Oh boy, a clip show !!! Can't get enough of those....

[Actually, as much as I wanted this program to be entertaining and succeed, after about the third week I found myself rooting for whoever dropped the nukes albeit slightly cursing them for missing the disfunctional little burg of Jericho. It only supports my theory that when H-bombs are being tossed about, the best place to be is close enough to read the serial number]

My sister lived in Philadelphia for a while. She always said, if they drop the bomb, she'd pull out a lawn chair, put on some sunglasses and wait for the instant tan...

Did anyone else notice a frame or two of text that was randomly inserted into the middle of this clip episode (during one of those "Hawkins at the laptop" bridge scenes)? It passed by way too fast for me to read, but it looked like an email software screen with the font size way too large. It did not look like a local (WFSB-DT in CT) glitch, but I guess it could have been. I'd love to see a screencap if someone captured the episode.

I'm glad it's finally back. Can't wait for the real new episode next week.

I saw it and after numerous attempts to freeze it at the exact millisecond it flashed by, I finally caught it. All it basically said was something about Gray Anderson doing searches and questioning locals. I have no idea why that flashed if it didn't give any info that we haven't already known. Here I was expecting to see a spoiler for the show, possibly related to Hawkins, but it was absolutely nothing.

The thing I found odd was that there was a real credit roll at the end. CBS didn't squash the credits, reformat them and run promos during the time they were on. It was kind of nice to have just the music and actually be able to read them (unlike when they do the shrunken "flip card" style in the side strip where they run by at lightning speed).

Despite being old information, it was nice to get a refresher.

So, anyone catch what the morse code messages in the titles said?

Overnight Ratings for Wednesday, February 14th

"Fox, of course, led the midweek troops on the strength of blockbuster American Idol, which scored a typically mammoth 28.54 million viewers and a 12.1 rating/29 share among adults 18-49 at 9 p.m. But since there is more to an evening than American Idol, let’s begin with 8 p.m.

Fox’s Bones opened on a winning note at 12.36 million viewers and a 4.1/17 among adults 18-49 at 8 p.m… CBS special Return of Jericho, which featured a look back at the previously telecast episodes, took a major backseat at 7.69 million viewers (#2) and a 2.1/ 6 among adults 18-49 (#4)….”

Was last nights recap shown in HD?

My local channel was showing it in SD... maybe IT'S because of the blizzard of 2007!

It was a HD broadcast here in Connecticut. WFSB must have had enough time to chip the 6" of sleet and ice from their dishes.

Tom Imp, thanks for the info on the strange frame, though I am even a little more confused about it now. :)
