Anyone gonna watch?  I'm in just to see how much they derp up the 'communications failure' with the Air Traffic.

Stuck at the Firehouse, 57 channels and nuthins on.

Not terrible so far.
But knowing how ATC works, they (should) have manual backups and would still be able to talk to them - handhelds if they need to, or an aerial relay between planes.





And I'm not sure about this magical 'software' that is updated between planes and ATC that is preventing the communication

Why do they need to upgrade the planes software? I thought LAX had the computer failure? This show has me confused.

Pretty goofy if you ask me.

pick up, lock on a wifi signal, down load software in the time a plane buzzes the tower.

they need the UNupgraded software from the plane to fix the LAX software.  I'm confused why they would need it (real world)

I actually liked it. I thought it was different enough and it kept me entertained. I know absolutely fucking zero about anything computer related. I know the Ethernet cable out of the plane was pretty wtf but overall I liked it.

Because the control tower is running Windows 8, and they needed to find a plane still running Windows 7.

I've only seen the bumper promos.

They were enough for me to conclude that there needs to be a Stupid Review Board.  If your movie or TV show is just too goddamn stupid and can't pass the board review, you get slapped around with a dead tuna.

This show would be a three-tuna drubbing.

Show creator and the guy it's based on were just on the Adam Carolla show.



Didn't see the show but apparently there really is a company/think tank called Scorpion.

A passenger airliner can hover above the landing strip, over a moving Ferrari, and drop an Ethernet cable out of the landing gear but it couldn't possibly...you know...drop another 20 feet and fucking land.

Jesus H Christ.

The whole airplane stunt was asinine and unnecessary. Just a ridiculous attempt to add action to what was otherwise a show about tech people doing tech things. I suppose the producers think a cerebral show without action just won't cut it with today's ADHD audience. (Though calling this particular storyline "cerebral" is obviously a stretch.)

Hanging out the top of a Ferrari at 200mph should have ripped her top off anyways.

I enjoyed it. I rolled my eyes when they hooked the ethernet as well, but overall it was a decent show. I will give it a few episodes and re-evaluate.
