If it tanks on return, what will they think? Unfortunately, I doubt that their egos will allow them to learn. they will either blame unfaithful viewers or a drop off in the shows quality.
I can even see them moving it to another time slot - either to compete with something or as a tent pole which would further confuse the issue. #v

I would watch that. Then again, I think you could throw out the actual episode and have Morena Baccarin just talk about anything and I'll watch it. #v

Any one of the above revelations would have been good if they had been paced well, like each in the last two minutes of a separate episode, you know, like Lost does. Instead they are all crammed into the first episode. The Vs walk into the UN, and the next scene it's three weeks later? #v

Why wait 20 years for a cast reunion? Bring together the cast to reminiscence about the first four episodes. That should waste an hour. #v

Interestingly I had ZERO interest in BSG until its second season. I thought they were messing with one of the shows I loved from childhood and I didn't like the idea of making a show like that "modern times", I thought they were just using the name but disrespecting the original.
But one day for the hell of it I tuned into one of the marathons they were showing on sci-fi and from there, I decided to start watching from scratch.
But BSG was only four seasons and a short miniseries. LOST is just this huge behemoth. #v

ABC Executives: ABC Executives are slimy empty suits who seem to always manage to muck up even golden opportunities and will be the first with their butts against the wall when the revolution comes.
Visitors: Visitors are a loathsome race of space lizards, stupidly conquering planets through needlessly complicated schemes rather than the direct approach of blowing stuff up real good with their obviously superior technology. They are used as ham-handed stand ins for whatever American TV writers currently hate about their country.

Also, does anyone know if they are going to hurry up and get rid of references to "aliens", shots of ginormous space ships, and other sci-fi trappings they told us audiences hated in prime time, in order to keep momentum going?
I mean, they got a hit on their hands, they need to do some serious corrective CG surgery to remove all the elements that will alienate future viewers who want to see what all the buzz is about.
The faith they have in the sci-fi audience is truly heart warming.
