Salvation

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.

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.

If they cut out the entire character Jillian it would improve at least 1-2 stars.

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.

I like the first 4 episodes, and am looking forward to watching the rest. Not an action packed sci fi show, but more a thinking person's sci fi. I hope it continues with the good characters, well written episodes, and interesting plot. The special effects are good, and not overdone. Some sci fi shows are just CGI mess-fests where they try to throw as much CGI stuff as possible. Not this show. Witty, clever, and thoughtful. Hope it lasts.
