Season 1 Review: There isn’t a single memorable performance anywhere in Salvation, although, to be fair to the cast, with a script this perfunctory, escaping with one’s dignity intact is job no. 1 anyway. There is no direction to speak of, just shots of people saying lines, all cut together as chaotically as possible. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Salvation has an interesting story somewhere deep down--and a cast that’s mostly capable--but it doesn’t care to tell it. Read full review

Season 1 Review: In short, Salvation strongly resembles recent congressional budget debates, punctuated by occasional kidnappings, car chases and gunplay by an unidentified gang of thugs that apparently wants the world to end. Finally, the Nihilism Lobby gets its own show. Read full review
