    Is it very religious?
    This is actually a prequel to Lost. The people being raptured are sent to purgatory (the island).

    Have you seen the show "The 4400"? It has a similar premise but with the twist that you mention.

    I heard of it, but never watched. Is it good quality? Or is it one of the cheap "The Event" style network shows? Also, did they finish the series or was it cancelled before completed?

    On my DVR. Yes or no?

    Also on the HBO topic, Silicon Valley worth a look?

    I quite enjoyed Silicon Valley. If you dig Mike Judge stuff at all, you'll love it.

    I'm not the biggest Mike Judge fan, and I still really enjoyed Silicon Valley. And it's a good sign that I liked it more the further it got into it.

    It's also not a huge commitment. It's a short season of half hour episodes.

    i don't know what it is about this show that makes me watch it because it makes no sense.

    people in white who won't talk to some people but will others.

    vicious dogs chasing deer, hunters hunting dogs, dead dogs showing up in trunks.

    just people acting strange in general...

    i'm pissed half the time watching this since it feels like they're purposely just doing crap that makes no sense to make me think there is some big puzzle i'm supposed to put together... then i realize its all random shit with no rhyme or reason

    i like the premise of a Rapture. I dig Revelations movies. But this.....i want to hate it. I just don't know yet. its got me confused

    I felt the same way after the second episode. I was playing with my phone as I was watching, which is not a good sign. But it's so goddamned weird I'm not sure it matters. And it feels like I'm just watching to know what the hell is going on. Not because I'm particularly interested.

    Disappearing Bagels became a real issue for much of this episode.

    I couldn't read half of what that stupid cult b[COLOR="Black"]i[/COLOR]tch was writing. She needs to get a legal pad and a sharpie like the fat chick.

    Yeah. That second episode was pretty disconcerting. If ep3 doesn't do something to wake me up I'm done.

    Oh well.
