Daybreak: I don't think it's Going to make it

Well, I liked Daybreak, and no one else did. Or rather, those who like Lost, knowing it wasn't going to be there, well, they just decided to try something else.

If you haven't heard about the show, the basic premise is that Taye Diggs's Brett Hopper is a cop being forced to relive a day where he is framed for the murder of an Assistant District Attorney and his friends and family are under threat from an unknown group. It sounds like a topic that has been done many times on film and in print, but there is one distinct difference that makes it different... if he gets hurt during the course of a day, that injury carries over to when the day starts to repeat, so I assume that if he dies, he's dead and the cycle stops, though that still remains to be seen.

But given how bad its ratings were, well, it's a goner, and I know it. No repeats, just oblivion.
