Should I not waste my time by watching this?


I've been recording it to my Sky planner, quite a few episodes built up now.

From the ads it looked great. Then came here and it's getting slated.

Should I just delete the eps to free up space?

Surely the sensible thing to do would be to watch the first episode and then make up your own mind as to whether you want to watch the rest of the episodes or delete them.

I have to say that some of the comments made about the show in the user reviews and on the message board are laughable. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion as to whether they do or don't like a TV show but I tend to ignore comments from people who can't even get basic facts about a show correct.

For what it's worth, I think it's brilliant. Then again, I've noticed that quite a few new shows get really mean spirited reviews w/o deserving it. The way I see it, people only care for production. That's why crap like TWD with no story, no character development, no nothing, can be a hit show, cause they have good make up and good sfx. On the other hand, shows with intelligent story get called "stupid" by people who don't get them - and I know how it sounds but here's an example: people complained about aliens looking too much like humans, even though that was essential for the story, it wouldn't work if they were little green men, and similar idiotic complaints.

Yes delete the eps and free up space.

If you start watching you probably won't finish watching after 16 mins.

It's not the worst show on TV; just the popup ad that you don't need when you're on the internet.
