PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Is this show's premise about the end of the world or something? Keep seeing the commercials for it on NBC.

The opening scenes were shot very well from different angles however I was totally lost (no pun intended!). I did catch the rest of the show and will prolly watch again.

7. "Random thoughts, synopsis of Ep 1" |
I was really impressed so far. The opening scene, to me, set the stage for Bill Pullman's character. Apparently, he was somehow instrumental in catching or convicting the satanist cult leader who killed Bill's daughter (using the heart for a ritual). We're introduced to the nun's character as almost a scientific character, doing research on the validity of miracles. The crucifixion shadow on the mountain "miracle" effect was impressive.I found it interesting how John Rhys Davies and Bill Pullman used science to punch holes in the spiritual aspects of the show. But I have a feeling that Bill Pullman's character's faith in God will be restored by the end of the series. I thought I read somewhere that they compared the nun to Mulder and Bill's character to Scully. Believer vs Skeptic. Interesting analogy. (I can't remember the characters names...I'm bad!) Bill's character researches the nun's background through the foundation she works for, discovering that she also lost a loved one by a cult, (her sister, mass suicide). From what I can tell, Bill's just relocating back to Harvard, a little girl in Miami is a comatose prophet of sorts after being struck by lightning (twice!!), a satanic cult leader has some seriously strong clairvoyance and/or power, and there's some sort of "miracle" baby that survived a shipwreck on the Aegean Sea. And the nun seems to be aware of it all. I'm hooked....can't wait 'til next week. The cult guy is seriously creepy, but in an entertaining way.

great summary briar-you really captured the essence of the show. Interesting theories about Pullman and how his faith may be restored. Any thoughts on why he lost his faith to begin with?

Good point-I think you're probably correct with thinking that Massey lost his faith when his daughter was murdered. But the guy in prison has faith-just towards the devil it seems. Do you think this journey he's taking with the nun will help him regain his faith?
