ok.. day break is such an awesome show I have to tell you all, it really puts everything else to shame
I'll just briefly explain it:
black cop is framed for the murder of a man he never met, he gets thrown in prison and late at night is forced out of his cell and taken to a quarry where he is shown a video of someone killing his girlfriend and watching his sister's family, they then tell him to stop claiming innocence and to confess for the murder, they inject him in the neck and he goes to sleep.
he wakes up, and the same birds are chirping on his window sill, the same couple jogging outside and his girlfriend wakes up much alive and says the same thing, at this point the name 'day break' makes sense.
and what really makes this show for me is no characters are idiots, Ive never watched an episode and been like "why didn't he do this and that!?"
so, obviously the cop is stuck in the same day until he presumably fixes everything and exposes the conspiracy. You have to appreciate the story, how the entire thing all pans out in one day and its so intricate, he explores a specific possibility each day and the outcome of each day varies a lot depending on his actions.
Ive always enjoyed the idea of the butterfly effect, and everyone loves time travel, throw in some excellent characters, excellent action scenes, an amazing story and youve got perfection
plus it's only going to be 13 episodes, so its a very tight experience that isn't stretched out for the sake of airing longer.
