Did the front brakes on one truck. First day in two months I can walk without a cane. I'm worried how I might feel tomorrow.

Yep, right up until the time you get a cancer diagnosis with a five year survivability rate of less than 50%.

In addition, it has some threads that will continue between shows rather than being more episodic. While the leap teaser is still there at the end of each, there is some back story they'll get to carry between episodes.

The pilot episode was decent but it does feel like a pilot episode (even though I understand it's actually the second pilot, and the first pilot is being used as the 6th episode).
Set my Tivo to record it here on out.
