The newest baby brainchild of Joss Whedon.

:bounce:

I've seen the first two episodes - and really like it. The concept is intriguing - I'd really like to see more into what goes on when they "combine" personalities together in order to make a new one... and where do they get these personalities from?

Topher (the rather geeky programmer - possibly evil) is my favorite character so far. Go figure. :teehee: I'm predicting that he will get all the quotable lines. He was also the initial hook for me when watching... I mean, a guy who programs personalities? Very mysterious.

So far, my favorite Topher lines have been: "Anything for you. Because I love you. Deep, deep man love." And, "You're in the middle of Why-Would-Anyone-Want-To-Be-There?"

So... I know this is a little early yet... but anyone else intrigued? Watching?

I am intrigued by the idea of the show, but I haven't gotten around to watching any episodes, yet. Hopefully I will be able to soon, though! I mean, it is Joss Whedon! :teehee:

I watched the first episode, simply because it was a Joss Whedon show. It was really interesting, but I haven't seen any more. And yeah, geeky programmer = awesome.


Look at us Joss fans. We're all crazy. :P

I've only seen the first episode online as it's not aired in the UK yet. Really liked it. Absolutely LOVE Eliza Dushku. Need to get round to catching up with it.

...I really need to get some actual TV access, as opposed to merely DVD and VHS. I miss out on so many good-sounding shows...[sadness]

Reindeer: *coughHulucough*

Nurr and Raivynn: Oh, you both need to see the second episode. The first one is good... but it was slightly overwhelming in my opinion. Besides Topher... none of the characters had the 'hook' of intrigue. There was so much plot and so many characters all at once... it was just a tad rushed.

Second episode is better. Makes sense - has some amazing Topher lines* - and makes you absolutely adore the characters. :D

Spoilers for third episode:

Why do you think Echo winked at Sierra?
:blink: Is Sierra possibly becoming self-aware too? And Victor... is a mess. :P I'm so confused about this whole Russian mob/mafia thing he has going on.


* IE: "We have... a situation. The kind that needs shooting at."

*ignores spoilers*

Watched episode 2 yesterday. Very good, that guy was a Grade A Nutty. Nice to see the bond between Boyd and Echo. Topher was lulz in the flashbacks about the attack by Alpha.

Gonna watch episode 3 today. I'm now officially hooked.
:-D

Eeee! The 4th ep (Gray Hour) was freakin' epic!

The philosophical art lesson - Topher's panic attack - the double Taffy's. Topher's "assistant" is amazing. Girl geek for the WIN. :yes: The whole scene about the grocery list was pure Joss Genius. And I loved his repeated, "It's not my fault!" I also loved Echo's little bond with the wounded thief guy.... that was so sweet. "He's broken... can we fix him?"

I'm with you Raivynn; officially hooked. :teehee:

Finally seen the fourth episode today. Was awesome.
Alpha is a very naughty ex-active. Tophers assistant is SO cute, I want one.
Sierra's Taffy>>>>>>>>>Echo's Taffy :P

AH! I've seen the second episode now. Alpha? Oh man, I'm so confused. I want more. And I want a Topher.


Correction. All caught up now. Gah!

Victor and the Russian Mob....I still don't get how that all ties together. And I am so curious about Alpha (especially because of the rumors of who's playing him). And what's up with Dominic?

Anyone else thing Joss ought to stop working with Fox? :P They're showing a show again on a Friday night and they made him switch around how he wanted the pilot to be. I can see a Firefly all over again.

^Yes! I'm sure he has his reasons, but I can't figure out why he would want to work with Fox again. It's like I don't want to get too involved in the show, in case it gets canceled too soon.

But, that hasn't worked out too well. I just watched the first two episodes, and I'm pretty much hooked. :teehee: And, I'll be watching more soon!

Has anyone been keeping up with this? I got a little behind, but caught up on it all today. Meaning I saw Stop Loss, The Attic, and Closer today. I....I am floored right now. I don't know what to make of stuff. Oh Boyd, Boyd.

I'm still behind but I feel like with the impending cancellation, they're rushing the story a bit. =/
