Very slow, very boring, very pretentious, very crap, I would rather sever my leg than sit through another episode.
This show is great & amazing scenery. Makes me want to visit Montana.
Is this based on the Hugh Howey (Wool/Silo) novel?
I missed an action TV show like this since banshee
wai, why y'all haitn on Kaley?
Please please please don’t suck!!!
People downvoting this like we know anything at all about the show.
Dont understand why rating shows/episodes before the release date is still a thing.
Surprised people seem to not like it as much as I do. For context, I am a late 30s white male and usually get annoyed by thrown in your face gender politics but this didn't do that to me. Amazing acting and I was intrigued with all 3 episodes so far. Guess I am blind to something others can see. I also feel like it is trying to give both sides to all stories. Just watch the amazing actors do their thing.
Making it in B&W. Why? It isnt clever or cool, just annoying.
The production value on this is visablly fucking insane. What a gorgeous show.
And with only 2 episodes out I am already hooked like haven't been by a show in a long time.
EDIT after full first season:
Damn, I'm disappointed right now. It started off so well with the first episode. But with each passing episode it felt more like two different shows. One on Trantor about Empire. Which was fucking amazing science fiction and mesmerizing to watch. But also one on Terminus about the Foundation itself. Which felt like a cheap SyFy spinoff in the same universe. Very bizarre.
Still an entertaining watch throughout but it could have been so much better.
BTW. I haven't read the books.
Here we go again - another mystery type show that will get cancelled before any answers or conclusions to the story.
Easily one of the best shows out right now. I'm truly sad it was only 10 episodes but the best shows usually are short just to keep us wanting more. It could be my ties to growing up in the area but the characters and plot were so driven that I was hooked.
Watched the first 2 episodes, can't wait for the rest.
Episode 1 is kinda slowish, but it's getting us familiar with the people.
Episode 2 is much better and has some action.. now it's starting to really get interesting.
8/10
A couple of What the... moments.
Dad and kid are driving down the road. Both are sitting on their seatbelts. Dad swerves as he's looking at the government agents behind him - they're both wearing their seatbelts!
The kid jumps into the back of the van and puts on his seatbelt, but when mum hits the brakes to look at the cops - he's in the front seat!
The big shootout. They've killed the guys - why wouldn't you take their truck. Why in the world would you walk in the desert?!!!!
I don’t get the negativity. Honestly you people are so entitled. The lack of context is intentional and there are several clues as to why it’s that way. It’s not a 50s to show (we haven’t seen them imitate a 60s tv show yet, that’s next week). It’s going to change probably every week, even up to the point of imitating modern tv shows like the office from what they’ve said. And the context is clear enough by the end of the second episode. Even without reading additional articles to explain the more subtle hints, you can tell what’s going on at least loosely. Plus it does a great job lampooning the absurdity of 50s tv and ideals about homemaking and marriage. To hilarious effect
sigh Yet another good show canceled. This one didn't even get to finish out its entire first season. Not sure if, when or where I'll be able to find the final 4 episodes of season 1 as only 6 have been made available so far.
This was a bit of a mash-up of "Wisdom of the Crowd" and "Person of Interest". But it was still enjoyable. I would have loved to have gone along for the ride to see where it would take us.
UPDATE:
Got to see the remaining episodes of season 1. Very glad they released them. It wrapped up the storyline very nicely, but also left it open for the story to continue - which we already know it will not.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
Wow only a 61% rating and it hasn't even been released yet. It's so bad people from the future built a time machine just to travel back to warn us!
Most of the first episode was almost unwatchable. I was disinterested in the characters.
The first two episodes were fantastic. It's silly to compare this to game of thrones or hotd considering how antithetical the source materials are to one another. The trailers and character posters looked like they had some spotty cgi and tacky costumes but it all looks stunning in this nearly billion dollar first season. It's already better than any of the hobbit movies and im wildly excited for whats to come after tempered expectations before watching.
This has a great premise and the possibility of being a great show, but if the Brits were doing it they'd make it spectacular and in 8 episodes or less. This is a typical American "how-can-we-drag-a-short-story-into-5-season-before-killing-it-unexpectedly” show waiting to happen. I want to love it, but it just drags on and on. 6/10
Update - someone put a bullet in the back of it's head... about 4 episodes too late. Painfull to watch the further along it went.
I could not stop watching this!!! I casually watched the first episode, then by day 2, I was finished lol. Great surprise with this one. I was able to keep up with all the twists and turns and I can't wait to see what season 2 brings us! Georgia is so badass. I can't front though... I'm rooting for JOE!!!!!
homie, they got walton FUCKING goggins up in this bitch
Having been a die-hard fan of the video games I have high hopes (but low expectations) that this show will be awesome! I felt Silo had a very Fallout feel to them and if this is at least as good as Silo has been then this will be a winner!
7/10 good
Okay this is never going to win any awards!
But it sure is entertaining and good fun to watch, 80% of the cast are good and turn in great performances, the other 20% are just terrible and do detract from the show.
It does move fast and has no time for letting you stop and think, they give you the information and move on to the next scene, give you the information again and move on again, which is okay :thumbsup:
I think this is going to be my guilty pleasure….
Sit down, watch and enjoy!!!!
We gave it 18 minutes... 18 very long, very painful minutes. It's disjointed, has no direction and isn't the remotest bit funny - it's supposed to be a comedy - somebody missed the memo. The characters are completely uninteresting too.
1/10
It is my opinion this show has so far got it right by ANNE RICE!!
Had no high hopes after the last few seasons of Game of Thrones - but after watching S01E01, I think this is worth giving a chance.
All the important pieces were present in the first episode; good writing, visuals, acting.
The CGI looks cheap, but there's not a lot of it (except dragons of course). Some gory practical effects, those all looked good.
+Update after 4 episodes: The season is only improving so far. Worth following. Actress Milly Alcock as princess Rhaenyra stands out from a an overall good cast.
++Update after 8 episodes: As the story made a time jump a couple of episodes back, half the cast were replaced by "older" versions. I wouldn't have minded the new actors if that were the only change, but the writing also weirdly changed - It does not feel like we are following the same characters. Which makes the whole thing fairly boring, no matter how grand the CG vistas or sets.
I might catch up with the last few episodes at some point, but if anyone is wondering whether or not to get into this - I'd say maybe just skip the whole thing.
It was a good first episode. I hope this contues. I don't get all the hate. But if I am guessing right, people didn't like how she-hulk is instantly able to perform stuff better than bruce.
I feel like my reactions to and enjoyment of this show is the adult equivalent of how 13 year-old me felt about The Vampire Diaries... and I don't mind.
