Anyone else watching? I'm up to episode 10, really enjoying it.

Finished it, and loved it despite its few shortcomings, just got to wait for season 2 now. Don’t want to say much as people are still watching.

GrandTheftWalrus · 08/08/2019 18:15

Me and DP flew through it in 3 days. I thought it was very good although I still have questions!

Long wait on season 2 now.

BigRedBoat · 08/08/2019 21:41

I quite like it, it's a bit silly like a lot of these sky one original dramas are but it's one of the better ones. I hope it doesn't lose its way and trail off like flash forward and lost both did. It reminds of a programme that i think was called the 4400? Does anyone remember that?

RingtheBells · 09/08/2019 09:00

BigRedBoat I have never seen The 4400 but your post prompted me to google it and it looked good so I have ordered seasons 1 and 2 DVDs off Ebay for the grand sum of £3.16, if it is good I will get the other 2 seasons even though it appears from reviews not to end...

Aridane · 09/08/2019 09:04

Ooh - I liked 4400!

But did it ever finish or was it just not recommissioned and we were left hanging?

Aridane · 09/08/2019 09:04

Also- anyone remember ‘Flash Forward’?

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 09/08/2019 09:08

I really really wanted to like this, but I just don't.

It's all so earnest and the lead actress is from the Elizabeth Keen (Blacklist) school of perma-frowning at everything which gets on my tits.

I am 3 episodes in which is usually my yes/no threshold.

RingtheBells · 09/08/2019 09:33

I remember 'Flash Forward', it was another favourite which was cancelled, my all time favourite series of this sort of thing though was 'The Event' which was also left hanging so obviously a lot of people didn't enjoy it as much as me.

I found that Manifest did get particularly good from about episode 12 after a bit of a dull bit in the middle

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/08/2019 10:58

loving this watching it weekly so only on e2

jigsawmaniac · 09/08/2019 22:48

I've watched it all. It's my sort of thing and easy to binge on when I had time. I also liked Flashforward. It was the first American series I really got into and then it was cancelled!

TheZeppo · 10/08/2019 08:41

Ohhhh whoever said it is too earnest has just explained what I dislike about it!

I’m on Ep 4 and may give up.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 10/08/2019 10:49

Oh jesus how many episodes are there? If it had been like 8, I might have persevered, but if its 12 and counting, I may as well cut my losses now. Same as Flashforward - another one I wanted to like but just didn't 'catch' with me. And Orphan Black too. Maybe it's me!

You're welcome Grin

Wasn't expecting that at all!

BigRedBoat · 10/08/2019 18:17

One thing that is bugging me, I know they are adjusting to 2018 but why do they have such old school phones? Surely flip phones peaked around 2006?

Hadenoughofitall441 · 11/08/2019 23:23

I watched the first 3 episodes when it aired in us back in September, for whatever reason I couldn’t watch any more but prayed it came over here. Just finished tonight..
Totally hooked, can’t believe the bastards are making us wait. Season 2 not back till 2020☹️

Watched the finale yesterday. Omg.
What a cliff hanger!

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/08/2019 22:19

Anyone still watching at real time pace

So e3 tonight

Or have all binged

FlowerTink · 14/08/2019 22:19

LOVED it, very excited for Season 2! Just wish the wait wasn't so long!

Agree with PP about the 4400 too, definitely reminded me of that.

MadeForThis · 14/08/2019 22:22

On episode 12 so good to know it gets better. Easy watching but not guessing what's coming next.

BobLobLawLLB · 14/08/2019 22:54

Enjoying it so far. Only put it in the planner as Robert Zemeckis is behind it, I like most things he's done.

The brother reminded me of someone, I think it was Michelle's son in Coronation St (the DJ)?

PollyPelargonium52 · 25/08/2019 12:16

Oh my God my massage therapist was telling me about this only yesterday. Since getting home yesterday after my backrub I have been binge watching it.

Now up to episode 10!

V gripping.

Belindabelle · 25/08/2019 13:07

DH and I started this last night. Up to episode 7 already.

Very watchable and a bit daft at times. Perfect binge fodder.

PollyPelargonium52 · 27/08/2019 08:02

I shall look forward to series 2 which is apparently the middle of 2020 lol. Or that is when it is aired in the States.

TixieLix · 27/08/2019 08:19

Discovered this yesterday on NowTV and have watched the first three episodes. Will probably binge watch a load more today. Liking it so far.
