Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... sorry

WTF were they thinking and WTF did I just watch.

Oh my god! This doesn't just have a lot of plot holes, the whole thing is a plot hole. I know we sometimes have to suspend belief with shows and movies but if you take a second to think about any little aspect of this it's just 800 steps too far.

Set in a future where most of the humans are dead and the ones that survived are blind, yes all completely blind and then dumb stuff happens.

I might watch one more episode to see if they can use all the money they clearly spent on this steaming turd to turn it into something worth watching but I think it's relatively safe to say that I won't make it to episode 3.

I'm still dumbfounded. The prayer scene was particularly stupid, I literally laughed out loud.

Let's hope this isn't a sign of things to come for Apple.

I've only watched the trailer, but I did wonder why they started applying mud to their faces like some kind of war paint when no one can see it.

This review from Variety pretty much sums it up, just in a more controlled way than my spray :)

It really is hard to understand how anyone at any point went "wow, we really have a winner here".

There are so many moments like this, just so damn stupid.

After my post about His Dark Materials being the best thing on TV at the moment I thought I'd come back to say that this is by far the worst, but maybe it's so bad its worth a look just to laugh at how f@#king stupid it is.

So much expositional dialogue, so many WTF moments, and the best/worst part is that the creators were obviously taking it all seriously, someone actually thought this was going to be amazing. I just don’t understand how this got made.

I can’t wait for the next episode, this is comedy gold.

It really is, I mean I'm still watching. Even the critic's reviews are a fun read.
