A flesh-eating virus? Why oh why did we need to see that? Mark Valley is way too pretty to just lie on a table for a whole hour with invisible skin. I'm also not quite sure I get the point of spending 88 minutes trying to save his life only to kill him in the last 5 minutes. I do like the cow though and hope it features prominently in future episodes.
What else is there to say? The acting is pretty blah (excepting of course Lance Reddick - I'm loyal to my Wire people). They ripped off one of the best sequences from Minority Report (people floating in liquid reading brain waves to see the past as opposed to the future). And please, please no more melting flesh. Next time I might be trying to eat dinner while watching.
Where is this going? Are they just going to solve little freaky, out there puzzles every week and perhaps lead up to the big mystery? Or will it all just be about the big mystery and the creepy company armless Blair Brown is working for? I'm not sure I care to find out but something tells me I will be suckered into watching next week.

I didn't get it - but most of all, I didn't care. I will definitely not be sticking around for episode 2.
