Do you really think it will make it past season 1? It seemed to copy the general format and style of Flash Forward, although the pilot of Flash Forward was of higher quality in every measurable way... from directing to film quality, to audio, to acting, to script, to plot, etc.
I agree that the first episode was messy and unpolished. And when you have a show with a continuing storyline, it's vital to get people hooked in the first episode if you want to maintain ratings. Some of it was rather stupid. For example, the air marshal pointed a gun at someone he thought was a hijacker and trying to get into the cockpit, and then they hear a gunshot come from the cockpit and all of a sudden that means the first person who was trying to get into the cockpit was innocent. WTF? The episode also showed this person pull a gun, and then later on in a clip showed him back in his plane seat. Confusing, messy.
Apparently, the new V series barely made the cut. Ridiculous execs at ABC decided to air a few episodes to see if people would like it, and if so put it back on months later. How absurd. Of course they lost a huge chunk of their viewers after this happened, which meant at the end of the season it just barely managed not to get cancelled.
