Did anyone else watch the 2 hour premiere last night? What are your thoughts? I personally loved it and it looks like it'll only get better.

Really, it was that good? I wanted to watch it but I missed it.

My intentions were to watch, but I missed it too but I've heard that it was really good. It also did decent with ratings, 1.6 million in the first hour, 1.4 in the second. Not great, but not bad for a new show on MTV.

I thought those were considered good ratings? & yeah it was really good IMO. I would really recommend watching it. ETA: nvm I was confusing 1.6 and 1.4 with the 0.7 and 0.6 it received.

I honestly loved it. The best MTV show to come out in awhile. I wonder where they're gonna go with it, I don't think it can last long if only based around her trying to find her identity. A fresh idea, great writing, love the character detail...and I love her brother. Does anyone know where I can find a video of the season sneak peak? My DVR cut it off :(

Great show!

Nope.Especially after other series they cancelled in favor of this and Faking It and Virgin Territory.

Watching it now Edit: well it's alot better than faking it; i'll give it that

Hahaha really loved the premiere, it made me cry multiple times. You can't help but feel sympathy for carters abductor/ other mom. Can't wait to see how the series plays out.

The only thing is the fact that a couple of L&O cast members are on this show. Everything else is pretty much cheesy.

This comes on tonight at 10 for those of you that wanna watch it!

Can't find the ratings posted anywhere :| I really really hope this show doesn't get cancelled halfway through like House of Food

According to tvbythenumbers, it got 1.2 million viewers and a 0.6 in the demo. Not that bad.

Must have missed it. I checked twice too lmao. Thanks!

Can someone please explain to me what is this show about, I heard some friends talk about it and I was curious to check what it is and I wanted to ask you guys if it's worth watching.

Definitely worth watching! You should be hooked from the premiere. There's really no other show like it. It deals with hard teen issues accompanied with the harsh realities of kidnapping and the effects on the family members involved. Cool little love triangles and shady business, I would highly recommend if you like that kind of stuff haha!

I'm just waiting for the plot twist that her original family kidnapped her as well :P and Lori is actually her real mom LOL (unlikely)

I'm thinking her kidnapper is a schizo and lost a baby and thinks Carter is really hers or something lol. I wanna know about "there's things you should know."

SO funny you say that, right after my last post I was thinking "maybe her kidnapper and dad had an affair"

Maybe Lori and her dad had an affair, then her dad nd Elizabeth took Carter as their own (raised it) but Lori wanted her back. idk.

Which could possibly tie into why he asked "what do you think happened to your dad?" Idk cuz she's a twin though, but they look fraternal not identical

the only thing with that is, is that if indeed carter is actually the result of the affair, then lori really could've just asked for custody.. like..... why kidnap? *sigh* yeah did lori dye her hair or something? how come they both don't have blond hair?

I think maybe if you sign your rights, you wouldn't be able to? But then again that theory doesn't work because her mom would have know right away who kidnapped her

At first I thought Lori must have died Carters hair because that's what kidnappers do to hide lol. And maybe Lori and Carters dad had an affair and she probably just wanted him to leave Elizabeth so she could be mom to the girls because she felt Elizabeth didn't give them enough attention. But he wouldn't leave his wife... so she took one of the twins. Just a crazy way off theory haha can't wait to find out more about Lori.

It all depends on if they're fraternal twins or identical. I mean they sure as hell don't look identical. If they're fraternal, then it's two seperate eggs getting fertilized so it's very possible one is blonde and one is brunette. However they haven't discussed this topic yet. I can kinda see similarities but at the same time I don't at all. But it is true that kidnappers tend to dye their child's hair too. Ugh this show is so addicting, so many mysteries. I can't wait til next episode! That sneak peak is killing me with anticipation!

Or maybe, she really wanted a kid and was promised Carter (via adoption) bt then they backed out so uh she kidnapped her. OR we're just really over thinking this and Lori really did just kidnap carter for god knows what reason
