JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
fionascott-46107 Loved this series - Max Beesley and Julie Graham were excellent. You'll love this if you love post-apocalyptic films/shows!Max Beesley's unsettling character was portrayed so well, you never knew what he was going to do next and Julie Graham's character journey reminded me a bit of President Roslin in Battlestar Galactica.I thought the script and the actors were excellent, I really enjoyed the plot twists and the character development. Personally I would have loved for the series to go on and on and I was so disappointed at how abruptly it came to an end. I have my fingers crossed that the BBC will bring it back to life one day.
aodell3 We want a third season. This is a brilliant show. One of the best shows of the decade and it was canceled? And BBC left the cliff hanger with Tom in the plane? Really? Please start production for another season. This show was produced ahead of its time. The viewing public wasn't ready for the issue of catastrophe of modern man and reverting to the dark ages. Viewers are open to the idea of failure of modern society. This is evident by the popularity of Revolution, the H1N1, Bird Flu, economic crash, etc. Prior to the Market Crash in 2008, modern society was invincible. But the market place and nature tested our environment and showed us how fragile we are. What we depend on for our foundation of prosperity is so weak that one tweak of the "variables" can utterly stifle the world we know and enjoy. Some of have an ideal how to survive, and some do not. Social orders will develop that mimic democracy, monarchy, and Draconian. Survivor instills these elements and makes use think, what would we do?
stuguy909 Tips for surviving the end of civilization: 1) Be prepared, if not, get weapons IMMEDIATELY! 2) Setup security and/or defensive positions, keep up look outs 24/7 3) Have an escape plan, and a fall back plan in case you must flee 3) Stockpile water and provisions 4) If not already gotten, get survival gear (blankets, tents, torches, matches) 4) Scout / Scavenge / Travel at night 5) If in a small group, STAY TOGETHER 6) Increase numbers primarily to bolster defense and scavenge capability 7) Limit your movement in the day-time, unless farming or raising animals. Darkness is your friend, unless it is cold...then attack someone while they are sleeping by the fire.Survivors made me angry. These people were blessed to wake up and not have to worry about taxes, corrupt government, and the daily grind of society. As an American, I dream of zombie apocalypse and end of the world scenarios. These idiots constantly make horrible decisions, put themselves in danger, lose friends to unarmed goons, isolate themselves in broad daylight, whine about their own gun when bad guys constantly hold them under duress, and listen to stupid women who know nothing about survival and self defense. Don't forget, let every bad guy go only to have the same thugs show up again and again like some Saturday morning children's cartoon show.As for the personalities. The doctor is unbelievable. The black guy had rage and domestic violence on his rap-sheet, but he is a total kitten in the later story. Abby is a stupid fat lady. The blonde is a dumb useless woman good for only making babies, she plays her role well. Al is useless, the 11 year old boy is annoying, and the only reason why I watched this show is because I was waiting for the ex-con to actually make good on his murder tendencies, and I was disappointed! I stopped watching this crap when the black guy gets caught trying to bust out the ex-con and Al ran like a scared school girl running from a child predator. There is no season 3, so there is no point continuing to waste my time with this crap. I see now why the show was cancelled.Then the whole vaccine secret organization bit. That made absolutely no sense. Do the writers not know how vaccines are synthesized? Goons running around town mugging survivors as test subjects? Seriously? I would have raided a police station and shot those retards and stolen all of their stuff. Then I would have followed the helicopter and stolen that too. Unbelievable.
Tovia Myles This show has topped my list as one of my favorites. The story line is playing out very realistically. This is one of those shows that you can sit down and make a marathon. Its watchable back to back from episode one to the last. Its everything the TV show Jericho should have been. It has very strong character representation in terms of personality and growth. I'm just now finishing up season one. I can't wait to see what is next. I totally buy into all of the leading male characters and Abby's character. Tom and Greg are so sexy. Najid was a great supporting character. He really helped to add an element of child like purity and lightness to the vibe of the show.
