"Pilot" is a promising pilot of this series created by J. J. Abrams among other writers. The genre can not be labeled (maybe the same of "X-Files") and the line between heroes and villains is blurred. Anna Torv, Joshua Jackson and John Noble perform interesting characters with great lines. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Pilot"
