HSW Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Really enjoyed the pilot.Hope this one is able to have staying power without getting too ridiculous. *cough* Homeland *cough* If it is really good and gets great ratings they will keep it long after the storyline should have ended. The curse of success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabidFan Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 use of Juice Newton's Queen of Hearts playing in the mall....should get some good 80s music in the show but using Collins' In the Air Tonight should have been left to Miami Vice FBI neighbor lame and cheeseball actor for it.

renaissance Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Really enjoyed the premier but I won't watch this except on DVR because there are so many ****ing commercial breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I dig it. Never thought Felicity would be the stronger one. When she kicked his head into the well....yeah....awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Considering what she'd been through... Of course. I was meaning the actor herself doing that so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Since the show takes place in D.C. in the 80s, I wonder if there will be any 80s Redskins references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissance Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Since the show takes place in D.C. in the 80s, I wonder if there will be any 80s Redskins references. They've already started referencing the Capitals. Dammed hockey loving commies! Edit: Would be funny if FBI neighbor invites the family over to watch football, and to see the reaction of the father who clearly likes hockey.

Jumbo Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I thought that too, but then I realized on our street of 20 homes Neighbor on left is with NSA NeIghbor on right has son in FBI Neighbor down the street is a Federal prosecutor Another neighbor down the street does something that he's not willing to talk about at block parties. Another neighbor works for CIA (husband and wife) Another neighbor works at Pentagon (husband and wife) And I have a good friend who is an FBI investigator . I'm clearly a major threat to national security. And I don't know what the other half of my neighbors do. The DC suburbs are a special place. Yeah, typical west coaster, I hadn't thought of that reality. Probably can't through a rock in a DC suburb without hitting some sort of fed.

Skins4Life6388 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I was really impressed with the premiere, although FX is known for churning out good dramas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskin4ever Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I dig it. Never thought Felicity would be the stronger one. When she kicked his head into the well....yeah....awesome. Felicity! Nice Reference. Hilarious! It's funny how we see people in other shows and we reference them as their old characters. I thought the first episode was good. I don't watch a lot of current TV shows, so they have to be intriguing to pull me in. I was excited for this show to start and I wasn't disappointed. I'll be curious to see where it goes from here, but I like what I saw on the pilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohh yeah, forgot the son plays hockey. I could definitely see that scenario playing out but obviously I'm sure the KGB would have had the Russians study up on the Counter Trey, Fun Bunch, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Watched the DVR of it last night. I thought it was pretty good and seems to have a lot of potential. Hopefully the next few episodes won't disappoint and will fully hook me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I thought last night's episode was even better than the first one. I think the wife is becoming a little more likable and I'm intrigued by the dynamic with the FBI neighbor. I think this will be a fun and entertaining show.

I'm glad I found some shows I like to fill the void left by SOA and Dexter. I like those 2 shows so far as well. I've been hunting for good shows since Lost, 24, and Friday Night Lights all abandoned me right around the same time. I've had to read books and go to the gym to kill the time...horrible.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I enjoyed last night's episode as well. Russell's character is growing on me and I think it's cool how things seem to be tightening around them. The KGB is brutal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Since the Following seems to be leaking ES viewers, i figured I'd bump this thread in case folks have been missing this show. I really like it, very well done. Definitely recommended. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Really liking this, I watched all the episodes On Demand to get caught up over the weekend. Keri Russell is pretty awesome in this, I like the dynamic between her and the husband. Their reaction to the Reagan assassination attempt was interesting.
