THE EVƎNT

Code:
When an average guy stumbles upon a secret so powerful it could change the course of humanity, and a cover-up so big that the President is on a need-to-know basis, answers can only lead to bigger questions. The Event Mondays this Fall on NBC. For more go to www.nbc.com/the-event

Quote:
The series is a thriller, love story, and mystery with an element of science fiction. Producers promised timely answers to mysteries, with some answers provided as early as the second episode. Executive producer Evan Katz stated that "everything is designed to answer questions so you're not frustrated or feeling like we're making it up as we go along" and the writers intend to keep the viewers guessing in a "fair way."

The synopsis sounds pretty... meh, but yeah the trailer looked decent. Definitely would be good to have some new shows to watch along with the already established shows (I regularly watch only a handful; Sons of Anarchy, Dexter, South Park, Big Bang Theory, House and Breaking Bad).

This seem to be about some captured Aliens that are in captivity by the CIA or some time travels from the future that have come to the past to advise mankind about a specific event.

As long as it's not another Lost - where it felt like the writers themselves had no fucking clue to what half the mysteries ment or why it was that way. And with so much open-ended material that was supposedly to be "interpreted by yourself" that it seemed improvised sometimes...

But that's just me I guess..

huh? I liked heroes and did not mention it once in my post. But I did think this trailer was nothing special at all. So thats why I asked. No need to act like an idiot just cos I asked you.

So you didn't think it was good and therefore it's a ridiculous concept that others do?

I wasn't. I was acting defensive because I constantly get shit from people on here for liking stuff they don't Wink

Just cos you have met a couple of people who disagre with you and act like idiots you take it out on me? Enough with the assuming already...

I never said it was ridiculous (I did say that I thought it was nothing special..correct me if im wrong, but thats not the same thing), - i was just suprised on how exited you got. Not really often people say its the best thing they've said in their life and thats why I thought you were kidding.

Edit: I also have no idea why you brought Heroes into the discussion.

Urgh, I never said it was the best thing I'd ever seen. I said a TRAILER has never gotten me as interested in something before. Huge difference Wink As for Heroes? It's a pretty cast-iron fact that the majority on here despised the show and I took constant shit any time I posted in that thread Razz

I know you ment the trailer as the series not started yet..so no need to be a smart arse. Wink

But you still assume too much. It's not like if everyone here has bothered to remember your opinion on heroes. Just like with everyone else. Smile

But since you mention Heroes - i personally loved the first season...the second one started ok but went so much downhill that I never bothered with the third one.

I know the commercials are uber annoying and I hardly ever watch any television anymore.

"We may have a problem, he's going to tell them about the event."

I'm bout ready to throw stones I'm so sick of hearing this...

By the way the latest commercial it looks like a 9/11 iteration or similar.

Terry O'Quinn has signed on to star in NBC's new show The Event, starting this fall.

Quinn, best known for his role as John Locke on the ABC hit series Lost, will take on the role of a mysterious government official who will act as a guide of sorts to the show's protagonist Thomas (played by Clifton Collins). But he seems to know more than he's letting on...

"The Events... They all happen for a reason. When I was presented with the pilot script as well as the makers' ideas for where they want to go from there, I just knew I wanted to do this. The role I will be playing is a chance to do something new for me, personally, and to work with some of the best people in the business. It's really a fantastic show and a fantastic opportunity."

It is unknown at this time whether Quinn's role will be part of the main cast or a recurring guest role.

Has tons of 9/11 and twin tower imagery throughout. Will give it a try when the time comes, but I dont expect anything special

It looks terrible, the trailer somehow reminds me of flash forward Neutral Still waiting for a sci-fi half as good as Taken, not repeated shit spewn out by Syfy and similiar crackden channels.

Taken was really bad like most sci-fi shows i've watched. Only good sci-fi show i've watched is BSG, at least the only one i can think of Smile I kind of liked Lost (havent watched the latest 2 seasons though).

This trailer looked decent, lots of different locations at least, and i like that Wink the "love story" part makes me puke a bit though..
