The first 13 minutes are up on ABC.com

I was looking forward to it, after looking at the preview I can't wait to see it. Hope it does well.

I saw the pilot a few weeks back. I liked it, but it certainly could be better. I think future episodes will be.

I'm looking forward to it because of the cast.. and the fact that the creator of Everwood is now the showrunner gives me more reason to.

I think The Lady who played Ally is in Brothers and Sisters.

I thought the first 12 minutes was mildly interesting. I really wasn't that enthusiastic about the show, but that clip did make me feel a bit better about it. Maybe it'll be decent afterall...

I'm really excited for this show for many reasons, one of them being that Greg Berlanti is now behind the scenes!!!

I found it very boring and stopped watching after 30 minutes. I kept it on as background noise while I surfed the internet, and recorded the entire thing, so if I have time, I might check out the rest, but I was not impressed with what I saw.

I've seen a lot of mixed reviews on some boards ... definitely should be interesting.

I found the cast to be fantastic. Unfortunately, I think there was just too much going on. It didn't flow well until the last 10 minutes -- which were FANTASTIC.

It needs a little more focus and flow but other than that, it was great. I can't wait until episode 2.

I thought it was good but not great...but then again, I am going to keep watching just bc I think that the cast is so good that it could get better. Again, I think that it's one of those pilots that may not be telling of how the series could really do.

I watched "Brothers and Sisters" tonight. it was interesting. The first 20 minutes or so were kinda drawn out. They weren't telling us anything, but as the hour went on we started seeing all these questions being thrown around about the Dad and the woman, the uncle and their money, the daughter's rocky marriage, the mom and kitty's strained relationship, the wild younger brother, and the gay one. They all had something. The cast is great. One of the best right now. I didn't think the Pilot said much, it basically set the show up for future storylines. It has a lot of potential, I hope they do it right.

I give the Pilot episode a 7/10.
