Loved the interplay between Kristin nod her roommate. Love the premise and came wait for Tuesday.

Exciting premise, good plot - with, yes, much suspension of disbelief. You're so right. I found the snitty fast-talking personalities of Kirsten and Cameron off-putting at first. For a drama (clever science fiction that it may be) to succeed, the main protagonist must be LIKABLE. Even anti-heroes/heroines must have qualities that engage the viewer's sympathy and concern. We have to CARE what happens to them, or the action becomes just so much pseudo-scientific hoopla. By the end of the premiere, I was beginning to like Kirsten and to a lesser extent Cameron. I think we'll be seeing more of Camille, too, despite the fact that she distrusts Kirsten and has evicted her. Kirsten is the linchpin. There's room for growth in her persona, for developing feelings in spite of herself. I'm interested in her backstory, too, and it could take quite a few episodes to unravel the mystery of her father. Then we can tackle her (up to now hardly mentioned) mother. So, yes, I'll be watching. I hope that the individual stories are a fascinating backdrop for Kirsten's journey. The premier began a very intriguing ride and I plan to stay on board.

Stitchers was amazing! The pilot episode was fantastic and the cast is perfect! :) I can't wait for more!
