They sold the premise well enough that the security footage at the end creeped me out the way a just-off-kilter-from-realistic nightmare will creep me out.
My dvr cut off just when Cho comes over to watch. What's on it?
Angel: Is that what you think you are--a hero? Spike: Saved the world didn't I? Angel: Once. Talk to me after you've done it a couple more times.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
There's a stadium in Detroit where a man is up and walking when the rest of the world is blacked out. The episode's on Hulu if you want to see the footage for yourself.

Thanks! Do you know if they only repeated the pilot, or are they always going to re-run on Friday?

As far as I know, it's only for the pilot.

FF: Saw it. Liked it. And yeah, when footage of a guy walking around is creepy, you know they sold the premise. (Might have been a woman. Had long hair. I think.)

The person struck me as being a man with a hood. But I cannot believe there aren't more "people" out there who knew what was coming and immune to this occurrence.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
They did a really nice job of obscuring gender on the person at the ballpark.
There may have been more people, just not in places with cameras.
Also, dude, if you want to change the future, put the bracelet on the other wrist. IJS. Because what he could remember of the Mosaic board was pretty clearly exactly what was written on those yellow notes on his memory of the board, too, which points to a closed-loop, predestined situation.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It may just come down to Sam and Dean's attempts to change the future. Sure, dean orders a tofu burger, but they bring him the cheeseburger he'd have gotten instead. Letters fall off signs to make new words...
Pretty thin stretch for even just one season.
But I'm rooting for that cast. And I have to go see where I recognise the babysitter from. Aha. Daybreak.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
But that doesn't mean you don't try, I think.
