Robrider Posted April 8, 2015 Share Finished Better call Saul. It wasn't as good as Braking bad, but still not bad.Also Shameless season finished. I was a little disappointed this time. It used to be one of my favourites, but this season seemed a bit uneventful. Game of thrones is back next week. And currently busy with House of cards S3, which is excellent.

Initially thought it was a reboot of the 4400, but this one has an undercurrent of something pretty sinister/evil. lots of mini-arcs, but developing nicely.

Capricorn Posted April 8, 2015 Share Its actually a reboot of this french series. the creators are Carlton Cuse (from Lost and Bates Motel) and Raelle Tucker (from Supernatural and True Blood)yes, was aware of that. should have phrased my sentiment as "as a remake of the 4400" rather. But i'm sure you get the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i'm sure you get the intent.I must admit, I'm tempted to check it out. I've conceded to temptation before and started reading some of the GoT books.Its only led to disappointment and more questions. So I stopped reading.I don't want that to happen here. I've also grown fond of the characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted April 8, 2015 Share this is not the first remake of the french series. The frwnch series was brilliant - the amercianised versions so far have been rubbish. I am not holding thumbs for this As for the 4400 comparisons - there are none Les Revenants/The returned - People who have physically died over the course of hundreds of years are returned as they were at that time...over the course of a few weeks/moths....end of story The 4400 - 4400 people were all taken away by aliens over the course of time (alive) and were all returned at the same time in one location as they were...they all have special abilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from where the Returned stands now, its pretty similar: loved ones disappear/die. presumed dead. They return. similar enough, but please dont slash my tyres.
