Ridiculous. You're just nitpicking. Which isn't surprising considering this board...

I'll be watching next week.

I wish it was on HBO. Some fine chicks in the pilot

Last thirty minutes were solid.

I thought it was a good pilot. I like the back story. The show has a lot of potential.

I liked it. Some of it seems like they're trying to hard but I'll see how it plays out. I'm definitely interested.

Really enjoyed it. Going in I was worried it was going to be a slow moving show based on the trailers. It was def not that. Very solid pilot.

It was a good pilot and I'll likely tune in to see where it goes. However, I don't see how long they will be able to draw out the storyline.

Its pretty obvious he is going to "temporarily" rule while his brother in hospitalized, then his brother will come out, there will be a struggle for power, he will become what he once hated, etc....

I hate the main characters wife though, for once can we have a woman sit down and shut up. She would not leave him alone.

Also why was the brother driving the cheaper lambo?

No shite... He should have bitch slapped her like he did the kid.

Something is obviously wrong, just stfu, wait until you get home, and then he will explain it to you. For fricks sake, you've been married 19yrs.

Exactly, I mean it's obvious he's going through some things she is better off not knowing and she will not shut the frick up.


I have not seen homeland

This! Thank you. I did end up watching the rest of the pilot on DVR this morning and the ending did kinda intrigue me.

But the whole family just drove me nuts.

Also, how the frick does she not know his family history? A simple google search would yield a shite ton of stories about how bad his family is.

I had it on mute, and I could still follow the plot. Maybe that would work for you. I'm a little disappointed to hear that, though. I hate poor writing/dialogue. I could barely get through two episodes of House of Cards.
