Episodes two and three have both thrown in enough hints about ongoing plots to keep me interested. Unfortunately, when it comes to the actual main plots, not one of them has really entertained me. The over the top evil hunting man in ‘The Target’ I found particularly uninteresting. So I’m still not sure about it. But they say that episode six is when it gets really good, so that might be a good one to jump in on again Andy, if you’re curious.

I don’t think it’s quite as bad as Tycho does — but I can completely see why you’d think that.

Josh?

I think maybe it’s to do with the ‘pilot’ factor, as well. There aren’t many pilots to shows that really interest me that much, or really express what the show will be like each episode either. Except maybe Alias. That was a great pilot.

I feel this is somewhat verified as a theory too by the fact that the second episode is 200% better than the first. Waaay cooler. Using some ideas which was nice. And I jumped about a mile in the last 2 seconds of the episode. That freaked me out. In a cool way. Notice the lack of spoilers, I’m trying to talk about something without actually talking about it, so sorry for the cryptic… crypticness… crypticality… crypticism…

Penny Arcade are less enthusiastic than you are.
