Resurrection

This is by far the Best TV Series i have seen in a long time. The Previews really kept me interested, such an interesting and thought provoking storyline and when I saw the first episode, it definitely did not disappoint. Captivating just like the preview. Great choice of characters and actors. The story line, although taken from existing stores, is still very unique on its own. The mysteries keep you wanting more. the suspense is unbearable. The way the story is told, you really cannot tell what is going to happen next, waiting a whole week is just too much!

really can't wait to see where this show is headed!

I didn't know what to make of this show when I watched the first couple of episodes. I loved the very first episode but each episode after has been on a slightly lower level. While there is still drama and mystery it feels like it is going in a different direction. I personally still really like the show but I have a feeling that you will either love it or hate it.

To be honest the reason why I initially watched this show was because of Kurtwood Smith. I've missed seeing him in things since That 70's Show finished up but it is good to see him making great television again. In fact the whole cast is extremely talented and a big plus.

If your interest was piqued when you first saw the promotional clip then my advice would be to give it a go. The first season is short enough for you to take the plunge.

All available evidence shows that life is an emergent property of matter/energy in certain combinations/structures. "We"/"I", conceptualizing ourselves, is entirely dependent upon the specific structures of our brains. Any of the many studies on severe brain trauma patients will demonstrate this.

This is another TV show that teaches people not to deal with the fear of death in a mature, thoughtful way. But rather with the first and easiest way provided to them. Which turns out to be extremely harmful to humanity, as it leads one to focus on the invention of another life rather than the one life that all available evidence shows is our only one. The belief in an afterlife leaves one devaluing this life implicitly. That extremely important value is at least partially transferred to the afterlife belief.

In Arcadia, Missouri, Henry (Kurtwood Smith) and Lucille Langston (Frances Fisher) are shocked when their boy Jacob returns to them 32 years ago after his death. Immigration agent Bellamy (Omar Epps) brings him back to town from China. Sheriff Fred Langston (Matt Craven) and his daughter Dr. Maggie Langston (Devin Kelley) try to solve the mystery. Jacob's childhood friend Pastor Tom is trying to come to terms. Then more and more people return.

This starts with an interesting premise. Instead of digging into how they are returning, the show spreads out into everything except that. There's a widespread conspiracy of silence that keeps the general public in the dark. The great concept and tension slowly drains away over the two seasons. The relationships are fine. The acting is good. I just kept waiting for the show to move forward in the central issue.

I was constantly on the edge of my seat and eager for the next episode... only flaw to me was the unanswered questions at the end.

Still highly recommend.
