My wife and I like this show. There are some characters that are forced (most specifically, the woman who owns the pegasus technology), but the show is certainly enjoyed so far.

Yeah! I like the show as well. I had high hopes for Revolution but it just hasn't lived up to its potential. But, The Last Resort (odd name for this TV series) is shaping up to a very good show. I just hope that ABC doesn't up and cancel it after two or three episodes.

The ratings took a pretty good drop last night.

They really need to move this show stat if they want to save it.

I was hoping the writing would a little less "dramatic" in week two. It's a fun show but just a little over the top.

I watched both eps last night. I like it. It did move fast, so I'm trying to figure everything out character wise. Never really watched a military show or movie, so all of this is new to me.

Never, ever?

[KilloWertz]

Still not worried about the ratings unless they continue to dip at that rate. They still aren't bad yet.

I am enjoying this show. The second Episode wasn't as strong as the first IMO but I did it enjoy it all the same.

Will be Interesting see where they take this.

The demo system is just really weird. I mean I get what advertisers r looking for but still. Here's the 10 pm ratings from Monday.

Actual people watching.

Castle 10.562 million
Hawaii five-0 9.006 million
Revolution 8.206 million

Demo rating

Revolution 3.1/8
Castle 2.2/6
Hawaii five-0 2.2/6

So those extra 2 million people watching Castle were what? Troglodytes? Shut-ins? It just odd. Ud think all three shows would have a similar demo.

It's hard to enjoy when the season ends with a cliffhanger that never has a chance to be answered a la Alcatraz.

I can understand Revolution appealing to a slightly younger crowd than either Castle or Hawaii Five-O, but it is still a little odd that Revolution is able to handily beat them both in that. Not that I'm complaining though since I'm glad to see Revolution's continued success given the history with sci-fi on network TV.

Of the three I also watch Revolution tho I am finding it frustrating. Detective/Police shows rarely appeal to me so it's a no brainer. I just find them repetitive. But the skewing on Revolution must be huge to make up for 20% fewer viewers and still have a demo almost a full point higher.

Last Resorts problem is X Factor and Big Bang Theory pretty much split the key demo.

Well, I don't think we have to worry about this series getting an early cancellation because Shawn Ryan also helmed "The Unit" with Robert Patrick and he really made that series a success. I think they'll give this series some leeway before making a decision on what to do with it.

I'm actually looking forward to the third episode wrapping up the subplot regarding those two missing officers, which we last saw in the back of that van in the first episode.

[xander]

I enjoyed tonight's episode quite a bit. It can get a bit campy, but still solid tv. I like the different factions that come into play. Also glad they got Robert Patrick out of the cage. He's such a solid actor and presence plus you just KNOW that guy's going to get to scheming immediately. So far a fan. I'm not expecting this to be the next best show on tv, but for Prison Break style escapism entertainment, I hope it sticks around.

[i007spectre]

I am calling this my favorite new show of the fall season. Strange considering I had no interest in seeing it in the beginning.

[kemcha]

This series is definitely taking on a strange turn and adding even more conspiracies within the series. I was wondering exactly how they were going to bring the COB back in but now we have it and there's definitely going to be tension between the XO and the COB ... I laughed at that remark, "there's an old saying, don't let the COB sabotage the boat".

It definitely is a 180 degree turn from his role on The Unit.

Ratings dropped again

Not crazy about what they r trying with the Sam/Sophie quasi relationship. With Christine being put thru hell at home trying to support him it really makes Sam look smarmy

[Blu Ian]

**** the ratings, I love this show.

Love the thin red line music at the end.

[kemcha]

Have to say, I love this series better than I like Revolution.
