Who watched it? I thought it was okay. Nothing too special, but there were moments of promise. I laughed at the most stereotypical Texas opening I could think of when he hit the armadillo.

I was having a hard time watching Lee Pace's character. It was a strange and poor imitation of Don Draper. The lunch scene where he started talking over drinks to the business guys was so influenced by Mad Men it was uncanny. He even has some mysterious past that we will find out more about soon. I did love his maneuver with IBM and the attorneys though.

Thoughts? For me it was just good enough to keep watching.

I recorded it and then fell asleep watching it late... That was due to me being tired and not the show.. I am going to give it a go again tonight..

I was looking for the thread about this show last night.

Wached it with no expectations and not really knowing much about it. I thought it was pretty entertaining. Mad Men ending soon and Breaking Bad already ending makes me believe that AMC isn't just throwing something again the wall to see if it sticks...

I think it will be a legit show. I'll definitely give this season a shot and see how it goes

I thought it was in the middle. I can see it developing into something good - hopefully.

I like the theme song. It's actually a Trentmoller song called Still On Fire.

I hope they include more 80s indulgence and music.

I though the short haired girl could have been better looking ;)

Just finished the pilot. I found it very intriguing and think it left the audience wanting more. Looking forward to E2.

I am definitely giving it a shot, especially now that so many others have ended, or will be ending soon....so sad I have to wait til next Spring for more Silicon Valley.
