I love Eric Kripke but I gave up on it last year, sweetie so I'm not the best to be a help here. :)

ahahaha no - scifi show that makes no sense and has crappy writing despite the fact that it has Kripke and Edlund

Not a clue what is going on, but i'm still watching, though i'm not 100% sure why?!?

I loved the first season, but ...if the second season starts going all weird and sci-fi with the radioactive bugs and stuff then I'm out ... I'm crossing my fingers...

I made it through about 2/3rds of season one, but then Things Happened and I just rolled my eyes and shut off the TV.

Oh, man. I gave up at, i guess...the end of the first season? When there was just a veritable *cascade* of incredibly stupid actions and decisions and character goings-on that made me just shake my head.

I mean, seriously, i'm suspending my disbelief here, and our main person is a YOUNG WOMAN, and it's awesome and all, but.....

I just can't take that much stupid.
*sigh*

I wanted to like it so much. I mean, post-apocalypse dystopia is my meat, so this would be *made* for me. Plus, Kripke's cast iron siblings and family themes, girl protagonist--what's not to like? I watched faithfully 2/3 through first season and then...just couldn't be arsed to watch eps off the dvr. I ended up being honest and deleting them unwatched. I just couldn't get invested in the primary characters, there were some that I loathed (that I suspect I wasn't supposed to), and most of them left me indifferent. If I didn't *care*, why was I watching them emote through such either awful or indifferent scripts? So I didn't. I'm not sure even Edlund would help, so I chose not to subject myself to another try. (shrug)

...more room on the dvrrrrrrr!

I lost interest somewhere at the end of last season?

Dystopian America 15 years after all the electricity in the world has been stopped - no one knows how or why. Everything stopped in a single night, leaving people stranded wherever they were when the lights went out. When the series starts, the country is divided up into various area controlled by warlords with their own militia. There's some kind of keyfob thingy that may or may not hold the key to restoring electricity, and supposedly somebody somewhere knows what to do with it, I think.

Wow, I guess I'm with everyone else here. I started out with high expectations, but then it just got kind of depressing for me. Plus, I had to DVR nearly everything last year, so I had almost full seasons of SPN, Once Upon A Time, Scandal, Nashville and Revolution. I started watching the recordings in that order, then ran out of steam and deleted Nashville and Revolution without watching.
