I caught that too BD. Made me shout out load & bring my wife running into the room to see what was going on.

I loved the show. Characters were good, story great, not too gory. Dark just like promised.

I'll be there until they shut her down.

Yep, I'll be there, too. I hope F*X at least gets through all 13 of the made episodes. Based on Tim's previous experience with F*X, I'm sure they'll tell a complete story, just in case the axe falls.

Oh, and I watched my tape this morning and saw the W&H reference. Very clever.

Also, did anyone think that when Web tells Rebecca at the end, "That's my good girl.", that it was a reference back to the "Serenity" pilot when Kaylee said those exact words to Serenity? Or was it just a coincidence?

This show is *extremely* promising based on last night's airing.

All I needed was a lanky, awkwardly handsome FBI agent who works on The X-Files and his scrappy red-headed partner to come strolling in to make the show even better. Some of the sets actually look a lot like The X-Files FBI sets, too. Props to the other exec producer, Howard Gordon, who worked on The X-Files for that I hope. It should be interesting to see how they handle FBI procedures for profiling.

Y'know what I was most grateful for? The fact that they didn't dumb down the script for us. Using the term "UnSub" to describe the Unknown Subject and Web shooting the suspect...the law allows it (even though, like in this case, it might be considered murder) if a federal agent's life is in jeopardy.

I'll also be with the show until the DVDs come out.

I thought it was pretty good.

I like the interaction of the boss and his team. Should be interesting to see how he uses them through the series.

Adam seemed like he was in a very Jayne like role. He didn't seem as um....intelligence challenged as Jayne though. Which would have been bad for an FBI agent.

Rachel Nichols is so smoking hot. When I saw her in dumb and dumberer I was an instant fan. Little did I know she can act too. I thought she did a really good job of acting.

I'll be sticking around to see where this one goes.

You know it never occured to me that it might be a nod to Kaylee's line from "Serenity", but it might very well be.

Tim Minear was also a writer on The X-Files for a while.

I thought the show was very well done. Cast and script were both good. I think the show has a lot of potential. Hope it stays around for a while. But the fact that it finished fourth in it's time slot last night does not bode well. If you like the show you better spread the word. We all know fox does not have a good track record with keeping quality shows around when the ratings are not immediately there (Arrested Development notwithstanding). I'll keep watching with my fingers crossed.

And Tim was a story editor for The X-Filesas well, working on some of the better Season 5 episodes. I did know that, but Mr. Minear is much more well-known for his contributions for Angel and Firefly. In any case, at least we'll have an interesting, dark show for as long as it lasts.

Didn't like it as much as I hoped to, but I think I over-hyped myself! I'll surely keep watching; I expect it will get better.
I'm glad everyone else seemed to like it! Lends credence to the theory that I was just in a wonky mood or something.

I definitely enjoyed the show and will watch it again next week. Definitely loved the "Damn I did it backwards."
