I almost gave up with the pilot. But it seemed like each episode was progressively a little better. I agree on the urgency point, although I don't think that plays with the kind of saccharine sentimentality they seem to want to throw in sometimes, the kind of stuff I've associated with CBS earlier in the thread - the "Jericho" moments, I think of them - like the dinner scene at the end of an episode a few weeks back.
It just doesn't strike me as the kind of show that's ever really going to have that kind of....gravity. Which is okay. Not everything has to be dark.
Although maybe they'll surprise me tonight with some kind of BSG-style twist/cliffhanger.
I do like that I'm not sure what's going to happen, and that I have a feeling the attack on the....whatever that structure is might not go well.
