Anyone else think that The Event is very similar to Lost?

Just that really..........

1.A plane

1. people thrown together by circumstance

1. mad flitting between present time and several wks/mths back

1. gorgeous rugged main actor (no complaints obviously)

Anyone else agree?

It's a bit of a mix of Lost and FlashForward, I think! I guess if it works...

(But I know I'll watch it- I'm a sucker for those kind of programmes!)

Oh yes and one more point i forgot to make...

1. It's going to be totally addictive (like Lost). Already I have set dvd to record it weekly. [sad git emoticon]

Yeah- that's the problem with this type of series: you know if you miss one episode you might as well give up! You can't really dip in and out, can you?

Becomes not so much addictive as "have to!"

I watched it last night and managed to keep up- a first for me.
How many episodes are there?

Only saw the first episode last night and I'm hoping it's on demand as I missed the first 10 minutes and the second episode. Looked very interesting, but agree that it's quite similar to Lost.

Sadly, with Lost, as the series went on we got a bit bored of having to remember the ins and outs of it all, then we missed some episodes and couldn't get back into it, so gave up.

Hope this one isn't so 'exclusive'!

I really enjoyed it and I like Blair Underwood so mmmmm

Agree though, that it shouldn't drag on like lost or I will lose interest!

And 24. And Prison Break.
