The most boring and unbelievable bicycle chase ever, like the show.
First 2 episodes are pretty bad, but you think it might be going somewhere so you hang in there.. and then it becomes a Climitard series about ending all petroleum thereby eliminating travel, transport etc. with ZERO ideas on how to replace said petroleum, transport etc.
Completely idiotic... power is out so everyone has literally tons of candles burning all at the same time - while watching TV and operating their computers with multiple monitors... I'll need to see if that will work in my house - candle powered computer, hmmm
The blind kid it annoying as hell and irrelevant to the entire story other than why they actually went to Paris.
BTW... I'm not spoiler alerting anyone.. I'm saving them from wasting their time.
1/10
Count me in the minority that thought that this show as mostly OK. I enjoy doomsday type shows, I think you can teach yourself things about that possible outcome and postulating on what you might do or not do in the same situation.
There is a very heavy agenda-driven underlying theme of this show that detracts from everything.
The show is basically about what the world would do if the oil was all contaminated, that's fine, it's worth wondering. The problem is that the show ends on that all of this suffering was worth it because the world is so much more amazing when oil isn't in the picture any longer. They fail to showcase the fact that there would probably be a 90% die off of humanity from hunger, violence, lack of medical care and so forth, but it's all worthwhile because no more oil. The better outcome should be that they fix the oil but realize we rely on it too much and allocate far more resources to supplementing it and thus find a happy balance, but the climate nuts can't have that, it must be that oil is the root of all evil.
Will I ever watch this again? No, most certainly not (especially after the unicorn and rainbow ending). Do I regret watching it? Not really, it was an interesting piece of fantasy to replace an otherwise crappy TV schedule that hasn't seen hardly any worthwhile shows in several years.
I did realize that it's not that I didn't like Matthew Fox in Lost, I just don't like him at all, in anything. He has no depth, he's just being himself and repeating some lines, that is the extent of his limited acting skills. I mean, good for him, I can't act so he's better than me, but he's not on par with other excellent actors out there either - far from it.
Righteous woke BS. All potential wasted.
I held out hope that this could emerge as a great show. At first I thought that to root the action, adventure in such a close parallel to our world, setting it in recognizable international locations, crowded with people going about their lives, was a great shift from dystopias that begin in unpeopled wastelands. It was good to see Joanne Froggatt but her story arc was fragmented from an already fractured storyline. None of the characters were drawn with any complexities and all was lost by the time we got to a very disappointing finale. The series began to lose credibility when people without electricity could still watch TV and governments still had full access to all surveillance capabilities. When the series stopped grounding its action, adventure in believable consequences of a catastrophe, it lost me. I can’t even give this a 6 (fair) rating. It all fell apart, episode by episode. I give this series a 4 (forgettable) out of 10. [Near Future Dystopia]
Silly little series! Terrible unimaginable woke plot!
