This season started off rather enjoyably, but it has reached the point of pretty awful. Too bad, I had really high hopes for this show.

We seem to have this trend of show jumping the shark in a bad way on their second season, like Heroes and now this. I imagine it will happen a lot more often as shows continue to try to rip off Lost with its mysteries and out of order story telling. It worked well for Lost, but it just doesn't work for everything. TSSC out of order story telling style often just makes it confusing and even lame, rather than cool and revolutionary (as I suppose they are aiming for).

I really thought this could take off and be a pretty good show, but they are far too focused on cheap tricks and mysteries to shock us with, rather than on telling a good story to entertain us. Stupid sleep clinic episode is a good example of a cheap trick, we are lead to believe the sleep clinic is real and the kidnapping is the dream, then they flip it and it turns out dumb Sarah got herself captured and is dreaming about being in a sleep clinic. It is a dumb idea, nonsensical and pointless, and it did nothing to drive the story forward. It is episodes like this, which are quickly becoming the norm, that are going to seal the fate of this show.

Last episode I really enjoyed was the one where they have the showdown with Chromartie in Mexico. Since then it is obvious they ran out of story, and are now just trying stuff on to see how it fits, and so far none of it has.
