Idk if its threadworthy but just saw this trailer for a new TV series and it seems pretty interesting. Plus Fez from 70's show is playing in it:

Looks interesting, but I think this would work better as a movie or a condensed mini-series. These suspense shows that (seem to) rely more on gimmicks instead of real character development usually fail when drawn out and are cancelled before the show gets anywhere, like FlashForward and The Event to name a recent few.

This. I hope they wont ruin an interesting psychological series by including way too much action and no character development.

Yeah, The Event was exactly what came to mind. I really liked that show, I was really bummed when it got cancelled.

Just watched it, pretty good imo. I like how they didn't fuck it up by him becoming a super crime solver. If i was him i'd try to stay up all night, find the same shrinks in both dreams, film myself while sleeping or something like that. Expecting to see a lot of fan theories on this show too.

Definitely looks like movie material more than a show. I can't take Fez seriously...

This show is awesome. Just watched it on demand. I like they make small connections between lives but not drastic ones. I will defiantly watch the second episode.

The end got awesome when he was like "I am not making progress"

Anyone watch the first season other than me? If you haven't I highly recommend taking the time and watching the entire season. It is a great new show. I just watched the finale OnDemand and holy shit it was crazy. I wanted to see what other people thought about the end...

SPOILER ALERT.
















WTF was that. He just walked out the door into his house and there's his family? I thought when he was walking through the door he was basically gaining the ability to switch back and forth between lives whenever he wanted... Then he sees his family and I was confused... Thoughts?
