I loved this, the series seems to really be hitting its stride now - and with the revelation of one thing, more questions are now popping up (Jen is my fav character and now I am going WTF even more : )

I also liked how the different people reacted to the reveal and the true mission - which of course is now a bigger focus and mystery then what was in pod 4 damn it more questions - I hope they write a book at least if no more episodes are filmed

I loved it too. I was as awe struck as the crew. It was very well done. But I didn't think Jen saw anything. I wonder why? And what about her cutting down the fractal tomatoes. She was right about using up the water. Its very curious as to why she is there.
I too want a book written if the series dosen't continue. It hurts that so many fallow minds could sink such a good story.
i really want to know what happens to Donner and Zoe. What is really going on between them. But most of all I want to go around the Solar System and get these Beta things.

Thanks for the weblink!!! I expected to have to wait until ABC got its act to gether before this episode would be available for view. It never occured to me that the future episodes might be getting broadcast somewhere else. I heard there are 13 episodes as part of ABC's initial commitment, just nothing beyond that yet. Thanks again! Do you find this valuable?

welcomes - and yes, the 13 episodes were part of a package deal and supposedly ABC optioned all - but where they show them, how and when.... who knows??? : / Right now just the channel SPACE is still showing "new" episodes - I have to update the schedule page - I got bummed when ABC put the show on "hiatus"

I found this episode to be most fulfilling, yet had some of the worst moments for the actors still. *the reacton from the astronauts about the secret cargo and purpose of their mission was a little hollow but still not bad* I wrote to ABC letting them know that if they remove this show, I wont watch their programming anymore, plain and simple. Hope it works out guys, hate jumping through hoops to get quality but w/e, DG is worth it. Do you find this valuable?

You know, I was thinking they really did not show much with the reaction - except maybe Jen - I am hoping once we figure out how to get Deja Vu, we find out more - and yes keep up the letting them know - if people stop barely a week into things, then how serious can we expect the programming people to be....

I saw on wikipedia the date of the rest of the shows. I don't now how to post links forgive me. The remaining episodes will be shown on Space.com. DajaVue on 10-2
Solitary 10-9
Venus 10-16
Kiss 10-23
A description of each show is given too. Its only for Canada. But maybe someone somewhere wili make them available on the net.
And on u-tube somone replyed to my post that hope is not lost. Eve ate the apple has not been shown in the US and it will be a test to see about audience retention and that will decide the fate . This poster said it was insider information and specified Grey's Anatomy's off season slow start when it began. Who knows what is going on. I just know a good show when I see it . I hope ABC finishes the show or airs it on another cable station. But to not give any news about is not cool, because people are thinking its a dead issue and moving on. They are losing viewers by not giving out any info.
The synopsis of the new episodes sound really good too.

Thanks - I'll update the broadcast schedule and I agree that they are watching to see if there is support - We need to coordinate a massive mail in campaign for that to work though

Its like there are pockets of people all over the place but they are not united. I don't know how to send out a siren call for that. If we posted it on their main site would people see it . It seems most of the posters are one time posters. Do you find this valuable?

Yeah - I post a lot on Facebook -they are up to 5000 fans and I started even posting comments on every blog that talked about Dg - it needs to be united and people need to start actually doing something - the best thing is the petitions those are up to almost 2000 - I would love to have a coordinated push...

thks for website headsup...
a decent, promising show with hints of adult metaphysical musings; I think US, Canada, UK, and German TV are giving it a go:
generally speaking, well crafted shows will make an impact either technically in visuals/pacing/editing or literate writing-as much for what is not said as well as what is said- no matter how long or short a show's existence. .
Often being successful at catching the over the air broadcast viewing public is the luck of the draw of the viewing public zeitgeist. hope that made some sense :
In DG's case, I feel glad they are being given a chance to find their audience....

We still need to make noise so the show will continue. We have to post as much as possible in a common place to make an impact. One time posters have to keep going back to ABC.com and post every day. Do you find this valuable?

I enjoyed it, overall. I liked learning more about Eve and it was a relief to finally get the truth about Beta! But the one thing that annoyed me was Paula's sudden religious surge. She's my favorite character, but I kinda wanted to slap her when she told Steven he was going to hell. Or be damned. Not anything against religion, but in this case, it was a little much.

It does seem in your face - but i wonder if that is more the writer trying to get certain characterizations across and worried about time so doing it quickly and trying to establish it - these days, as we can see, nothing is certain in entertainment land, which is a shame because it rushes so many stories. and of course then people learn to expect that and get "bored" when a writer/story does take longer (I know a comment many people had with this episode was there was too much Eve story and it wa too drawn out... personally it made it seem like her struggle was that much more pronounced and what she went through was more developed... I mean come on Eve has power here and the episode does not even go near touching how Eve managed that...
