The first season is somewhat interesting if you don’t get too frustrated by how far fetched it is. However, the second season is absolutely horrible.

The concept is really cool, I love this sci-fi which is very close to our reality, a bit like METRO.

This was much more interesting than I expected based on the trailers. I would recommend watching it blind. You'll know by the end of the first episode whether this is something that will interest you or not. I'm really excited to see where the show goes next. Excellent performances and a really interesting story. Season 2 got even better, although I'd prefer a longer season. Look forward to more!

Becomes something quite different than what I signed up for after the initial twist. It still has good moments later on, but I kinda wish the first episode and initial premise had just been a two hour movie instead.

Great suspense here- S1 Episode 7 rocks! S1: 81st percentile

Sterling K. Brown is a phenomenal actor and this gives him a vehicle to truly relay that to audiences around the world. The worry for this one which was easily quelled was whether the story would be deep enough to carry through. It easily was and they set up enough elements for the second season and beyond to make you invest in whatever this story will choose to do.

I enjoy me some post apocalyptic slop, and this one is pretty sloppy. Its got a pretty good cast, no real issues there. Some fun world building and backstory. The real issue is once it gets going it relies way too much on gotchas and forced complicated conspiracy. You could do a lot worse if you like the genre but it probably won't stick with you a long time.

Best, solid world building 💪
