4400

...and I kind of agree. Synopsis talks about 4400 overlooked and blah blah. So, one main character is a lawyer, another is doing a reality show, this and that. How are they somehow in a bad place? Oh, right, this is about USA and skin color: nobody is white, and almost everyone is black. That's the main story.

They mention people were taken "from all over the world", yet they only focus on a handful of black people from USA. They try so hard to make everything about skin color. It alienates people who aren't all into USian politics. It detracts from the story.

And the story... I'm in episode 10 now. There's not much of a story. It's all overshadowed by other things. This isn't scifi, this is just narrative of one country's societal issues based on skin color. If in 10 episodes you haven't gotten anywhere in the actual plot, the one that's supposed to be the story, I don't think it's going anywhere.

If this gets a second season I hope they actually take off their skin color glasses and actually think which show they're doing: scifi story, or societal commentary. You clearly aren't capable of doing both.

All these years waiting for a follow up of the original 4400, that was great, and we get this horrible remake with stupid fake dialogues and bad acting. Such a shame because it shows that they invest good money in the production but that's it, the screenplay is really bad.

Not sure what was the motive behind this series and the story they are trying to tell . The original series well done with a great story right from the beginning. Not sure if I will make it through episode 2.

Just like a few of the other CW shows, 4400 uses the name, but very little else from the source material. It's sad to see how little they bothered to invest. The show is about 4400 missing people mysteriously reappearing, but you never see more than 20 extras, all living in an abandoned hotel. Rounding out the cast are unnecessarily raged filled racist guards and clueless government officials.

I absolutely loved the original it took you into a whole other world, this one takes you no where literally, the shows plot does not move, two episodes in and its the same script, characters are not interesting, there it good diversity but that is about it. The show could be so much more.
