Past Life Forums

Well my first high profile show as editor and I haven't even watched it yet. Watching tonight.

i enjoyed it

also i feel it's appropriate it's taking over Fringe's time slot, i feel Fringe fans will enjoy it too :]

The underlying problem with this show is the fact that it deals with past lives and treats itself seriously. If like me you feel that having past lives is a load of poo, it may detract from enjoying the show, I'll see how it goes. Other than that the usual psychology, forensics and a bit of mystery.

I have only one word to describe it - Boring. We have bunch of people doing some detective work ,we have some mystery and all that isn't even very interesting. Castle and Beckett, Pete and Myka, Gene and Alex Drake, Olivia and Peter, and so on are doing much better these kind of things. Which started my wondering if there is some standard that there must always be woman/man pair in these kind of shows in these days.

this will never replace Fringe, but hopefully can hold me over until it returns :]

Just wondering if anyone knows what song was playing during the last scene of the pilot episode for Past Life. Thanks for your time!

looooove Coldplay :]

Yeah, I'm not a believer but my sister is and she loves the show. They may add more complexity as it goes on, and it looks as though there will be a new person each week regressing, which is something new and opens the door for possible guest stars in possible multiple episode story arcs (if the network allows that). So the show does have potential and doesn't deserve the 6.7 rating. Fringe handles ambiguous topics but manages to get away with it.

Well I remember two of my past lives in detail and am a strong believer in reincarnation. This show still requires suspension of disbelief as the story is a bit too convenient. But I thought the leads have good chemistry and the story was well-written so I'm willing to give it a go. It is nice finally to have some show about past lives / reincarnation because I often feel like I'm the only person who believes in this stuff. I also really enjoy shows like Medium even though I really don't buy into the whole "talking to dead people" thing.

Still as far as real vs. fantasy it is a bit of a stretch for a "past life investigator" organization to exist, but I suppose it is no worse than other shows like Lie To Me.

The pilot left me flat, not very impressed. Gone to give it a couple more episodes but I see no future.

Well, I'm sad to see it canceled because I appreciated the fact that there was a show about having a past life on at ALL. It shows that the subject matter is becoming a little more mainstream, which is beneficial over-all. Just as with the ghost shows (Ghost Whisperer, Medium, Paranormal State, etc) by exposing the subject matter to a wider audience, it's helping to enlighten people who care to watch. However, I can see why it got canceled. It just skipped too many important areas that's known about reincarnation nor cohesive enough in it's storyline for those of us who are true believers... and we're the root audience for subjects like this. If we can't swallow it, then those who know nothing about past lives or worse, those who are real skeptics, surely won't watch it.
