An eccentric genius forms an international network of super-geniuses to act as the last line of defense against the complicated threats of the modern world.


looks good so far, quite funny in places :D
 
I saw the trailer on Youtube a few months ago and it does look quite interesting (although I don't really feel like I need to watch the pilot as I can pretty much tell you what happens start to finish just from watching the trailer! :p)

As always though, I don't generally like picking up on new series straight away because as soon as I find something I like, the damned Americans cancel the 2nd series!!!! :mad:
 
I'm with you, StevieP. I tend to let a show go through its first series and if it gets a second series and/or doesn't end on a cliffhanger that will never be resolved, then I'll watch it.
My current 'wait and see' in Gotham.
 
Liked the look of it, unfortunately as already mentioned i'm wary of getting into anything to much from the US until it has at least a couple of seasons under it's belt, but i normally catch pilots to see if its worth setting a reminder for in the future.

loved the comment at the start
"i only wanted the space shuttle blue print to put on my wall"
:D

wasn't to sure about the spoiler, but thought better safe than sorry, as some people can get a bit arsey :).

Just watched and liked it. Supposedly there were loads of technical errors but they went over my head and i enjoyed the fast pace of the pilot.

So, so, so, so, so, so many errors :D I know show producers want "excitement" but for the love of God use some actual common sense when coming up with stories -

All, and I mean every last second of any of the Aircraft stuff was utter rubbish, tripe, bilge water, unfettered crap!

That was enough for me to stop watching. I think it would probably be a good setup but I fear that the god-awful screenwriting will make me rage at the drivel I'd have to wade through for the 5minutes per episode that would be good.
 
This series was dumb. I don't see why they had to add the artistic child in there and all the little tips they had for him. I had to turn it off.

So stupid the guy says that he could wipe the agents identity within an hour, wow what a threat. Then they are speaking to the pilot on the phone and they cleared the run way but they want to download the software while it flies above the plane, ridiculous. Why not just land the plane.

Got to be the one of the dumbest series i have seen.

Pretty sure at some point they actually mentioned the runway was too small for the planes to land. Otherwise it would have been a pretty obvious error.
 
Ep. 2 was better because it revealed a lot more about the characters and some of their history rather than being so 'in your face' like the first episode. It's growing on me slowly. Which means it will probably be cancelled.
