  1. The comedy is “Rescue Me”-like, but lighter, with less angst.
  2. The punchlines are predictable, with jokes about weight, graying hair and sexting.
  3. The pilot also contained a few eye-rolling scenes.... Still, Sevigny is quite good. Her character is complex, with a backstory, that we’re slowly finding out, for turning her into the kind of person she is. D’Arcy also holds his own.
  4. Resurrection is the tamer American version [of "The Returned"].
  5. What’s extremely effective is the relationship (and chemistry) between Sequoyah and McLaughlin. You will find yourself rooting for them and hoping nothing comes between them.
  6. This one has promise because it’s not formulaic. I have no idea where it’s headed, which is kind of nice for a change.
  7. A little over the top--well, actually, a lot over the top--the pilot is filled with one eye-rolling surprise after another.
  8. The humor results from its realism and the blossoming relationship between father and son. Here's hoping this one sticks around.
