It didn’t hold up very well at all, but I enjoyed it as I was watching it.

Yes, I realize that _now_, but the way BBCA is hyping it makes it sound All New which, of course, it isn’t.

I thought it got seriously bogged down in the middle but there was some good stuff too. And Bill Pullman and the PR woman were the best thing in it.

I tuned in for the final episode tonight less out of anticipation than relief that it was all over. I was actually laughing during the big, dramatic scene at the very end with the blood spurting out of our heroes into the abyss. That’s probably not the reaction that the show’s makers were hoping for.
