Negative Positive
Title: Pastiche of other people's ideas, too much violence, hokey take on heroine
Review: Review of the PILOT:I'll try another episode or two if they were free (I watch all TV and movies via streaming video, not cable), but I wouldn't waste money on subscribing to the series, judging by the pilot. They've "borrowed" so many ideas from at least four other series (Jericho, in particular) or movies that even I recognize right-off, and I'm not a FANatic who remembers all details. They should be paying royalties to them, but ideas can't be copyrighted, and they're just taking bits from each show. The premise is intriguing, so too bad if they're going to waste it. Some shows take a while to develop or get interesting, so I might try one more episode but spending more money on it isn't high on my Must Have list.
