The premiere was okay.

Kinda, sorta hoped they'd build up the black out more.

Gets a 6 out of 10 from me. The whole ninja, I can take out 42 militia people by myself was way over the top. Planes falling out of the sky....uh, ok, whatever you say. The poisen in the whiskey thing was kinda cool tho...didn't see that coming. The British woman was the most interesting character of the lot.

I do like the concept of war lords, militia, etc. I think that is exactly what would occur in this type situation.

Not great, but I hated it less than I expected, after reading some early reviews. Has promise I think.

Yea, thats pretty stupid. Theres a reason guns replaced sticks, stones, knives and swords as mans weapon of choice.

yeah, i wanna know what happens directly after the black out. I know we will get flash backs, but it would be cool if they started it from there rather then 15 years down the line. 15 years down the line does give them ALOT to work with though. 15 years of flashback content is alot.

they said that guns were banned and its pretty illegal to even have one for whatever type of rules they did have.

Thoughts

1. It was a little goofy.
2. Still better than the stuff SyFy puts out
3. Liked it more than I liked the pilot of Terra Nova
4. If they could show blood it would be better. That fight seemed too fake...
5. I will keep watching

Agreed. The electricity went out, plane went down - blew up, then boom 15 years later.

WTF.

i have no idea why they cant show blood, Everyone has seen 24 and that show pushed and pushed and pushed the limits of brutal killings n regular tv.

Wow, that sounds even worse than I imagined. Thanks for posting this synopsis!

I liked it. Will definitely be watching in the future. I don't think the mom (Juliet from LOST) is actually dead.

Bump 09-18-2012 10:17 PM

watched the first one. I'm interested.

Rausch 09-18-2012 11:00 PM

Not bad. Has potential...

Truth is, its not that bad. Its a bit cheesy, but there is some good stuff in there like Giancarlo. Dude is made to play a bad guy. Also, the brother who was some kind of special black ops guy back before the black out.

Though, for 15 years down the line people dress to clean, not all, but some.

Bump 09-18-2012 11:50 PM

was the black dude in Breaking Bad?
