 JA> Saw it too - got the free pilot download on iTunes - watched it with my

 JA> LOL

I also just saw the pilot on my DVR.  Reminded me some of Dr. Who in that
there are "fixed points in time" that cannot be changed, like the fate of the
female reporter.  It also reminded me of a couple of other recent shows,
including "Frequency" where a character does something that changes the
timeline and causes an unforeseen, and undesirable, outcome.

Of course, I am sure that was also covered in "The (original) Twilight Zone"
and a Simpson's halloween special at least once also.  :)

I liked it.
