People people people. Its a TV show, and like with every TV show on earth, reality must be suspended. Lost(which I love)? Yeah thats realistic! 24 (my other favorite show) is about as plausible as the Easter Bunny. How about Friends? I'm sure Monica and Rachel could have REALLY afforded that NYC loft on their hefty salaries! LOL! TV is never completely realistic. Not even "reality TV" is real most of the time.

I have my real life, I watch TV for the escape and suspension of reality. The Nine is really picking up steam in my opinion. The acting is great, the writing is well done and the concept is very interesting.

My only hope is that show stays on the air long enough to see it through. I'd hate to see all these people who bitch about the "lack of a realistic floor" go away and leave the ratings in the tank.

Lighten up folks, and just enjoy the ride.

Cyrus, I use close-captioned and the song that you are referring to was Cat Stevens. CC always tells you the artist of the songs that are being played along with the words.

Karen, you must be a real music lover. You did a good job in guessing the "correct" artist voice!

I'm hooked. I don't think that brand new storylines/ideas need to be introduced in every episode of any show. I think they are building the characters in a way that you can start to relate with one/some of them. I hope The Nine starts to do better in the ratings, but this expectation of instant gratification from so many viewers may cause an early end to a great show.

What I'd like to know is where I can buy some of that wonderful, ultra-sound absorbant flooring they've got installed in that bank. What with the number of times that cell phone was sent sliding across the room, you'd have thought the one robber would have noticed, regardless of how much attention he was having to pay to the conversation at the front door. Nope. Not even a whisper from the phone, and not even a glance or a clue on the part of the robber. Ab-so-lute-ly silent.

Like I said, I gotta get me some of that flooring for my place.

I'm trying to stay with this one, sure common sense says use the desk phone, but if all the problems were resolved there wouldn't be any T.V. shows. Chi McBride does a terrific job as a father trying to help his daughter, but it sort of fell flat in the end when there was no trauma involved in Felecia's memory loss, she just felt guilty, those visits to the jail hinted at something a lot heavier. The worst thing that I can see is that every five, that's it five minutes they have five minutes of commercials, it is sort of difficult to stay interested when some guy is selling a car every few minutes just when something looks as if it is going to happen. Why are we still in the first hour when there are 51 more to go? I really want to like this show and I'll stay with it just out of couriosity, hate to leave anything unfinished.

This show is loosing me - I was really into it and recommending it to friends and now I don't know if I will watch - it's way too slow and predictable - plus we know all these people made it out of the bank which takes some of the tension out of the robbery scenes - omg she's on the phone will they catch her and kill her - well... no she's still alive - anyway there is hope but they have to pick up the pace

Some of these criticisms are close, but just off enough where I get a little chuckle. Yes, some of the writing is forced, but the interaction between Kathryn and Lizzie? It was obvious to me that they'd had a conversation in the bank that we were being let in on by the way the two interacted. Sure enough, it was revealed towards the end of the episode. Yes, it felt awkward at first because you can tell there's a history that you know nothing about, but unlike Lost, you're clued in pretty quickly. There was nothing wrong with that scene, if you watched the entire episode.

If you want to complain about how they used the cell phone to build tension in that scene, don't talk about how unlikely it would be for a teenager to try to work their way into the middle of the bank to get a signal, or the passing back and forth of the phone. At one point, she came out of a back office. Do you mean to tell me that there wasn't a single DESK PHONE back there that she could use? Who the hell continuously relies on a cell phone with bad reception in an emergency? (Yes, a teenager who's never had to be without a cell phone perhaps, but I find that hard to believe.)

One thing that I loved ... all of the Nine coming together at the end of the episode to help explain to Felicia what happened. I was afraid that the "weekly meeting at the diner" would be the lazy way to get them all together at the end of every show, but they've already mixed that up a bit, which was a nice touch. I also liked the doctor being terribly conflicted about wanting to kill a man, as well as the admission by Chi McBride's character that he wants his daughter to get past her issues so that he can start to deal with his own.

I really wasn't sure about this show at first, but it's definitely grabbed my attention now.

Last night's show really grabbed me then kind of fizzled out.

This is the one show that I really want to get into, but so far it hasn't met my expectations.

I'm trying to give this show a chance, but last night I found the flashback robbery scene to be "stupid" rather than "terrifying."

It is rather unrealistic to believe a 16-year-old would stupidly go into the middle of a robbery, rather than hide in the bathroom -- or sneak out a back door -- which I'm assuming ALL BANKS HAVE.

The scene where she is slinking around and popping up behind desks and sliding the phone back and forth was ridiculous. Was it meant to be humorous? If so, it certainly killed the "terror" they were trying to create.

Also, are we to believe that she couldn't get a signal for her phone anywhere else except dab smack in the middle of the bank? The writers are asking us to suspend quite a lot of disbelief to accept this scenario.

I don't know. I just don't like the character of Felicia Jones. She doesn't act like a teenager. She acts like a minature adult, and that annoys me. Her dad is so underdevelped as a character. There doesn't seem to be anything for him to do. And Felcia keeps yelling about her memory, which is annoying the hell out of me.

I thought this episode was terrific. One of the best yet. The character development was so well done. It's as if each new episode deepens the story, the characters, the tension.

I loved Egan working out to Cheap Trick. That slayed me.

Cyrus, I couldn't ID the song from the rooftop, but it sure sounded like Cat Stevens to me.
