Has anybody seen this show yet? I say it last week (the pilot) and this week and I must say the show has potential. It follows through with Carter's theme of dark storylines, which seem to work. I enjoy his shows, but I never saw any of Millenium. What are your comments on the show?
That is the single most frightening thing I have ever heard. And just in time for Halloween, too.

I thought the pilot and Leviathen were really good. It seems after the second episode that the show will have a continuous arc in every episode, unlike Carters previous shows (which have a mixture of arc and stand-alone episodes), so it will be very interesting to see where they take the story line from here.
I like the characters so far as well. Hobbes has already proven he has flaws (he can be quite an idiot sometimes) to balance his good points as well. And I liked the Lance Henrikson and Gillian Anderson (voice only) cameos

Don't forget Santiago himself. He was in a few X-Files eps, as well as the movie.
Quite true, although he played a larger role in Millennium as the recurring character Peter Watts.

I watched it. And will continue to. My only gripe is that it's sort of like The Matrix. Virtual world in which real people live in. I'm sure you can see the other similaries.
On a personal side note I just know soon people are gonna start asking me if I based my name off the main character in this show.

Wish he would get rid of "le petit moustache". Get a big fat beard instead.

I must admit that I definitely thought of The Matrix when I was watching the premiere, but aside from the fact that both involve a computer generated vitual reality, and the allussions to Hobbes being some kind of "chosen one" who will bring an end to the Harsh Realm and Santiago, the two are actually fairly different. And, depending on where they take the show from here, I think the differences will grow with time.
