i started watching this show the other day....and honestly ive been blown away by it so far. However why im tossing it up here is in season 2 their is some "hacking"...and its actually not the normal two people on a keyboard blasting past firewalls. just figured it deserved a mention here for actually doing its research. Anyway, the next episode should be buffered so im gonna go get back to it.

If you liked HOC, you should check out the series called Scandal.

normally same here, i tend to hate shows like this, i gave it a shot because well the lead is a great actor, and he doesnt disappoint(for me). Its one of those that really surprised me, partially because this is normally something i wouldnt even watch 10 minutes of before i was done. but kind of like House broke the mold on the normal sort of hospital drama, i feel this does it for the "political" type. Anyway...im still going through season 2 today...and this next episode should be buffered so im gonna go continue my binge

I tried to like it, but I always found doctor who to be a bit too whimsically eccentric for my tastes.

The eccentric timey-whimey about it is what I like most.

Just watched the pilot, and chapter 2 last night. I'm digging it. Not normally a show I would watch, but it's getting my attention. I like the plot so far, and the mystique about it. I have to say it's pretty damn good.

Yes, I watch the news. Your point still doesn't make sense.
