The Event (2010–2011)
1/10
Big disappointment
28 February 2013
You know, the initial concept was good, but the script writing was horrible, predictable, and poor. The main plot device was

I want to trust you but at the last minute someone else did something that makes it so I can't. Or.... how do I get you to do what I want in spite of the fact that you think I am lying to you...

The plot drifts. Parts of it never really make sense. The Event that the title comes from never materializes and it looks like it was supposed to be the main focus of a second season that didn't happen. The political aspects are completely unrealistic unless you are 12 years old and dealing with siblings. The "science" is silly and unrealistic or made magical. The acting is stiff. Towards the end the music becomes overpowering in an effort to make the viewer feel that the plot is advancing when all too often the episode is just filling space. Not worth it... don't bother.
