Welcome home!!!! Good to see you back. I got your text message, but I can't text internationally, which is much with the suckage.

And I have Opinions about Vanished and Gale, but I'll share them with you over IM, because they're Dangerous and Risky and I don't want to post them here. And you won't agree, but oh well.

I hope you got a very good anti-virus program. *hugs*

Well, hello. We don't know each other at all but I recognize your name and had to spam in on this to say I am v.v. curious about your Dangerous and Risky opinions! :)

Hello. :) I've seen your name around as well.

To sum up, I like the show. And I (quite against my expectations) like Gale in it. Particularly in the second episode. It was obvious he was still figuring the character out in the pilot, but the second episode was a lot better. And I fully expect the third one to be better still. I was actually quite sad to hear the rumors that he's being let go from the show.

And I know this isn't the consensus among Brian/Gale fans (from QAF).

And I'm not going to say any more than that.

Well, let me come join you in the Risky Corner, then. I love mysteries. I'm not just loving it or hooked on it yet, but I like the show ok. And I like his work in the show. Like you, more in Ep 2 than the pilot, which was too short to get everything in they wanted to show. It needed to be slowed down and expanded to a 2-hour opener to really do it justice.

I would like the show a lot more if they'd dispense with some of the extra threads that I think are less interesting such as the kids (though I think the guy playing the son is doing very good work) and the daughter's BF, the ex-wife, and the fisherman, and concentrate more on Kelton's backstory and his interactions with Mei, the Senator (also think his work is good), and Judy Nash.

I will be very disappointed if the rumors are true. And it doesn't make a lot of sense to me that they wouldn't just tweak the storyline to open him up a bit more.

Welcome to the Risky Corner. ;) I won't say it's the next Grey's Anatomy or House, but it's fine. And they've only aired two episodes so far, so I say give it a shot. Ming Na is doing a good job (I've always liked her) and I do like Gale. I'd even go so far as to say that I already like him nearly as much as I liked Brian, and it took me a good long while to warm up to Brian - he was (for me, at least) an acquired taste. I was always more of a Justingirl (liked him right off the bat ( ... )

I kinda like the show too. I probably would have never watched without Gale because I didn't even know what the Fox channel was in our area. But, I like seeing him running around all tortured and broody wearing a shoulder holster. I'm sick like that. With only six eps I really don't think the gave Gale much of a chance. m

Yeah, I know (about the texts)... just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you. :)

And I already had a good anti-virus program. Which I use regularly. And which automatically gets updates and runs in the background whenever I turn the computer on. I suppose that's why I caught all the TJ's so fast... but it wasn't fast enough. *sigh*
