I have seen Zero Hour, but am nonetheless determined to enjoy it. I therefore decided that it takes place here http://www.ravensrook.com/torg/illithicar.html

I have that on our DVR to watch. Was it any good?

I've got it on my Tivo too, just haven't had time to watch it. First The Walking Dead, then Touch, and THEN Zero Hour. I just don't have enough hours in the day anymore.

Anthony Edwards is pretty good and so are his assistant kids. As for the plot, it played out like something derived from somebody who skimmed some Dan Brown knowledge, read a Wikipedia article on Robert Anton Wilson series and watched National Treasure 2. Oh, and watched Alias but only paid attention to the Rambaldi parts.
That said, it's pretty entertaining, especially if you pretend that your watching a TV show produced in a different dimension, like I am. For your best enjoyment, you need to turn your brain up to the point that you can understand how the various clues/conspiracies but not so far up that your conscious of the many, many ways this stuff wouldn't happen in the real world. And not the goofy conspiracy stuff, either. I'm talking stuff like the world's number one terrorist abducting a woman in full view of various surveillance cameras and not bothering to cover his face. Like that.

I finally got to watch this last night. A cross between National Treasure and the DaVinci Code. I liked it and I'll keep watching for now.

I keep hearing Jon Voight in my head. "And that will lead to another clock and that will lead to another clock!"

Hmmmm I watched the pilot, didn't like it very much (the premise itself)

I'm a sucker for these intricate conspiracy tales -- the more outre, the better. They usually don't hold up under close scrutiny but I love the ride.

By powers that I have no control over someone over here got this show already. I watched it...and completely regret doing so. I'm sorry but this has to be the most ridiculous and lamest show I've ever seen. I can't believe I wasted my precious free time with it, it was that bad. I think Anthony Edwards is a joke and he's just added another stinker to his not too stellar career.
If others like it, that's cool. But I honestly do not see the appeal and how anyone can truly enjoy this drivel. I wonder if it will even last a season and if it does, I bet it goes the way of the dinosaur.

I don't know....I like Zero Hour. It's kinda hokey....but it kept my interest.
