UZI Suicide 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 I've been waiting on this show for almost a year and FINALLY it's here. I really hope it does well because from everything I've seen and heard, it's great. Comes on tonight at 10 on ABC. Traveler Thursday, May 10 at 10/9c SNEAK PREVIEW! CAST: Matthew Bomer, Jay Burchell, Logan Marshall-Green, Tyler Fog, Aaron Stanford, Viola Davis, Steven Culp VIDEO: Watch a preview now! SYNOPSIS: Jay, Tyler and Will are friends who have spent the last two years in grad school. They are about to depart on a summer trip when a simple prank to rollerblade through one of New York City's most famous museums makes Jay and Tyler prime suspects in a terrorist bombing that destroys the museum seconds later. Hopeful that Will can help clear up this misunderstanding, they learn he's been missing since the explosion and think he may be dead. They're unable to turn to authorities when they realize they can't prove Will even exists. In every photo from the past two years, he has managed to block his face. Who will believe them? Friends, family, lovers? The boys are pawns in a conspiracy that will take years to unravel, and the government may not have their best interests at heart. Their friendship will be tested like never before as they try to uncover the truth, while avoiding detection of not only the FBI, but everyone in America who has seen their faces on TV as suspects in the bombing. Director David Nutter, who has defined many series including "The X-Files," "Without a Trace" and "Supernatural," along with the writer of "Eight Below" and the Oscar®-winning producers of "American Beauty" combine "The Fugitive" with "Enemy of the State" in a taut, tense thriller of innocents on the run. Flashing back to the prior two years to illustrate the formation of this friendship and Will's insidious behavior, this action-packed drama taps into our paranoia with pure adrenaline-fueled entertainment. Matthew Bomer ("Tru Calling") and Logan Marshall-Green ("The O.C.") star. Trailer: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obi Chris Kenobi 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 haha that sounds like it should be a comedy, is it? Could be such an awesome piss take of 24, Lost, etc. I'll probably watch it to see what its like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 I'm not seeing any comparison to 24 or Lost in this. Looks like the usual network fare. The trailer doesn't make me care about these two. I'll give it a shot since the concept, while not original or anything, can be interesting if done right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obi Chris Kenobi 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 Nah, in my mind, while reading what the show was about, I was thinking it seemed so far fetched that it could be so easily done in a way that took the piss out of 24's over the top antics. As for the Lost mark, it could probably use the 'who is Will' thing like who is Alvo Hanso or whatever. It made sense in my mind, nevermind lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 I dont get the 24/Lost comparisons, it totally screams Prison Break to me. People on the run from the police, theres a conspiracy, pretty elaborate planning behind the events.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People on the run from the police, theres a conspiracy, pretty elaborate planning behind the events.. What, I never said it was anything like Lost/24, but from the over the top preview of the plot, in my mind, it looked like they could take the piss out Lost/24 from how crazy it sounded. I said they could take the piss out of Lost, due to the 'Will' thing, with stupid backstories and stuff. 24 due to the fact that 24 is over the top crazy now, much like the initial plot post read, just really matter I guess, since this is a 'serious' show and not a spoof. But yes, it does scream of Prison Break. It was ok, but just seemed to be another by the numbers TV show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
