Meh. Another typical show where the creators clearly woke up with an idea for half of their story, successfully pitched it, and will now make it up as they go along. These types of shows are all very similar in that they are very slow to develop due to the lack of a thoroughly flushed out storyline. Because of this, the show lacks necessary intrigue and the occasional efforts to drop in an mysterious omnidirectional subplot leaves the viewer disinterested.
Started out with a new and interesting theme. Some of the acting is terrible and one of the main characters consistently looks puzzled, no matter what emotion he is supposed to be portraying. Getting past his annoyingly horrific on screen persona is very problematic as he is so unbelievable when he is mad or sad or happy....he just always looks dumbfounded, sort of like a deer in headlights and it is very distracting from the plot.
They need to pick up the pace of this because it is starting to DRAG with very boringly predictable plot lines of the government vs them.
It has a LOT of potential and I would hate to see it canceled before the big reveal.
OMG! I expected a lot more from Bob Zemeckis, but I guess you can't be a winner all the time? The worst part for me is the acting, pretty much across-the-board except for a scant few! The kid who plays Cal Stone, is clearly dead inside, but for me the worst is his dad Ben, who obviously subscribes to the Joey Tribbiani School of "smell the fart acting"! I don't know how many more of his scrunched-up expressions I can take? It started out a good premise, now I nearly cringe to watch it!
I just took this show off my dvr. I can't stick in there anymore. It's season 3 now and we still have no answers whatsoever. I REPEAT... three seasons of this show and we're just a clueless as we we're from day one. All the storylines drag on like molasses dripping from a tree. At least we get sustenance and something satisfying from molasses but we're getting absolutely NOTHING from this show. Snails move faster than these storylines. What a shame, it started off so well in season 1 but now it's feeling like Lost. No way am I going down that road again. Forget it... I'm out!
I can clearly see it. Someone goes "Hey, I had an interesting idea for a tv show. About two hundred people board on a plane and when they land, 5 years have passed, while for them only a few hours. Sounds good, right?". So they pitch the idea to a network, it gets picked and handed to a bunch of freshmen in writing school to develop it. I mean, seriously. What in the world is this? How does anyone in their right mind thinks the viewers are gonna buy such lazy writing? I'm honestly baffled that this show is scored at a 7.2 right now. It must be some sort of manipulation by the network to fool the unwarned. Please, do not spend your time on this. This is the kind of show that treats the viewer like a brainless moron and doesn't even feel sorry about it.
Really liked the beginnings and I had a lot of promise...until. Until I realized the producers must have been recruited from The Bold and the Beautiful or Greys Anatomy. It's basically a soap opera body with sci fi legs on it. I get the odd feeling they are gonna get dropped after season 1
Like most supernatural dramas on network television, this one is high on concept and low on story. This is turning into This is Us weepy relationship schmaltz.
Now it's basically a soap box opera, overly melodramatic with very little mystery, if any. People constantly arguing is not entertaining to me.
I just watched all 16 episodes back to back and I will admit I did a lot of FF to get through all of the blahdy blahdy blah blah but in the end, I know nothing more now than I did after watching the first episode. Which is nothing.
This is one of those shows that does nothing but create spots for commercials which is what I imagine it was designed for however watching it on PPV leaves little to be desired and they could at least have ended season one with some sort of explanation of anything that is going on but no, but they don't and since it will probably get canceled after this, there is really not much point in watching it even for the entertainment value because there is none. Do your self a favor and skip it.
Started off good now it's dragging, needs more scify again like the trailer gave us in the beginning.
