Featured reviews
The first season was good with good actors and a good script. In the second season all good actors have gone and the show became mediocre and boring. No wonder there was no 3rd season. 7/10 for 1st season, 4/10 for 2nd and 5/10 overall.
Only 2 seasons & I was on the edge of my seat for the finale. Feels like a huge let down, the network didn't have faith or the writers were boxed into a corner. I do miss the possibilities of the show.
The first season of this show was absolutely great.
I must admit I didn't have a clue what was going on (1st season) and not knowing made me watch even more. The 1st season was great it had you guessing in parts and wondering if what people was been told was true.
Now the 2nd season was a major disappointment it felt rushed but also was dragging at the same time the story of season 2 was rubbish and just seems like power had gone to everyone head.
It's a shame that it's over after just two seasons
A year ago, I watched the first season and, since it was a well-rounded story that does not require a continuation, and since the second season has picked up predominantly bad criticism, I gave up on further watching. A few days ago, I changed my mind and watched the series all the way through. Do not make the mistake I made and believe bad reviews, because the second season is excellent, and in some aspects maybe better than the first one. I guess bad reviews are the result of a big difference between seasons, but the fact that the second season deviated from the patterns of the first does not make it worse, just different. While the first season is a mindfak mystery and is based on confusing plot and mystical atmosphere, the second season is a post-apocalyptic SF drama. While the first season puzzles you and makes you guess, the second gives answers but, because of the strong interpersonal relationships, life dramas and several unexpected surprises and plot twists, it isn't any less exciting than the first. I believe it could have been better, but it's great anyway and it's a real shame they gave up on it after just two seasons. Don't let the fact it's canceled dissuade you from watching it, because both seasons are rounded wholes, that leave room for a continuation, but don't require it. There are no unresolved cliffhangers.
P.S. I did not mention anything about the story itself, because even the briefest summary would be an unforgivable spoiler.
8/10
