    Too much bashing of sci-fi shows here by critics and users. Yes, it's not realistic in the way a drama would be. That doesn't mean bad acting or writing, it means we are taken to a place we are not familiar with. Thank goodness for shows like this as a contrast to the endless stream of dramas.

    This show has a great premise. The pilot episode is well-executed, giving enough to show exactly where it is and where it's going. Very good reasons to stay with this one.
    Natalie Martinez is a good casting. I look forward to seeing what they do with her characters. Overall the cast did a good job of conveying the story which comes with a dark edge.
    Great to see a show being brave and going for something new in this genre.    … Expand

    Handsome and engaging pilot episode, Pacing was great in exposition. The underwater "crossing" scene was spectacular.--both visually beautiful and mysterious. The coastal setting is also gorgeous. Looking forward to more episodes but also know this genre of television rarely survives on broadcast television, regardless of quality.

    This show has a great plot, great actors and I look forward to watching it every week. But as usual they just shove more and more reality shows down our throats and remove any good show from all the networks. I mean how many bachelor, dancing, singing surviving, etc. reality shows do we really need. They are increasing at an alarming rate.

    The pilot for The Crossing is reminiscent of "Lost" and "Wayward Pines," signaling great potential for the new series.

    It may be merely gesticulating at parallel ironies as opposed to exploring and exposing them. But that’s the nagging part about evaluating this all-too-ordinary feint and an extraordinary story. Because that the first episode hints at the drama’s aspirations to be and do many things at once. And this dilutes its sense of necessity.

    It is watchable, even diverting television; but it is definitely good Zahn.
