This new show was on ABC tonight and so far looks pretty good.
Think Groundhog day but more drama than comedy.
Worth getting if you catch my drift ;)

RE: New US TV Show: Daybreak
The premise (and the bitesize Lost bits put in the ads to make people watch...) didn`t really make me excited about it - but I`ve heard very good things from Americans who watched it last night, so I`m quite eager to watch it now. I`m really hoping I get into it, I need a new show to replace Justice kept for Friday evening viewing.

Is this a mini series or a full season?
A bit uncertain about it after reading the preview, they probably won`t be able to drag it out that long surely? If it`s only 6 or 8episode it sounds good, but any longer may start to drag.

What`s that about then? I`m in work and have no speakers so can`t watch trailer. To be honest I was suprised it wasn`t in the top pages on google when I searched for it.

It`s 13 episodes, and (hearteningly) the intention is for the story to be told within those 13 episodes. So it`ll take us up to Lost coming back.
They`ve got mini "webisode"-style snippets of Lost (new footage) that will air during the ads for Daybreak, but apparently they`re not saying when, so US Lost fans have to watch all the eps *and* all the advertising. ABC are *cunning*. :D:D Obviously they`ll end up on YouTube, etc

Right, I completly misunderstood you originally. I thought you were saying there were bits similar to Lost in the trailer to try and get people who like Lost to watch it. Doh :/
Their idea is a hell of a lot better to get people to watch it :D How long before shows start doing full on crossovers, where you only find out the twist or backstory by watching another show, or by buying 10 Mcdonalds meals.
I think I`ll give it a blast then, there will only be Heroes still on in a couple of weeks otherwise :(

Did they get told when there was actually a new episode on last year then ;)

I got the first couple of episodes last year and then had problems with my broadband, and never got around to catching up on them. I might have a scan after to see if the boxset for first series is cheap enough anywhere (although I`m skint :( ) because then I will only have to download series 2.
