    "Day Break" asks viewers for faith, to believe unanswered questions will not go unanswered forever, and that every episode will be worth experiencing. For now, I'm willing to take that leap of faith, because the action is swift, the acting is taut and the premise is cool.

    It may not be blessed with the most felicitous dialogue of all time, but "Day Break" is a solidly constructed and fast-paced drama.

    They say insanity is performing the same action repeatedly and hoping for a different outcome. For ABC and "Day Break," insanity may be expecting viewers to watch the same day over and over and be interested in the infinite minor and major variations.

    I am sick to death of these kinds of shows. It was extremely boring. This guy has a sister who looks nothing like him and another exotic looking girl friend who looks - well a alot like his sister. We're suppose to care about who these people are and what's happening to them. I don't think so. I like Taye Diggs and I wish he could find a good show or movie but this is not it, this is not it.… Expand
