I've been watching it for the past few weeks since the new season started and it seems like it lacks the pizazz of the 1st season. Tonight there was an edge-of-your-seat scene at the end (the kid with the gun on the teacher) but we had to sit through 45 minutes of lackluster show before it got to that.

I'm not too excited about this second season. More and more questions and still no answers.

I compliment USA on their pretty good job of coming up with their own interesting unique original show, but it doesn't seem to be leading anywhere.

If you watch shows like Without a Trace, or CSI, or The Practice or whatever, there is always an ending to the story, or at least progress toward one.

I know the 4400 is a longer story than a missing person or a murder or a criminal trial but I don't see any progress being made in the show toward the answers to all these questions (where were they for all those years? Why do they have special powers? etc.)

What do you think?
