2030 CE

2030 CE has got to be the greatest show out there for kids and teens and just about anyone!! It's got a great plot (I'm no good at plot explaining so I won't say anything about that) and talented actors, and it makes you want to keep watching more and more. I've never seen an episode I didn't absolutely love! I'm sure it will stay for all planned five seasons and just keep getting more an more popular! Overall, this show is AMAZING!!!!!!

Normally I like science fiction shows, but this one has got to be one of the worse shows ever. The storyline is too complicated and not exactly something that I would drag myself onto the couch and watch for 30 minutes each day. Most TV shows/movies that are set in the future i.e. I,Robot, are usually good and have a very simple storyline that can be grasped easily. This show is more likely something that should end up on the cutting room floor, or at least be pulled from reruns and replaced with another show. It is currently being aired as part of a Out Of This World with ABC thing down here in Australia along with Zack Files and Jeopardy (the one about UFOS, not the game show). IMO, they should pull out 2030CE and replace it with something like Silversun or Animorphs.

This series is basically about a semi-post-apocalyptic world in which no one lives beyond the age of thirty. There is a cliched ongoing conflict between normal people and superhumans which in this series are called 'tubers'. The writing is bad, un-original and reeks of amateurism. The f/x can be summed up in one word, SAD. And the acting is some of the most disgusting, pathetic, disgraceful acting I've ever seen. The actors are all teenagers, which is almost always a huge mistake to do in a movie or series that is serious in nature, and they were probably all probably from the same school near the filming location. I can't see anyone enjoying this series unless they are a little kid or some kind of idiot.

What is it about bad television that makes you clamour for more? I was bored one day and stumbled upon this show from Canada while surfing through the available shows on Showtime on Demand, a special digital cable offering in the States. They should have kept this dreadful crap on YTV for all of those poor Canadian kids to enjoy. The concept is Logan's Run meets Demolition Man, and the acting is enjoyably putrid. So why I am attracted to this show? Is it Tatiana Maslany trying to be Lacey Chabert? Is it Elyse Levesque channeling a pouty Kate Bosworth with a little Katherine Heigl mixed in?

There's some bad kid-oriented sci-fi out there. Check out Discovery Kids on NBC-TV some Saturday morning. I give them credit for at least attempting to be creative and interesting. But with talent like this, "Kids Incorporated: Maple Leaf Edition" would have been a better idea.

I guess some people just don't have the ability to understand complex plot lines. that's what makes it all the more interesting! it and yes, the actors aren't great.. but then look at most movies. there are so many actors out there who can't act, but people watch their shows anyways. its the plot line that matters. who wants to watch a show that spells itself out before you even get halfway through the first episode? this was one of my favorite shows and i miss it sorely.. there are too many shows that are all alike these days, and not enough original ones. i just wish people could see that some Canadian shows actually do have a good side! i guess there just aren't enough people out there who like the science fiction shows that are actually original and fresh...
