The Last Resort

[thisisbone]

Finally saw the premiere episode last night and looooooooved it. Like, I'm going to watch it again because some of it flew past me and I want to really get it before this week's ep. Mr. Bone says there's no way they'll be able to maintain the quality over the long haul, but of the new stuff we've watched, it was far and away our favorite

I'm intrigued. Seems more like a plot line for a summer block buster but I'm hopeful. I need to watch the pilot again too because I definitely missed some details.

I read the TWOP recap, which at least helped provide some names -- always a help!

Yup! Best new show of the season.

[thisisbone]

Agreed! Hope it continues as it started!

I watched the pilot and I'm not entirely sold. It seems slightly too dramatic for my tastes. I'll give it another try, though, just to be sure I'm not missing something awesome!

I don't mind drama, but I don't like melodrama, a la Grey's Anatomy staging a plane crash. Really?

So to me, it skirted the right side of the line.

Just saw it on Friday and I LOVED IT! Loved, loved, loved it! I see a lot of people say, "great pilot, but where do you go from there?" but to me it wasn't so much about the actions as a study in leadership and the ways that all plays out and that's where I see it playing out.

Mmmm, yes, it's probably hitting my competence kink, isn't it? Like, Scott Speedman's character mashed a few of my buttons with his tightrope walk between being an underling to Chaplin and an overling to Shepard. Hot! ;)

Of all the new dramas I've tried, Last Resort is definitely the one I liked the most. But I agree with Mr. Bone - don't see how they hell they can keep up the premise for a season, much less more than that. ;)
