Revival

As a resident of Wausau, and a fan of the comic its based off of, I was surprised at how this is turing out. Its not spot on to the comic, but its doing it justice. Its definitely a great take on the whole zombie genre. When the show was first annouced, the whole city was talking about it. It was featured in the news online and all over Facebook. Now, its not filmed in Wausau, minus some shots that are in-between actual scenes, but its still pretty awesome to see your home town mentioned over and over again. Still cant believe a comic I read years ago, became an actual show, and not a low budget one at that. Definitely wirth the watch.

As a fan of the mystical sci-fi genre, I can say - the pilot turned out solid. The atmosphere is surprisingly cohesive, the direction confident, and the cast is average overall.

Melanie Scrofano - familiar from Wynonna Earp - fits organically into the dark tone of the story. There's something reminiscent of Preacher: that same strange, apocalyptic energy bordering on the absurd.

It's a shame the episodes are released weekly rather than all at once, which is frustrating in the streaming era. Still, the wait might actually build anticipation.

In the end, it's a solid genre piece that knows how to keep you intrigued. Recommended for those who appreciate a dark atmosphere, philosophical undertones, and quality execution.

This show is great! The writing, acting and directing is spot on. I am a huge fan of the Walking Dead, any zombie movie or show so I have seen a lot of zombies. The premise is interesting and I feel like it really hasn't been done. The main actress does a great job at maintaining and keeping the show interesting. Many of the actors I would not know however they all do such a great job in the show!! I found out about this show from one of the actors, Lenore Zann who is great. She mentioned she was filming it last year. If you like zombies, or just a very interesting show watch this. I really hope it gets renewed for further seasons!!!

While there were a few moments during the show that led me to glance at my phone due to some slower scenes, this is a common experience for most viewers. Overall, my excitement to see local landscapes, as the series was filmed in my hometown, kept my interest alive. The acting was superb, and the production quality stood out, showcasing a strong commitment to excellence. The first episode concluded with a cliffhanger that, while somewhat predictable, has left me eager to discover how the plot will unfold. I am truly looking forward to watching the remainder of the season, as the initial impressions have been very positive. Despite a few dull patches, I believe the overall experience is definitely worth the watch, and I can't wait to see where the story takes us in the episodes to come.

Found this boring perhaps because this plot has been done before,with a slight storyline that varies wrapped in mysteries.

The cast and acting was average,you didn't care or like anyone & the cinematography was drab.

Was clichéd & plotholes.. I realize you shouldn't judge a series by one episode,but it should hook you enough to come back.. Was the reveal finding out a sibling was dead,really cliffhanger worthy? No! Even showing what's to come on the season,didn't have me sitting on the edge of my seat.

I mean yawn! A single mom that seems stuck in a small town,with a chip on her shoulder & parent or sibling issues.

Unless the storylines each episode become intriguing,don't feel this will make my weekly watch list.

If you like this type of television genre to watch check it out,otherwise find something else to invest in.. Examples: Glitch or Travelers.

On a final note: People mention 4400 & how this one doesn't compare,that show didn't deal with dead but those who disappeared returning.. So,not exactly accurate.
