Ok, made it to the 2nd episode & stopped watching when

Chick goes off to follow her Uncle (bad enough)
then
Leaves the guy alive with his bow who wants to catch them.

I had to turn it off. Dammit I hate when people do things in fiction that no one would really do.

Should I give it another chance or will I continue to be disappointed?

You're going to keep encountering the same frustrating things... If you can't get past that I wouldn't bother. Honestly I dk how much longer ill give it

I've seen all the episodes to date (which only goes to prove that there isn't enough worth watching these days).

For me, the premise sounded good but isn't getting delivered. The main girl is annoying and an over-actor. And the writers have intro'd a number of plot surprises that lead me to think they're gonna have to get more outrageous over time to keep things interesting.

I doubt it gets picked up for a second season.

if you can get past hating the main girl, you can enjoy it

she is awful...both as an actress and as a character

Looked to me like they were trying to capitalize on The Hunger Games. Girl with a bow and arrow in a post-apocalyptic world.

I have watched it but it is pretty horrible. I'm probably going to stop. I wanted Lost, I got NBC.

Uncle: don't do anything stupid, girl.

Girl does something stupid.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

This band of misfits on this show is fricking terrible. Last night they allowed the prisoner, with his hands tied, to escape while they were all looking at him.

Shane & Co from Walking Dead would already be running shite is this world full of retards.

You're better of reading the Novels of the Change series by S.M. Stirling.

I like it, I wouldve slapped the main girl silly 5 times over by now, but the post apocalypse bs it too much to pass up

I didn't mind that

It was the part where they're trying to rescue those slaves and the girl is pinned down by some dude twice her size, only for her to throw him off of her and shoot him.
