Keenir. just watch it. We only get 13 episodes a year and you're willing to miss one? sure her ability is kinda lame, but i think it plays a nice part into the 4400 story. and of course, the development into the characters of the new NTAC lady and Kyle.

NOTE: c'mon, how else are they supposed to let us fans know "hey, we're building up a rivalry between Marco and Ben for Diana's affections" ?
;)

What does that mean????

{snip}

I'm willing to miss an episode if its the weakest of the 13, sure.
(I think with one fandom, I didn't get a chance to see the pilot episode until after seeing every other one air)

ps: watch what? *is curious* or do you mean "watch the episode" ?

i never said anything about april.

when i said 'she' i meant the astral projection lady. It's lame. But there's still the main cast members that did something. in terms of plot, it's pretty standalone. but i feel that the writers are getting us comfortable and hopefully they'll start kicking us.

ps: re-read the comment you replied to. I said a courtroom drama in a language I don't know and a culture I know exceedingly little about, makes more sense than astral projection.


Okay, but if you're using believability, or in your terms "how much sense" an ability makes as an indicator of whether you'll watch or not, I'll repeat & rephrase:

Astral projection is less plausible/makes less sense than a courtroom drama in a language you can't understand. Telekinesis is less plausible/makes less sense than a courtroom drama in a language you can't understand.
{insert random 4400 ability here} is less plausible/makes less sense than a courtroom drama in a language you can't understand.

I mean, what's the point? It's sci-fi; obviously it requires suspension of disbelief to enjoy the show at all. By your reasoning, you shouldn't watch the show at all, since it will never "make sense" when compared to a concrete legal drama.

ps ps: I wasn't asking for reactions -- I was asking if it was worth the bother of watching it, given how often people scream bloody murder that Ben was in an episode.


Whether someone will tell you to watch the ep or not is entirely based on their reaction to the ep. If they rated it "awesome", then it's highly likely they would recommend it to you. If they rated it "okay", "pretty bad" or "worst", it's likely they'd tell you to skip it. What's the sense of asking people how the ep was in two different threads when all you really have to do is look at the episode poll results? (Or PM someone to look at them for you if you hadn't voted yet.)

ETA: Here are the poll results so far:

One of the Best! [ 2 ] [15.38%]
Awesome [ 7 ] [53.85%]
Good [ 3 ] [23.08%]
Okay [ 1 ] [7.69%]
Pretty Bad [ 0 ] [0.00%]
One of the Worst! [ 0 ] [0.00%]

So it looks like the majority of posters recommend you watch the ep. :)
Kaylee, find that kid who's taking a dirt nap with baby Jesus. We need a hood ornament.

It was a very emotional time for Buttercup.

I was out of town and have only been able to get to this now. While dawn is right about no one power being more believable than the next, this episode stank. Shawn's plotline, which was maybe the third on the list, was the only redeemable part. Don't waste your time--or just watch the last 5 minutes.
