Anyone catch this show? The previews looked interesting. I watch CSI Vegas every week, and I caught the previews of this show.
I have since "obtained" a copy, but haven't had the time to watch it yet.

Didn't bother to watch it. History has taught me this show will be cancelled really fast.

Supposedly all of the episodes were already filmed and CBS claims its a series, not a season.

It is only meant to be something like thirteen episodes for the whole run, not a multi-season, or even a full single season show. More serial than series.
I did watch it, and I'm not really sure how to put it. It's pretty cheesy. It has plenty of the usually "people getting knocked off one-by-one in an isolated location" cliches. There are of course the prerequisite red herrings (or are they?) and an uber-creepy kid that fries live snails with a magnifying glass and stares at the parents while they sleep.
All that aside, I didn't hate it. I actually kind of enjoyed it to be honest. Obviously it harkens back to those 70's "ten people in a mansion and one of them is a killer" movies, but some of those were fun. If you watch it with a Saturday afternoon matinee mindset, and just accept it for what it is, it might be worth watching. That being said, I'm basing all that off of one episode, so I guess time will tell.

That's what I mean. See also: Push, Nevada, Windfall.

Looks interesting, but something that has already been done a few hundred times.
