Topic: Crisis
Crisis
It's field trip day for the students of Ballard High, a school that educates the children of DC's elite, top-of-their-industry CEOs, international diplomats, political power players, even the President's son. But when their bus is ambushed on a secluded rural road, the teenagers and their chaperones are taken, igniting a national crisis. Just watched the pilot and so far not bad, it has definately potential. Is this show already picked up or are they still in the deciding stage? If not they should. Edit: “Crisis” is from 20th Century Fox Television. Fox? Oh well, nevermind, nothing to see here, it will be canceled soon anyway.

Re: Crisis
I agree, there is potential. More than some other recent efforts (like Intelligence and Helix).

Re: Crisis
I had to pause because I was sleepy. Verdict or tired after a long work week? hmm Anyways, continued watching next day. I'm not sure I like the concept, seems like it can get repetitive fast.

Re: Crisis
2 episodes in and it's not bad at all. A few glitches here and there but overall, entertaining enough. Unfortunatly, some bad mojo surrounds it. 1 - It's FOX... 2 - There's a Last Resort feeling to it. They might lose momentum or go sideways before the end of first season or become stupid. 3 - By the story itself, 1 season, 2 at most... after that, it would be streching and stop being interesting. Let's hope for a decent 1 season at least.

Re: Crisis
I'm e few eps in and the show gets better every ep. Much potential and that is well used. Believable and good cast, well done. But because of the story I hope this is a well defined one season only show.

Re: Crisis
7 eps out. What do you guys think of this? (I still have not watched any, considering it...)

Re: Crisis
I'm finding it interesting enough. Reasonable character and plot development, no glaring fallacies. Perhaps not an entirely plausible premise, but more believable than I thought it would be.

You never know what the producers like to do when the viewership or ratings or whatever is good enough for a second season - see Prison Break Episode order for season 1 is 13 episodes, but right now its only scheduled till 1x11 on June 15.

Re: Crisis
Indeed, so let's hope it was produced as a one season series without cliffhanger.

Re: Crisis
Damn - that was a fine episode with the Chinese virus. Not so far fetched and kinda realistic. This show surprises me with every episode. I can't wait to see the great finale

Re: Crisis
Last episodes out. It was not a bad 1 season and it was obviously not going further than that but at least it got tied up ok. So it's a 1 season show that can be watched.

Re: Crisis
Indeed. It was a nice show that ended really well. For a moment during the last two eps I was worried that they prepare for a second season but all was resolved in the finale

Except for that very last scene, but that was probably only just in case they do get a second season (which they diden't).

Indeed - forgot about that one. I guess it's an unwritten rule that you can't end a series without a universal cliffhanger, no matter how the story went. So when someone, sometime decides to make a sequel movie, you can pick up there
