John Monad: The end is near.

A Great Show

I think this show is completely original and exactly what should follow something everyone else perceives to be the "best show ever". Don't get me wrong... I loved the 'Sopranos' and I loved the finale. But it's time to move on and I think a show like this; a show that actually makes you think a little bit is exactly what HBO needs. And I don't think this is HBO's excuse for a "Lost" (because I know that's what most of you are going to try to argue, because it's all you know). Everything else has been done, so we need to embrace a next step (Start writing if you think otherwise).

The whole point of this show (i think) is to THINK!, not just about yourself but about everyone else around you.
