Did this ever get better ?

I'm still enjoying it.

Personally, I like the show fine, but the science behind this

[Show spoiler]

or whatever it is supposed to be, is vague at best. I still don't have the foggiest idea if Peter Farragut made it, or even what "it" is. I haven't watched last Friday's episode yet, and maybe it offers more explanation, but I wish they would go into a bit more detail as to what exactly is going on.

Wife and I are really digging it, and wondering where it's going to go.

Will probably be hard to make a multi season show with just the base as setting though, so it's probably going to expand at some point.
So far liking the mix of Resident Evil, The Thing and 28 days later...

This being said, you just have to wonder how Farragut assembled such a team of backstabbing morons that won't tell him what's happening in his back until it's too late.
Appreciating the human drama though, definite sign of Moore's involvement.

Also, the elevator music was bothering me a little at first, but now I find it deliciously off and creepy

PS: Holy smokes! I knew I had seen the actor playing Dr Hatake (Hiroyuki Sanada) before.... He had a lead role in the hilariously campy 1978 Star Wars rip-off "San Ku Kai" (as known in Europe) or "Message from Space" in the US.
That is downright awesome

If you have a chance check out the french title for the show on youtube, it's worth its weight in pure latinum

He also was outstanding as the Captain of the Icarus II (Kaneda) in Sunshine.
