!!!!

Sorry for spoiling it for all of you. (And all without
watching a single moment...)

record hunter...

There's no reason to discuss it with you. I'm not even completely
reading what you wrote. You don't like anything. You don't even think
videotaping/Tivoing is a valid form of TV watching.

record hunter...

You really don't think it's worth it to discuss 99% of TV with you, do
you? I mean, you hate EVERYTHING.

record hunter...

why? i like it fine.

David...

I'm giving it a few more weeks but to me it lacks tension because it's
likely that Sara isn't going to be found until the finale and it's too
convoluted to enjoy the journey there. The bad guys are prescient,

GarondoMarondo...

I don't think it lacks tension, and I've found Mimi Leder's direction
darn pretty, and the show looks very good, but you have a point with
the convoluted, at times I find the show a bit hard to follow but hope
things will become clearer eventually.

Also, Gale Harold's Agent Graham Kelton seems to have the absolute
worst luck.

..
Garondo Marondo!

anyone who knows anything talks cryptically; it's already playing like
"X-Files" season 6 after only two episodes.

ravenlynne...

I think it's a good show..I'll keep watching.

Pidge...

I'm still watching.
