Anybody else watch this tonight? It is on SYFY by Ron Moore about a virus outbreak on an arctic station. I found it pretty good and very creepy. It reminds me of a cross between the Thing and the Andromeda Strain. The best actor is by far Billy Campbell who does a good job playing the CDC scientist trying to find answers. I will probably watch the next few episodes to see where it goes. |

I enjoy it so far. If I were to award the first two episodes a grade, it might be a solid B. The disease storyline is involving and even a bit frightening, and the atmosphere is definitely potent. However, none of the characters grab me. Every time the dialogue shifts into a character-development gear, such as the protagonist's hesitant relationship with his ex, I become bored. I will definitely continue to watch, though. |

Ain't bad at all. Being on the SyFy network almost deterred me from watching the show since the only decent ongoing series produced by that channel was Battlestar Galatica. |
