The pilot was pretty good. Then it went all stupid. Violent bad guy on the loose, let's not lock a door and play loud music so you can't hear anything. Isolated scientific research base doing infectious disease work, the workers, after rampant viral outbreak, so dumb, they all want to go home. Lead doctor, the only one that can cure the virus, keeps asking to go on dangerous missions. Oh yeah, we are all probably gonna die, let's have a petty interpersonal drama session, again, and again and again. The cure, that can wait. For some reason, there is no contact with the outside world. Why can't they find anyone. This place must have the greatest hiding places known to man..... Reminds me of watching an old Scooby-Doo cartoon, but as an adult, I can only suspend so much disbelief.

This is the oddest plot. First it starts off like another rip off zombie show... I like those shows so I watched. Then all the virus effected zombies get vaccinated, then it turns into some vampire cult thing when people can life thousands of years but these people don't need to drink blood like vampires. Then they fight and the lab explodes... The End

My fiance and I love this show!! He is a "bit' more critical than I am , partiicully when it comes to the show explaining the various sci-fi aspects that we are supposed to believe in this show's world. Sci-fi, supernatural or whichever, they can still explain, for imstance, how zombies became that way. There are very few inconsistencies or disbelievable things in this show. It is well written and slowly unwraps it's mysteries. I hope that they keep it coming!
