Question Day Break finalé question - spoiler

First what a great series, extremely enjoyable.


- Anyone want to take a stab at explaining the ending, with the suited Clayton Rohner who played the surfer dude, watching Hooper, Rita and sister and the dog out for a walk.

- Also the re-living the same day, what was causing that, apart from the writers!.

Was this series ended short on 1, and might of carried on and explained the above in season 2?

My take on it was that Jarod was some sort of....for want of a better word....divine being who made Hopper relive the same day over and over till he got it right. (Took me a while to realise he was the same dude at the end as he looked so different)

The series was only ever supposed to be 13 episodes as it was made to fill in during the mid season hiatus for Lost but surprise surprise Fox (I think they made it) decided to drop it after airing about 3 episodes in the US - thankfully we got the whole lot

Tell me about it, his face rang a bell, and i kept thinking did he pop up in one of the episodes as i been waching it very slowly over months, and searching for the ending on the web, his name came up!.

Didnt really need him in the end, worked with him, suppose the writers threw in a little twist for us.

Divine, erm doesnt really fit into the whole thriller feel of it, bit of a cop-out



Anyway enjoyed the experience.

Yeah, make some cash while the show was still in peoples minds especially those that may not have seen all the eps. That said it's not a show I could watch again even for Moon in her red undies virtually every week, nice to see her still in her underwear in Journeyman
