Reviews

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
masonroberts88 This show is terrible. Luke Perry is a terrible actor, Malcolm Jamal Warner is a little better but hes hard to believe as a survivor type. It's no wonder this show only lasted two years. The underscore sounds like it was made by looping a bunch of Celine Dion extra material from the movie Titanic. Way too much dramatic musical score, always trying to evoke emotional reaction from a show that lacks substance. Now they play Jeremiah on my favorite channel Comet instead of all the great seventies sci fi and horror that they usually play. I guess the royalties are so cheap that they thought they'd give it a shot? I hope Comet stops replaying this garbage show. Its not even comically bad, its give you a head ache bad.
Mo ([email protected]) I got this issue, you see. After deciding to marathon all 10 seasons of 90210 (the original), I just couldn't get enough of the coolness of Dylan McKay. I wanted to be him, to admire him, and watch more of him. Well, after 10 seasons, Dylan was gone, and Luke Perry expressed many times that he wished nothing more than to move on and show he was more than a one trick pony. And that's much to my chagrin because I wanted to see more Dylan. Even in a different role I wanted to see someone like the Dylan character and it was a problem because Perry was busy trying to build his versatility in roles that had him be the bad guy (Angel and the Bad Man, Upstairs), a southerner (8 seconds), a hungry agent (John From Cincinnati), anything, just not Dylan. Finally, though, he brought a Dylan like character back for Jeremiah, this show, and it was better than 90210! This show was amazing, the feeling, the story, the coolness, the striving of each character, the arcs, the incredible dynamic between Luke/Jeremiah and Malcolm/Kurdy, everything. I marathoned this one, too, and the first season was absolutely non-stop riveting. This was Luke's finest since Dylan and it really should have continued forever. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to watch amazingness and perfection. Season 1, that is...Season 2 had 2 issues, First of all it was still very good and enjoyable and entertaining. But it started to become a farce of itself as many plot turns which should have taken months to evolve, took weeks. This was because the producers were told like at the last minute that their (e.g.) 26 episode order had been cut down to like 13, I just made up these numbers because I'm a movie viewer not a researcher but the point is I know that there was a cut down of episode orders so everything had to be rushed, so I can't blame the writers for speeding up the plot. But the second problem, without giving too much away, the whole concept of season 2 bothered me: If they lived in a world after the apocalypse, struggling to find even the most remote traces of life, as they did in season 1, how could there have been a big huge city right around the corner that nobody knew about until season 2!?! I mean geez. So that plot hole took away a lot of enjoyment, because you could just see that it was this glaring addition that no writer thought about at all during season 1 and then said, hey, let's design this new thing in season 2. Took a lot of believability away. Other than that, this show is a must watch. After the series was cancelled fans had campaigns to have them try and revamp the show and I would have fully supported it, but it sadly didn't make enough noise. I hope you watch it and enjoy just as I have!
TonyCamonte84 The concept sounded interesting and appealing to me, so I decided to watch "Jeremiah". Sadly, everything that could have been good about the show, was ruined by terrible writing. I could have forgiven the show for all those clichés it included, the over-the-top characters and the stupid story lines, but it was the dialogue that really killed it for me. There is absolutely no subtlety here. Characters say things they would never say, just to get something across to the audience that the writers had no idea how to communicate otherwise. Just watch the first two episodes and you will see for yourselves. The acting isn't good, and the pacing is not well-done, either, but the writing is really frustratingly bad. There are multiple scenes in every single episode, which left me feeling embarrassed to watch it. I heard the second season is even worse, but I honestly couldn't make it that far. This show is cringe-worthy, mainly so because of horrible writing.
kazaadude2000 The general theme gives the potential for a whole world of plot possibilities. The characters are very engaging, specially the buddy thing going with Jeremiah and Kurdy (Perry and Warner). Marcus, Mr. Smith, Lee, Erin ... all the characters were interesting. Even the extras, or the bad(?) guys. It's not just about surviving ... it's about moving on, hope, and building a future. Most of the time, it didn't come out too preachy, but JMS shows somehow tend to be that way.Each season has an underlying plot that connects the episodes together, but each episode has it's own story. It has a powerhouse season ender for the 1st season, and a powerhouse opener for the 2nd season. I liked all the episodes, although the last episode of season 2 (of the series, in general) felt rushed, as the writers knew they had to end the season abruptly.Acting was pretty good, but sometimes (not often), the dialog seems a bit corny, which makes it tough to act out with credibility, hehehe.I was real disappointed that this wasn't renewed, while more shows with much less story to tell last pretty long. This is an excellent show that not enough people watched. If it somehow gets a 3rd season, I'd continue watching it. :)
