    Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
    Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
    Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
    Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
    pasquett A good, complex conspiracy at a steady high pace.It's a shame, but I understand why it was taken of the air after just 6 episodes. It's simply too complex to be "mainstream easy entertainment". Too many leads and entanglements. But when that's said… it's a really good show. I actually had not expected it to be worth watching, but I just had to see what came next and how they would get out of this one. The many angles on the case are brilliant. You very often ask yourself "what would have happened if this and that". Here you actually get the answer to those questions. Well acted on all parts, doesn't make it worse that Moon Bloodgood plays the part as the girlfriend. Loved it. … but kind of hard to make a new season :-)
    StooBush Clayton Rohner? Yep, the dude who got the guy/girl Terry in "Just One of the Guys." Apparently he did it. So he's God, or something fairly close to it, 'cause he's the one (cleaned up from his scruffy Jared character) at the end of the finale looking on as things return to normalcy for Brett et al. Makes me wonder if he appears in episodes where Jared doesn't in other disguises.So it's over. Most of the baddies get their comeuppance; Mitch Pileggi turns out to be good; and Adam Baldwin turns out to be bad, and yet he escapes to somewhere. Nice switcheroo there.Great show. Great finale. ABC should've aired it instead of reruns of According to Jim and The George Lopez Show. If it's ever released on DVD, it better have a lot of extras, 'cause I don't know how re-watchable this series is. But, then again, since no one watched it in the first place, it may do quite well.Yet another example of Hollywood's inability to differentiate the good from the bad.One question, though. What happened to Margo?
    Ausir2001 Perhaps one the jewels in modern TV viewing experience. Day Break has all of the elements to create a cult-like following and it is savvy. As the season (episodes) progress, Day Break exceeds it stereotype genre (Groundhog's Day, Deja Vu, Memento, The Time Machine, Pulp Fiction et al) by evolving through all of its similarities of the aforementioned action- thrillers. Essentially, Brett Hopper, played brilliantly by Taye Diggs, coalesces into all of the central heroic characters of these action dramas,thereby embodying there strengths and vulnerabilities as he attempts to manipulate his micro-environment; ultimately resulting in a dynamic varied sequences of consequential events that re-animate the plot and the rising action/conflict. There can be very convincing arguments that the dynamically evolving plot becomes worthy of an 'Odyssey' with the familiarly essential themes of LOVE, Vengefulness, Sorrow, & Hope. Day Break cannot be viewed or taken casually, as it require the viewer to pay attention to nuances and details otherwise taken completely for granted by very common-like formulaic genre driven TV shows; which in my opinion constitutes at least 85% of TV programming - exception being cable. Perhaps one of the cable networks will place 'correct' value of this brilliant show and continue to produce it into a second season. Lastly, I find that neither Americal Idol, Prison Break, or 24 could ever achieve what Day-Break has in just 13 episodes.
    moneysmith-1 "Day Break" was such an original, inventive show, I'm really sorry it won't be on any longer. The premise was great, and the acting, writing and directing were all terrific, much more interesting in most prime time TV. What is ABC thinking? They air some of the lamest programming around, but when a quality show comes along, they dump it because only 4.4 million people were watching? Nice. How many people watched "24" during its first season? As far as I can tell, you can't even see the "Day Break" episodes online any longer. ABC has removed the show from the website, as though it never even existed. And network executives wonder why they're losing viewers.
