Did anyone watch the pilot on NBC tonight? It was ok....I only watched because I wanted to see the clips of Chicago...but with NBCs track record, I wouldn't be surprised if they cancel this in 6 weeks. Interesting idea, but NBC never gives a show a chance. Should I even waste my time?

I'm a sucker (so many bad shows I've given too much time to - Happy Town anyone?), but I liked this. The fighting scene was cheesy, but I'm definitely interested enough to see more. Did they know the uncle was in the bar? That seemed ridiculous that they would find him the first place they looked in Chicago.

I watched, and was pretty underwhelmed. How many times can Charlie use "Because we're family" as an answer?

[meowmaps]

I was bored, the (over)acting was bad, and it was cheesy overall.

I think -can't go back and check, deleted it- the father told Charlie she could find the uncle at The Grand. How they managed to locate the hotel that quickly is beyond me.

That kept making me laugh because it's such a Kripke thing - Supernatural is his baby and it's all about family and sticking together.

I didn't think it was bad. It's not my normal genre, but I was intrigued and there's enough to keep me interested for now.

it was so so so bad. We will not watch again.

EH, it wasn't great but I will probably DVR it and watch it if/ when we're bored. But it will get cancelled before the season is out anyway.

I also watched it because of the Chicago scenes. I admit it wasn't as bad as I predicted but I went in with super low expectations. I'll continue to watch but I hope NBC makes a decision sooner rather than later whether or not they'll keep this--I'm sick of getting vested in something only to have it canceled (i.e. Persons Unknown).

In its defense, I didn't really want to like it. I can't record and a 10:00 show is too late for me. Haha.

I think it had potiential, but they crammed in too much stuff in one hour for me. They should have built it up slowly with character development not throw so much in so fast.

I loved the show Jericho and was hoping I would like this, but not so much.

We finally watched it last night - terrible writing, subpar acting...it was like watching a train wreck.

With that said, we will totally be watching again next week.

I agree it could have been a LOT better. The acting (especially by the actress who played Charlie) was pretty bad.

I'll keep watching for a while, though. I still really like the premise, and I'm willing to give shows a few tries to get things right!
