My wife and I watched the first episode of Daybreak on ABC last night. Itโs like a cross between Groundhog Day and The Fugitive and as intense as 24. I wasnโt looking to get hooked on a TV show, but I think it happened. Critically, thereโs (apparently) a promise of closure after a certain number of episodes, unlike Lost, the show itโs temporarily replacing and whose joys are diminishing as viewers like me feel as though weโre just getting strung along.
