7. I can't stand lost
It reminds me of how South park thinks Family Guy episodes are made. Just throw out a bunch of non-sequiter plots and call them twists.

14. Not to mention Curb Your Enthusiasm.
And a new series of Peep Show!

It's going to be sitcom nirvana!

19. I just did some reading up on it.
I really don't see where they have a plot, other than "let's kill as many people as we can in the most imaginative ways possible" and then aftermath survival. The premise of knowing your future six months down the road won't be nearly as important as getting food. The transportation industry will be wrecked. Think Katrina on a global scale :(

I really don't get into all these death and destruction plots and stories, so I likely won't be watching. At least with the Stargate Universe, I get some fantastic adventure and exploration :)

4. I'm really looking forward to V....I remember the series and the movie
which was also made for T.V. My biggest concern is what they'll do with the characters

6. I hope they make the lead a stronger woman than the first series.
If Elizabeth is in that role, she should nail it.

15. Republicans do not equate political party membership to compassion.
