Anybody watch it? I recorded it and just watched it, it was pretty darn good. Thoughts if you did.

I DVRed it. I wanted to watch it last night but was in the ER for hours with my son. Nothing serious, just a couple of stitches.

I really liked it myself, but then I love this gangster/loyalty stuff. Can't see it staying on the air, though, unfortunately.

Yeah, you know most people talking about it said they liked it, but most of the reviews from critics are pretty negative. Makes me think it won't be around long. I thought it was excellent, but my opinion hardly matters in the grand scheme of things.

It's just not the kind of show that'll last, unfortunately, with mainstream audiences. You can get away with this on the big screen where people pay to see it, but I don't think anyone will go for it on free TV.

NBC just can't find a keeper in that 10 o'clock Monday night hour. The Black Donnellys seems like a good show, but like Sam said, not enough people will probably view it. And Studio 60's days seem to be numbered.

I liked it, but I don't see it as a long lasting program. I don't see how they can make it more than a mini series.

its a pretty good show, i think it might last for a season or two. i actually find it interesting but it lacks the touch that is found in heroes, lost, 24. so hopefully it would actually stay
