La Brea – is it as good as I was hoping?

I wasn’t sure I’d like it, but I’m hooked. I’ve been watching on Hulu and I’m almost finished with season one. In spite of not believing time travel is ever going to be possible (because if it was, where are the future people coming back to our present time?), and being a little confused on the logistical issues posed by the plotline of the show, it’s really grown on me. I want the folks who fell into the sinkhole to find their way out. I want the families to be reunited. And I can’t figure out if the daughter with the prosthetic leg is a really good actor, or a really bad one.

All in all, I’m glad I gave it a chance. Usually I’m not into sci-fi this this one doesn’t go overboard, which was one of my complaints on lost. They kept throwing in stories and situations that 1. didn’t make sense and 2. were not really ever explained.

This show is softening the blow of realizing Big Sky isn’t as great now as it was in season one.
