Just watched first part.


I don't know. I don't understand how no one has ever smelled the dead body coming out of the manhole, or even how no one from otuside the manhole has went inside for service/fun/inspection/whatever. It was suspensefull in the "fighting against larger more powerfull forces for your life" kind of sense.
I'll watch part 2. When is it?

If I was in their position, I would've went straight home and got changed into new clothes, get your money, go to the airport, then get on a plane across state or to another country. I wouldn't stay at the same place overnight.

I just watched it too. It wasn't bad at all. I'll certainly watch part 2 tomorrow night.

I'm a little perplexed that it hasn't aired anywhere else first. And there was no hoopla that I saw about it being a world release or anything. I guess I'm not used to seeing foreign productions first. Normally we're the last to see anything - and half the time that includes stuff produced here.

Oh well. I like Gil Bellows, shame about Daryl Hannah though. I've never thought she could act her way out of a paperbag, and her performance in this didn't change that opinion. But the other supporting cast is really good.

Yeah i thought it wasn't half bad, better than your average miniseries

and also with ya on the part bout us seein it first

gonna watch part 2 tommorow, watching it made me think that it could go for longer

"Only the god's know our fate", "Not even the gods know our fate and im gonn'a show 'em why"

What I don't understand is, when they were showing the ads for it; they showed Sydney. Was this just to get more people watching? The name and ad also suggested that it was the WHOLE world and not a giant alien colony living under the ground.

Ohh, you've touched on one of my pet hates about television. The networks edit their own stuff into the adverts and the voice overs include male and female, emphasising and contrasting things in what they're advertising. But they also edit it so that it's like the characters in the show are talking to the voice overs, and vice versa. And then during the actual show, al the ad breaks have a 25% louder volume!!! It's been so out of hand for about 10 years now. They also edit slow shows into fast-paced exciting previews, such as the new Battlestar Galactica, and make it something it's not. Just have to get out attention as best they can, which means increased volume, lying, hyping it up.
