pugnator71 After the X-Files TV show left the airwaves in the early 2000s, there was definitely a void left in us who craved stories of the supernatural and government conspiracy. Resurrected has, in a way, filled the void left by Agents Mulder and Scully. As a matter of fact, Resurrected seems to be one long drawn-out episode of my beloved X-Files. If casting is the key to making a great TV series, then Resurrected definitely hit the ball out of the park. The actors' interpretation of the characters makes me care enough to watch each week to find out what happens to them. Omar Epps and Jim Parrack are definitely standouts for me.If you liked the mysterious and eerie vibe of the X-files TV series, I believe you will like this Resurrected series as well. An emotional and thrilling journey through the town of Arcadia, Resurrected is quite different than all the other shows on the small screen today.

duraflex We have watched every episode so far and sorry to say but in its second season, it's sinking fast.Like another ABC series "LOST" a few years back, RESURRECTION started out with an interesting premise but it has been quickly going down a very dark hole and we longer want to watch.The show is well produced and well acted but not so the story lines. The stories have turned just plain weird - almost satanic. Instead of offering a vision of what an afterlife or the return of a loved one might be, it dwells on all the most morbid of possibilities. It obsesses on evil and darkness and to what end? I really do not understand what the agenda of this program is but I know that we are no longer interested given the wrong turn the series has taken.During the run of second season of episodes, viewership was down by half. It seems unlikely that the network will bring it back. Let's hope not.

Rick Previdi (rprevidi-1) As everyone knows, this is a remake of the french TV series "Les Revenants". The original show starts a little slow and doesn't have near the budget that the US remake does but the two shows are simply night and day in terms of quality television. I won't go into details since I want this review to be spoiler free but if you haven't watched the original french show, do yourself a huge favor and watch it (it's on Netflix). The US version just has poor acting and poor writing to say the least. It appeals to the lowest common denominator which seems like the major network's M.O. in today's world. It makes sure to check off all of it's typical casting requirement boxes even though those casting choices are simply put... horrible. The entire story and the character development lose so much in the translation that the show is a vague shadowy reflection of the original. Like most network TV nowadays this show has no soul, no intellect and lacks any real emotional connection.

shenda4 This is a very intriguing show; the plot is advanced just enough each episode to keep you interested while maintaining the mystery. That is not an easy balance to maintain. Frances Fisher and Kurtwood Smith are superb as the two parents who lost their son and have now regained him again. There are a couple of false notes; I would expect people to have a much stronger reaction to the return of not one but 3 dead people. Frankly, the whole town should be going berserk. How does this happen without throngs of media and onlookers descending on the town? Also, if Agent Bellamy is ICE, why is he allowed to stay around the town for an apparent indefinite period of town? These are minor distractions from an otherwise excellent show.
