Siberia

It's sad to see that this great show is not getting the support that deserves, because (according to those posting on their official FB page).. 1) they were disappointed to find out it was a fake reality show (I guess they would have loved it if people died for real?) 2) the acting is bad (they do not understand they are actors, trying to be seen as regular people, with all the awkward action and speech?) 3) too many hard to believe situations, mistakes showing location, props.. (don't they understand is fantasy/drama?)

My point is NBC has created a show that was under some people's ability to grasp. A great drama/fantasy/horror show, that keeps you guessing and on the edge of your seat. A great trip for those that love to escape reality, and are getting something "real", with no need of monsters, vampires or aliens. Just plain suspense.

There is a petition going, found on their FB page, to keep this show going, the possibilities are endless and up to their creative team of writers.

If you love to be kept scared and guessing, this is the show to watch. Pass the word, and I hope more viewers give it a chance.

I started watching Siberia because I was familiar with one of the cast members (Esther). The concept got me interested immediately. The first few episodes are very reminiscent of "Survivor" mixed with "Lost". It amazes me how so many people think that this is a "real" reality show but is "fake" because it's not filmed in Siberia. This is not a "reality show", this is a show that has part of it's plot set up as a reality show.

The episodes just keep getting better and better, I find myself very attached to the characters and I love the character development as the show progresses. The acting, in my opinion is great, shout outs to Sabina, Esther, Miljan and Johnny. You have to remember that they are playing normal, everyday people and it's meant to look like a "reality" show. Also, note that the actors are not given scripts, to make their interactions look genuine, real and natural, they are just informed about their character's personalities and of course, the plot.

Speaking of the plot, this is the final selling point for me. This has got to be the most interesting plot I've seen in a while. Nothing is predictable and I find myself on the edge of my seat every week.

If you want a great TV show that is entirely driven by it's plot and characters (which in my opinion, all TV shows should be driven by), and if you're at least a little open minded, you'll LOVE Siberia.

Eleven episodes in and no one (including some supremely intelligent people writing posts about the show in the forum) has the SLIGHTEST IDEA what is going on.

I would say as a Cliffhanger/Keep 'em Watching type show, that Siberia is a 100% success.

With all the garbage that is on TV/Cable these days: Junkyard Wars, Pawn Battles, My Daughter is Pregnant and So am I, the dozens of cookie cutter competition shows, the ONE SHOW that requires one to think a bit is undeservedly falling of the ratings ladder.

Well, look at it this way: The original Star Trek was a bomb when it was presented. The Odd Couple (many times voted the greatest sitcom of all time) never made it into the top 20 (I think).

If Siberia is not renewed, I will be sad, and hopefully will be able to buy the DVD/Blu Ray sometime soon.

P.S. Hey, viewers of this page: write a review and kick up the "stars"

Let me begin by saying that this is by no means the best show ever. That being said, I must admit this show ended up impressing me much more than I had expected it to. This show started off somewhat dull, unoriginal, cheesy, and over the top with melodramatic acting. By episode 8, I've become completely entranced! The story is dynamic, well thought and planned out, creative, and emotional. Like I said before, it's not the best show ever, but it has become 10 times better then it started off! It's sad to say that this show is doing pretty badly as far as viewer ratings, so I'm not sure if it will get a season 2. But I hope it does! Or at least gets a satisfying season 1 ending.

I watched the show from day one and I have really enjoyed it. I have recently started to watch NBC after I got bored of CBS. Siberia sounded like a great show. It made you asking different questions and making you wanting to see the new episode right NOW! I really loved this show because it was different from most shows I have watched and I pray and beg NBC to bring it back. I really wish they don't cancel this show or I'm done with NBC because they have canceled to many of my favorite shows. The acting stinks and that's the only thing that separates me from thinking is it fake or real. The first episode was kinda sketchy but, later on the series has made me into a fan. I also just love the twists and plots very creative. Thank you for this show. Keep it on NBC.
