It was just a thought.  Thanx to Nemesis Predaking for this AWESOME Sig. My Feedback |

#26 | | Resident Autobot Ninja Join Date: Apr 2008 Posts: 3,959 News Credits: 6 | iI haven't seen the sneak peek yet, but I do have a question.
Do you think Thursday nights will be Action Thursdays for ABC?
I wouldn't be suprised if LOST joined this show and FlashForward.
It would go like
8/7c- V
9/ 8c- FlashForward
10/9c- LOST LOST Season 6: Destiny is Found 2/2/2010. |

So far it is kinda 'meh' for me. Visually nice, but the original miniseries did this so much better as far as pacing and such. so now they have it that there were sleeper cells of Visitors and people already know about them being reptiles? |
