xStaceyxMariex · 12-04-2008, 20:02

I've got it on, looks good

Mambo Italiano · 12-04-2008, 20:05

Fabulous programme - seen it before, watching again

A Cillay · 12-04-2008, 20:06

I'm not really sure what to make of it.

Moloko · 12-04-2008, 20:07

It's OK so far. Not outstanding though.

Andagha · 12-04-2008, 20:08

ok just as I was getting into it a blooming advert comes on..hmmm

Virtuousdream · 12-04-2008, 20:08

It's kept me gripped off my computer screen, must be good!

12-04-2008, 20:08

young ned. heh. missed this at us pace so hopefully keep up with it now.

Victim Of Fate · 12-04-2008, 20:08

Not sure if that's where I'd have put the first ad break - pretty sure that's not where it was supposed to go.

Johnr · 12-04-2008, 20:09

Was just about to stick Awake (The film!) on, but this has grabbed my attention.

Actually reminds me of Roald Dahl for some reason!!!

jandt64 · 12-04-2008, 20:10

im enjoying it so far, agree about the ad break though.

_Zd_Phoenix_ · 12-04-2008, 20:10

Rather odd ... like it's Tim Burton on TV atm. I'm gonna shut up and watch it properly now; it's interesting ...

xStaceyxMariex · 12-04-2008, 20:11

I quite like it, as it's only the pilot I'm sure it will get better with time.

jandt64 · 12-04-2008, 20:11

anyone gotta spare pie? im hungry now

Unfortunately ITV have decided to drop the second episode, which is one of the best.

Why have they dropped it?

What!

See, this was one of the thing that I was a bit worried about if it went on ITV. BBC1 did the same thing with The Simpsons first time round.

BTW, can't believe she was allowed to say masturbation on network tv in the US just then!

Why? Source?

xStaceyxMariex · 12-04-2008, 20:14

If it's true, how stupid. Wouldn't some of the story be missed out?

Sad_BB_Addict · 12-04-2008, 20:15

So .....
The "rules" are:
1. If he touches a dead thing, it comes to life, but this can only be done once
2. If he touches it again within a minute, it dies again.
3. If he doesn’t touch it within a minute, it stays alive but something nearby dies instead, and if he touches it again it’ll die.

Have I got it right?

!!!

This is why I didn't want it to go to ITV!! They shouldn't be allowed to have any good shows ever (*tries not to rant about how they're treating Dexter*)

Check the Radio Times listing, it's ep 3 next week. Someone on the Cult board emailed them and they said they only have room for eight episodes in the schedule. Quite why, considering the amount of marketing they've given it, I have no idea.

Virtuousdream · 12-04-2008, 20:17

Andagha · 12-04-2008, 20:17
