I wont spoil it (yet)

[Jose]

Sweet! I'll have to check it out tonight before the Cowboy game!

Looks decent if they don't constantly drag it out forever like LOST. Seems a bit far fetched but could be entertaining.

I find the premise of the show idiotic at best

Check out the book "Dies the Fire". Similar premise and I bet it's better than this show. I bet you'd dig it. I'm gonna try out the show because of it anyway.

[John -- '02 HAWK]

I found the show pretty soulless, especially the first half. I didnt care if any of the characters lived.

The action in the bar was ok

I'll overlook the rampant vegetation for the sake of the apocalyptic feel

The no energy for 15 years premise is dumb. It got even dumber with the magic usb drives

No firearms because its against the warlord's law, or being a soldier was too much of a trope.

Why wasnt there any steam power, when fire,gunpowder,and stills still worked? That made the show was look like it wasnt trying to be anything but a generic knights of the post-apocalyptic wasteland show

It's like The Walking Dead but take out all the good parts and add some magical flash drives.

Kind of what I was getting at. The world looked nothing like the show prior to electricity. It just comes off as nonsense to me.

just watched it, and at the end well dont want to spoil it, but umm ok

[GhostTX]

Saw the first episode. I enjoyed it, but the magic USB, as earlier said makes almost too hokey.

[David]

Dumb show

[Wicked98Snake]

Well I'll watch it tonight and let you guys know, I thought it was a cool concept but hell I liked Terra Nova so I probably have bad taste in TV shows. LOL
