  I remember this series as being something I really enjoyed watching, always hoping they would answer a question or two and thinking it would be something that wraps up soon. In ignorance I fell into the series of nothing really being covered, more questions being asked and game playing on each episode. I want to still like this series, I really do, but I think I may take the course of many and wait until the next season comes out on DVD and watch it all at one time next summer. That way I do not have to watch the 35 minutes of commercials and 25 minutes of show every Wednesday night. Please, just for once, ANSWER A QUESTION without ten more questions!

  On a side note, I started this season loving a new series called Jericho, now I am waiting for them to cancel this boring weekly ride down doldrums lane.

  One idea is to Tivo the show, and then you can skip all the commercials. Still love the show.....disappointed they are making us wait until Feb for more episodes.

  You could watch the ending first, and then start at the start

  It might be back sooner, freedom96. I am not impressed with the replacement, Daybreak, being caught in a timeloop. I preferred the show Seven Days.

  Welcome to the wonderful world of JJ Abrams. He did exactly the same thing with Alias--created a great show that totally knocked my socks off for the first season, was great TV for the second, was borderline the third, and was unmitigated garbage for the remainder of its run. The only reason it lasted as long as it did was the great combination of Jennifer Garner and Victor Garber.
  
  That show started out with a central mystery and an interesting premise. Once those things were resolved, it tanked and never found its direction again. Abrams could have pulled it out, but he was too busy with--guess what!--his new shiny project Lost, and he ignored Alias and let it devolve into suckitude. Now he's doing the same thing with Lost, in favor of his new (and probably tanking) project Six Degrees.
  
  The man's a menace. More suited to movies than TV shows.

  I am not impressed with the replacement, Daybreak, being caught in a timeloop.

  It is a like a series based on the movie Groundhog Day
