I thought it was pretty good. I usually hate how producers introduce stories, but they did it fairly well for this.

Dunno how good the series is gonna be, though.

Anyone who remotely liked this show and was overly critical of Bionic Woman or The Sarah Connor Chronicles deserves a swift kick in the ass.

As one of the guys at work often says: 'They need a swift kick in the gash'.

I guess I won't be getting that swift kick then. :D

I don't mean to be the guy who goes on a forum and dumps on everything but this show was just all around bad.

It's almost like NBC is trying to be the worst network on T.V.

OK. I thought this was the biggest load of re-hashed 80s non-liminal marketing BS since Charlie's Angels 2. I only watched the first 20-25 minutes before deleting off my TiVo, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

The acting was really terrible.
The theme music started cool and then got all modern which make me :braf:
The product placement (hello brand new FORD cars for every vehicle) was intolerable.
The plot was convoluted as fuck, and there was absolutely no on-screen chemistry between any of the actors/actresses.
The "action" was sleep-inducing, most notably the first car chase (after KITT rescued the girl from the college library)... I didn't feel like any of the cars went faster than 50mph, and there were no near-misses, even though the actors faces were constantly cringing, as if to scream out HOLY CRAP SLOW DOWN OMG THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL.
The bad guys were not scary (even the ones who came after Mike for money he owed them), and delivered the worst dialog of the entire show.

It was basically just a 2-hour infomercial for FORD, with some nice camera directing. No thank you. -_-
