The Event
Just now catching up on this series before the show tonight.

The lead character is John Ritter's son - which I knew, but damn. This kid's eyes seem to be channeling his dad. It is EERIE how much it seems like they share a soul.

Anyone else following this series?

It is uncanny!

I think his name is Jason or Johnson Ritter?

Edit - he plays the young boyfriend of the pilot's daughter.

6. I am liking it too. I watched the first season of Lost and a few seasons of 24
This seems to be in the same general genre but with less ambiguity and less fear-based drama.

7. I never got into either one of those and then later I heard how
Edited on Mon Oct-04-10 08:09 PM by doc03
good they were after it was too late follow them. Another reason I started watching it is Ritter's girlfriend Sarah Roemer.

12. I like it, too.
I have a few minor complaints, but on the whole, I think it has potential.

I was a HUGE 'Lost' fan, and am a fan of this genre of mystery/thriller show in general, so am hoping it makes the cut and doesn't get canceled.
