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
"The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself. Almost inevitably, he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable." - H. L. Mencken
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 keep hearing Jon Voight in my head. "And that will lead to another clock and that will lead to another clock!"

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.

"It means 'Ask the next question.' Ask the next question, and the one that follows that, and the one that follows that. It's the symbol of everything humanity has ever created." Theodore Sturgeon.
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.
