Blackout: Tarde Demais

It could have been a great series, BUT why didn't the writers ask a technician, engineer or SOMEONE who a few years physics in school?!

Really bad science here!

I really liked the book, but the show made many things that are well explained in the book look very unlogical. If you can handle this, the show is still a good production with interesting characters. It is a good show for two or three boring evenings during a lockdown. Nothing special, but good entertainment.

The most surprising thing about Blackout is that Germany would turn in to a post apocalyptic nightmare in less than 4 days. They'd run out of food and water in two days, and apparently there's only one couple in Germany that has solar power?

These are Germans. Masters of efficiency. I don't see how any of the above would happen in less than a month. I could see it happening in America in under a week, but not Germany.

'The most surprising thing about Blackout is that Germany would turn in to a post apocalyptic nightmare in less than 4 days.'

Hell yes! That's what studies expect to happen actually after 72hrs.

The effects are researched quite well and embedded well into the story. But of course it doesn't make everything right.

Pretty good for a German production and binge-worthy.

It's a gripping take on what a large-scale power outage could do to modern society, and it makes you think: how prepared are we, really? And it is also a chilling reminder of how fragile our infrastructure is... surprisingly good.

I hate series. Few of them have a script that could keep you entertained for an hour, and then they make ten episodes out of it. And they never finish, because they want to produce a second season.

Blackout has a good script and grabs your attention because the actors are good and the plot is realistic. It's about the collapse of modern civilization, but not due to zombies or alien invasions. It's about a power blackout, and the chain reactions that leave modern European countries without heating, food, transport, law and order. Soon after the light goes out, we're without Internet, tap water and supplies. Many details are implausible, but the series makes you aware of the vulnerability of modern cities.
