Eternity - Episode 1x02 - Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

Wow. That ending was simply... wow. I never expected him to stop living the day over and over again. I thought that this would be something that didn’t happen until the movie that ends the entire series. As I said... wow.

To be honest, I didn’t enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed the pilot. I had some problems with this episode, more so then the first. I’ll get to the good first though. First off, the script kept me sucked into the story, and any time that happens (although it’s not difficult to do), you know that the script was good - at least for me. The story in itself is so perplexing that you tend to not be able to put it down.

The music cues were great. Especially the final song. It literally ended right as I finished the script. Perfect timing. The song added so much, as without the music, the scene would have seemed so bland and simple. But, the music added the emotion needed for the ending and makes me think back on the scene in a different light.

Now for some of the bad points that I want to bring up. First, I’m not liking Charley nearly s much as I did in the first episode. His mind set was always strange, even in the pilot. This time, however, his reactions seemed much different than it would be for somebody in real life. For example, his lies to Joanne. How come, on the day he was trying to end things, would he make the horrible decision to say he was visiting Starlight? It makes no sense as to why he did that. If it had been me, I would have tried to save my marriage, just in case I did indeed fix things.

Despite my issues with Charley in this episode, I still thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t wait to read more. I don’t see how the series can really continue without Charley repeating the day. If he does begin repeating another day, I’m interested to see whether it’ll be the very next day, or later on. I can’t wait! :)

Jimbo’s Next Theory
My gut instinct is telling me that Charley will begin repeating another day. The only thing that I have no clue on is when he’ll begin repeating another day, as well as what the new and interesting circumstances would be.
