Same here. The last episode was kinda slow, I think they need to pick it up some, but yeah, Season 3 was awesome. :2cool4u:

Never heard of it, but from the description on IMDB I'd say it's too similar to X-Files ?

A television drama centered around a female FBI agent who is forced to work with an institutionalized scientist in order to rationalize a brewing storm of unexplained phenomena.

In X-Files, nobody believes in Mulder's work, so they send Scully(rational, non-believing scientist) to spy on him and his work, and in the end, to discredit him ... this description sounds too much to me as a rip off XD

is it so or shall I watch it ?

^ it's very much like x files, except there are more characters and stories. plus the "Scully" in this show is a believer. also, it's not about aliens, just other crazy science stuff. ex. shapeshifting, alternate dimensions, telepathy, etc.

It's really a lot different than the X-Files, at least I think it is, it was prob inspired by it though, I def suggest checking it out if you like Sci-Fi stuff. It's the same writer as the movie Super 8, hulu.com has the full season 1 up for watching. It's starts off about the description that you stated above, but changes to about alternative universe, this one and the other one (universe).

well, in X Files 18 episodes were Monsters of the week or shape shifting and so on, and like 5 on average were about aliens and conspiracies ...

and Scully has never been a believer(I'm only in season 7 though xD), but she still doesn't believe so fast as Mulder, hence she has doubts, hence the only true believer is Mulder ... it's like the episodes where Mulder found out that the aliens have brought human race into life, I mean, they made us, and Scully refused to believe it until she found the recipe of human creation in the writings on the spaceship, the human genome and that stuff ... So far it is the way that she accepts the conspiracy of the CSM, but she still won't believe everything Mulder makes up, not even after he reminds her that in all the years they've been together he has been wrong only like 1 or 2 times

I doubt anything can beat X-Files for me, so I'm not gonna start watching it until I'm finished with the show that says that X File is something like this: ''It's a case that's been designated... unsolved." ------ Fuck I love these quotes from X Files XD

Though, when I'm finished with X Files, I'll give it a chance

Some say it is X-Files for modern people or smthing like that. I've seen only Pilot so far and I'm not so excited about it. I'll see when I force myself to watch more of it.
