Been watching. Has a few weak points, but all in all not horrible.

Looks interesting, I'll check it out!

The most "meh" review ever, folks.

[Alluveal]

It's getting better . . . and better . . . and really fucking creepy (which is good).



My theory is that there are "useful" clones and not-so-useful clones. Maybe the useful ones are capable of reproduction.

Either way, things are unfolding nicely now.

Forced to watch because of the wife.
I saw the preview. Knew what I was in store for the first 2 episodes. "Oh no, someone is killing us off, what to do?"
******Go to the News Media, and police! Most killers don't like thier targets getting protection.
Just like the new Beauty and the Beast. Reporter asks, "So why is the military after you?" Beast replies "Cause I they made me able to do this" Roar! Happy ending.

Watched the first show. Drama for drama's sake. 2nd episode..snore. Started watching you tube videos. Wife got pissy when I repeated "Go to the press, go to the press" every commercial break. Reguardless of freak women...I'm still betting Government, or Business conspiracy that would run away like cockroches when light shown on them.

[Alluveal]

Yeah, so they run to the media and BOOM! Show over!

Bad writing.

(Even if it makes sense)

And who's to say they don't own the media, whoever they are.

LOL, truth. I should have typed more because I'm actually diggin the show. I have to give credit to that girl, she switches persona's pretty well. Good enough that I actually looked the show up on IMDB to see if she was a twin.

For Tax:

ERMEGERD WATCH THIS SHOW!!!

[Taxious]

I watched the first 3 episodes of this last night and am ready for more. It does feel like they are setting up for some generic government conspiracy plot, although I hope it's more unique than that. We'll see!

[Alluveal]

Yeah, I like it. I don't care if it's a gov't conspiracy thing. It's awesome. And the foster brother always make me LOL.

[Taxious]

The dead cop's boyfriend always makes me

[Harlowe]

Okay, I love this show, we did a marathon of it Sunday - not on purpose, it was just good enough to keep moving to the next one. The lead character is great, I love how effortlessly she seems to switch characters. Also she does British and American accents well enough she could be either irl - unlike Famke in Hemlock Grove, who is Anne Hathaway in "One Day" bad.

[Alluveal]

Yeah, the last episode was great. I like the pacing. None of this, "OMG, It's gonna take me an entire season to figure out I'm a CLONE while I learn how to be a cop and not get caught" bullshit.

I'm guessing two distinct groups now:

Blondie-angel/dude with ring group (where you get sewn up in some creepy, underground facility), and, corporate hot-Paul/monitor group that is probably the government-funded side of things.

I think Beth was into some heavy shit and that's why she killed herself--perhaps a turncoat for the bad-side. Hard to say.

I agree with Harlowe, though. The actress is awesome. She's been able to step in and out of characters so effortlessly. I have to say, that the soccer mom is my favorite. So uptight, but so fun to watch.

[Alluveal]

The last episode was epic. I laughed out loud at the dancefloor scene and was equally freaked out. I love it. LOVE It.

This actress is freakin' killer amazing. She is nailing each and every clone. You just look at her and know who she's supposed to be.

[Alluveal]

To be CHEERFUL AND GAY!

[Freecare Spiritwise]

Two episodes in and we're hooked. Thanks I guess. Another thing to watch haha. But it's great. Low budget, and a little bit camp, but great. It's definitely not New York, and they seem to randomly lose the British accents. That aint American money, either. But even with the cheesiness we're still digging on it. Thanks for twisting my arm, LuLu

[Alluveal]

It gets better. Wait until the craft glue-gun torture scene.

[Freecare Spiritwise]

I've seen those different links at the bottom of several of these spam posts. My guess is that these sites (mostly blogs?) are paying a company to spam links and boost their SEO with shitloads of back-links. I don't think these assholes are giving Google analytics enough credit. It's tempting to shell out a few hundred bucks and watch your Alexa ranking go up, but it's higher risk than reward IMHO.

[Alluveal]

Hot DAMN, what an awesome finale. I love the break-neck pacing of this show.

Death by FELT ANGEL! Perfect.

[Minute]

Didn't understand why she let that bitch choke? That was weird. When she first paused at pushing the button I thought she might try & make her say she was the monitor, but then she just let her die... dafuq?

[Harlowe]

That whole scene was pretty weird....

Hidden Information!

I don't know how she's going to live with that. Especially when/if she finds out she wasn't even her monitor, that her husband is.
