Watched the pilot tonight. It was decent but the story line is so over done. Plot to kill president while he's in surgery.

I don't see how this show could go a full season with the family held up in the house. I'll keep watching but I bet this show is the first to get cut this fall.

I agree, it is not a bad show, but been there done that way to many times. I also don't see how they could stretch it out over a whole season, let alone multiple seasons.

You'd think injecting the president with medication that wasn't even meant for him would be grounds enough to chose another hospital.

Yes. I have mixed feelings about it. First off I guess Agent Carlyle's motivation for participating has something to do with the treatment of his wife's cancer or whatever it is she has. The whole plan they have continues to go awry and there are just way too many holes in it. There are so many things either one of the family members could have done to save themselves. And Carlyle talking to the girls baby daddy sending him packing. Part of that was him getting the kid away from the house but part of it is him defending the daughter. These kidnappers are getting way to close to their hostages no way they'll be able to shoot them when the time comes.

Described as doing the wrong thing for the right reasons and them lines getting blurred between good and evil when reading the plot on airmen.

So you think they become as attached to them as a dog lover holding a puppy?

I wouldn't go that far but when/if the time comes to pull the trigger it'll make it that much harder unless you're a psychopath.

Can't believe they couldn't find a leading actress that doesn't look like a tranny.

I'm going to keep watching till it's cancelled but this show couldn't get more predictable and pathetic. Just call the secret service and tell them your family is being held hostage already.

Didn't want to say, but since you've put it out in the Universe she is really difficult on the eyes. The neck down she is not bad. When you head north man you want to grab a paper bag.

Yep, and last night the kids escaped only for the idiot pot smoking son to call home. Yep they traced the call and found them. I'm trying to give this one a chance, but it's not looking good.

Doesn't look like this show is going to survive. Dylan McDermott has been cast in another CBS pilot.

I don't see where they could even go with the story line. While it's not been officially cancelled or renewed that final episode was a fair series finale that tied up all the important aspects of the show.
