I've seen all but the most recent episode. It's less gritty than it needs to be and I don't buy Uncle Badass as the military genius he's supposed to be.

If you're looking for an action/drama with a hint of sci fi that's on a major network, Person of Interest is far better. It's like Batman put on a suit and started carrying a gun.

I'm giving it a spin b/c it's an interesting concept. I figure it'll be like Heroes, fairly successful for a season, maybe 2, and off the air shortly thereafter.

Yes, does not have the grit of The Walking Dead but it is a more plausable general scenario. A good solar flare could jack everything up like that.

Overall though it's a good show, good fights.

Not The Walking Dead or Justified but something that if I watch it On Demand when the kids are about. it's cool. Enough to keep me interested and my boys can watch as well.
