The Nine on ABC - Official Season 1 thread

"What happened in there?" is the premise...
I'm hooked and I wanna know too. It was funny when they were eating dinner in the diner and the waitress dropped the tray and they all jumped. This is a bit like LOST in the use of flashbacks...

Finally I thought I was the only one who watched this show. I was bored at fist but I like how the writers keep you guessing & don't reveal too much info about the story.

Those 9 people seem pretty shook by that robbery incident & none of them know what happened..

Also was I theonly one who noticed that the shows features some of the cast from Party of 5 & Prison Break are on this show.

Also the black chick who didn't show up to dinner seems really shook by what ahpened, but I think there's more to her. Perhaps they used her to commit the robbery.

I'll tune in this Wed to see what happens.

It's on CTV right now...premiere and second episode.

I think Felicia has stockholm syndrome ...

It was OK, I didn't find it that interesting but I might tune in next week and watch the second episode to see if it picks up the pace.

It was a 2 parter...so you missed the second episode tonight.

Anessa, you watch too much damn TV

I watched the first episode weeks ago, I was wondering what happened to it. I guess the other one I saw was a screener or something. I'm gonna go watch episode 2.

It's called BT and TiVo

The Nine has one of those well-done scenes that have a lot of characters and a lot of things happening, but you know exactly what's going on and what everyone is doing. And it clued us into how this show is going to operate in each episode. They're not just showing us what happened with a flashback, it's almost as if each episode is a new look at what happened, not just a flashback rehash of stuff we already know. It's a good ensemble cast too.

I like this show - it's sort of like Lost in reverse. Imagine if Lost started off with them being rescued and the show was about their lives afterwards and they flashbacked to their time as castaways.

Too bad it's probably gonna be cancelled. It's not doing too well in the ratings.

American networks are too trigger happy when it comes to cancellation...they cancelled Huff it won Emmys

Damnit, I missed tonight's eppy... guess I'll have to watch it online tommorow.

It's been good so far because of the fact you want to find out what happens, but that's about it. I mean, I'm hooked and all, but I can recognize that it doesn't have that element of good writing and acting, or wit, that shows like Lost (used to), 24, or Grey's Anatomy has.

But I'm giving it a chance anyways. It's just that if they hold out for too long, people will get tired of the mystery (me on Lost), and if they reveal too much, the only thing keeping people watching will be gone. It takes a really good writer to be able to pull this type of show off, I hope it works out!

It does lack that "it" effect of good writing acting, wit, action. I was ready to stop watching this show but last episode was pretty good so I'll give it another week.

The show is pretty weak though, I can see it being cancelled mid-season. The story is only average, no star-power actors or really good-looking actors to gawk at, no really likeable characters. Doesn't help LOST is struggling in front of it as well...
