    Default The Following (new TV series)

    Finally, a well written and acted American crime/psychological thriller series that creates suspense and is unpredictable.
    Kevin Bacon is the ex-FBI agent that is a consultant on the serial murderer (James Purefoy) he once caught who has escaped and activated a cult following.

    The show has aired 3 episodes so far, so be sure to watch the first one and the rest in order.

    This is a fabulous crime drama.....unreal....the stuff that happens and the twists/turns the plot takes.....edge-of-your-seat thriller. Then there is the unexpected "WTH-just-happened" scenes. Do yourself a favor and put the git down for 1 hour a week. lol

    I can't take a guitar to work, but can watch a downloaded show when things get slow. What a funny world we live in!

    Thanks for the tip. I watched all three episodes on the fox site. I didn't like that I couldn't skip the commercials on the fox website when watching the episodes. I set my Directv DVR to record the series and then I can zip thru the commercials.

    I'm also going to check out "The Americans", starting tonight at ten, and I'm trying to figure out what they are saying on "The Ripper". It's very heavy with some type of thick British accent.

    Looks interesting:The Americans is a period drama about the complex marriage of two KGB spies posing as Americans in suburban Washington D.C. shortly after Ronald Reagan is elected President. The arranged marriage of Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell), who have two children – 13-year-old Paige (Holly Taylor) and 10-year-old Henry (Keidrich Sellati), who know nothing about their parents’ true identity – grows more passionate and genuine by the day, but is constantly tested by the escalation of the Cold War and the intimate, dangerous and darkly funny relationships they must maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control. Complicating their relationship further is Philip’s growing sense of affinity for America’s values and way of life. Tensions also heighten upon the arrival of a new neighbor, Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich), an FBI agent. Stan and his partner, Agent Chris Amador (Maximiliano Hernández), are members of a new division of Counterintelligence tasked with fighting against foreign agents on U.S. soil, including KGB Directorate S illegals, Russian spies posing as Americans.
