    Too bad it never made it!
    i've seen a lot of clips of this show (mostly out of order, and with giant plot wholes) but every scene I've watched was so entertaining. I sorta wish something had come of the show. The writing and acting were great. And the whole cast seemed to have some great chemistry. I loved Elizabeth Mitchell's character and it's funny about all the Lost folks showing up here. I swear I just saw Jacob in a scene. I knew Naveen and Liz were in it, but now him too! Too funny. The story lines were thoughtful and captivating. Even all these years later, it seems like it would have made great TV. And although a news show might, be a used story line I think this had an interesting spin with the 24/7 internet frenzy that was coming about at that time. I guess this just goes to show that even a great show can fail if it doesn't hit at the right time or find an audience.
