The Event
MC
Event, so I went into it with low expectations - and I have to say I was
pleasantly surprised. Apart from the jumping around in time - which I
don't care for at the best of times - it held my attention really well.
I hope it doesn't degenerate into silliness as it progresses, but there
was certainly enough there to make me tune in again. Good production
values too.

Any guesses as to what The Event will actually turn out to be? My
guess is still either alien first contact, or The Rapture.

I know a dude who's on the show, and he tells me it's that there was a
political debate in which both sides made reasonable points that
didn't necessarily run along their stupidly polarized party lines. The
politicians in question were killed and all witnesses were sent
overseas via extreme rendition before it destroyed our political
system, talk radio, and cable news.
It's gonna be a tough sell when they reveal that, so they might just
go with time travel or some crap for the season finale.

My guess is that all of the plants in the world are going to release a
pheromone into the atmosphere that will cause all humanity to develop
the sudden uncontrollable instinct to stop watching shows like this
one.

You mean... (sputter, sputter)... Soylent Green is a plant?

Oh c'mon... We all know The Event -- and I mean The Big Event, the One That
Will Change The World -- will be an M. Night Shyamalan movie premier.

Wait a minute! Everybody shits all over Machete but The Ev3nt is
decent? And the event gets to do it for 12 hours? I watched it. The
toothy Disney brats can't act. I keep looking at Ritter and going,
there is the emotard from Freddy vs. Jason. His still got the same, "I
pooped my pants" look on his face as FvJ. Did it all start in Miami? I
think so, before it flashed back a bunch of leaps. Ooooooohhhhh. Is
Miami an Homage for Fort Lauderdale and the 6 fighter planes that went
missing (Close Encounters) or Amelia Earhart taking off from Miami?
We'll see where this thing goes. Those kids need acting classes fast.

Saw a snippet of the final episode script in a secret chat room.
That girl that jumped off the cruise ship was save by dolphins from a
navy
experiment to enhance the psychic abilities of fish. She becomes the
underwater
queen, unfortunately she is insane and uses her superpowerful snook
minions to
cause all the catastrophes. The last few thousand humans are kept
safely in
a bubble under the sea for the entertainment of the new super-
species.

It would seem that your first guess is correct, and The Event took
place in the past of this story's timeline.

Actually, that's the plot for Sharktopus...
