Salvation

The first season was borderline great despite a few cliches here and there but the second season tries to do way too much all at once. The result is a frustrating, uninteresting follow up to a promising first season. The constant flip flops, twists, and desperate character development left me wishing the asteroid would hit and put it all to an end.

I don't agree at all with all the critics of other reviewers: it's a very decent show, not as "sciency" as you would expect; there are lots of politics involved but the characters make sense, are pretty intelligent and the actors are quite convincing in carrying the tension and double-play of the multiple agencies and various protagonists.

It's well paced, interesting at every episode and not at all a frenzy of stupid mathy-jargon thrown at you like scorpion, which is utter bullsh*t for sure.

As I said, it's well written and seems to be going somewhere fast, which is kind of hard to find in a show nowadays so be content and stop complaining when something good comes your way! :D

I lowered my season one rating from 8 to 6 because of what I've seen so far with season two,. Initially, I really enjoyed the concept and found it interesting. The acting, although not great, is passable for a B-level summer show. However, season two is way too much soap opera. I thought the show deserved to be renewed for a second season, but right now I am learning towards closing it out.

Season one was pretty much ok, but season two had too much going on. As if the upcoming Armageddon wasn't enough, they had to add so many elements to the series that at some points it felt like I was watching "Dynasty", with an asteroid threat. Stopped watching it at episode 3 of season 2, and read the plot of the remaining episodes online.

First thing, this show is never about the earth and the asteroid. It's about how the two powerful nation US & Russia deals an extinction level of event on each other. Although half of the show are almost predictable, it still has many plot twist. With not so many good Sci-fi series out there, I think this show deliver an interesting Sci-fi drama.

Personal thought, I don't know why so claimed 'smartass' people gave bad review on almost every sci-fi TV? There are many good sci-fi shows canceled because of bad review from those 'smartass' people. I mean why don't we just enjoy the show and give some appreciation.
