I admit to having seen only parts of the first 2 episodes, but it has definitely caught my attention. I've been hooked when I have had the chance to watch.

And it has Zooey in it. :love:

Sci-Fi Channel if anyone is interested.

I am sort of watching this, by sort I mean my evenings have been busy, so I am only catching bits. Honestly I have see Zooey act better, but it's Sci-Fi so I expect some cheezzzzeee.

Anyway it's a totally different take on the whole story. And is pretty good in parts. I don't know if those tree-dwelling miniature road warriors from water world were supposed to be the munchkins or not. I think so, but for some reason I though about Mel Gibson and Tina Turner instead of the Lolipop Guild.

I was expecting better from the trailers, it's pretty standard fantasy.. but worth watching.

I was SO looking forward to this, because for a short time I had the SciFi channel. But, I guess the part they needed came in and so I don't have the SciFi channel anymore because it's not part of the "package" I pay for.

I'm hoping I can find it somewhere online because I really wanted to see.

I saw the first 1 and 1/2 episodes. I like it so far, too. It isn't terrible and it puts an interesting spin on the Wizard of Oz. I'm not crazy about the story between Az.... (whatever her name is) and DG though. Sounds like a case of pissed off older sister, but I'm open-minded!

Well that was one way to end the whole thing.

The SciFi website has it up to watch, so I started it.

Definitely looking forward to the rest of it.

Glitch = :love:

I was unimpressed by the ending. It didn't feel like the threat to the O.Z. was real, just a vehicle for DG to do her thing.

I watched 2/3 of the first episode. I think that it is a good idea, but it was a little too creepy for my taste. I guess I am too much of a baby.

Yeah the ending was a bit rushed but I enjoyed it more as it went along and all the pieces came together. As a guy I don't like having to use words like "lovable" and "sweet" when talking about male characters, but I think that's how Glitch and especially Raw came across. :P And I was very sympathetic to DG's dad and Toto as well.
