This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I created a login to rate this show. This show looks good but thats not hard to do with a 4k camera in New Zealand. The special effects are acceptable for a TV show but dont expect anything groundbreaking. The acting is also good, with a clear emphasis on cuteness for the good guys. Where this show falls down is the plot development. The characters are travelling from A to B and encountering roadblocks along the way. Each roadblock is meant to up the stakes and build tension but every single time they randomly get saved by some random coincidence or chance luck. Then theres some straight up strange character decisions. For example, a nosey neighbour randomly gets kicked by a horse and dies. Instead of just telling the authorities she died from the horse kick the doctor hides the body in a freezer. When the body is found it looks like she was murdered. This lady died of natural causes and he's a doctor!!
Also theres a clinic out of town that seems to have a cure for the sickness everyone is dying of. I dont get why no one cares about this place?

The acting was a pleasure to watch. But, the characters were one-dimensional. Certain interactions where hammed up and corny. Overall, the world felt dumbed-down. Parts of the story were too cutesy for the context. It seemed like the show was sugar-coating important aspects of the world for no good reason. Expand

This show is horrible, irritating and annoying. Expand

I could barely tolerate the first tediously boring first episode that I watched at an accelerated speed. I only finished watching it so I could honestly review how dull this is and that it doesn't get better by the end of episode 1. Maybe it improves, but there's lots of better television out there.

A complete mess. Which is very sad, taking into account how brilliant the original comics was.

Which is very sad, taking into account how brilliant the original comics was. The first episode feels so long, because this is basically a single chapter from the story, one out of 40. Also, they race swapped Jepperd because? And it's so funny that originally Jepperd was a hockey player, but since they swapped him for a black actor, they had to make him a NFL player instead. Also, the whole point of Jepperd is that the only thing he does well is fight. He never was good at anything else. Here instead, he gives Gus pointers how to rotate his crops! How can you get it all so wrong?!
A total mess of a show. Don't watch this. Read the comics instead.
