I got burned by Jericho so I didn't plan on watching, but when I heard JB was in it, thought I might give it a shot. Did you watch? Worth it?

I watched the first hour before going to bed. I really liked it, they set up some interesting characters and situations. Some of it was a bit cliche/easily predicted but at the same time the acting and characters made up for it.

The Alien Makeup and Language is very reminiscent of Farscape but it's by Rockne S. O'Bannon so that makes total sense.

I saw it. Have to admit it didn't clang a big bell for me as I watched. The aliens are a bit cheesy so I kept thinking another cheap-o series from SyFy. And it also reminded me of the western alien genre of which Whedon comes to mind so that was bumming me out. But when I got up this morning I was thinking about the characters and finding I wanted more. I especially liked the Dad/alien daughter combo, the doc, and the lawkeeper's deputy. Villains don't typically do anything for me especially the cliche maniacal planning thing, so I doubt I'll ever warm up to those characters. But I plan to give it more time.

It took me three tries to get through the first episode, so you know, not a good sign. I'll try the second episode, but it had better grab me right off.

I have the first 5 episodes (or however many) in my Hulu queue, and I plan to catch up on the show this weekend. I'm not a fan of Julie Benz, even if she has a good first name. I'd be watching for Grant Bowler, though, who is quite lovely. *sigh*
