ABC's Ressurection

Flash forward was a good show. Had a good premise. ABC just wasn't patient enough. What is very eerie about the show is actor Lee Young in one of the episodes commits suicide by jumping off a building in actuality took his own life in 2013.

Wow. I did not know that. I remember that episode when he committed suicide in hopes that it would create a butterfly effect.

He had been on Rizzoli & Isles. Unfortunately it was a self inflicted gunshot wound. Very sad.

I haven't watched the show and don't intend to, but am I the only person who finds the premise ridiculous? If my Grandparents just showed up at my door, I would flip my **** in terror. And probably wouldn't sleep for years. I feel like that is the normal response.

I know they're two different kinds of shows.
It made me think of dejavu because of same themes same channel.

And about mismanaging tv shows all five major channels cw,fox, abc,nbc, and cbs are all guilty of wasting tv shows or purposely setting them up to fail.
The whole if it's not a powerhouse in five episodes or the first season it never will be. Like the freakin raiders oh this coach didn't get us to the playoffs he's a failure fire him after one damn season, or not giving him two to three seasons.

Rome wasn't built in a day, married with children for several seasons didn't have great but still given a lot of time rose to the top, cars and other things go through changes it doesn't happen over night or a day they are made, etc.
But that's the culture wanting microwave results.

Wasnt Married With Children one of the first shows on Fox? They had little choice but to let those shows find an audience.

Although Seinfeld had terrible ratings its first TWO seasons. Somehow they kept renewing it. In fact season 2 took a 2 month hiatus that ended with Jerry and Elaine as a couple. When it got renewed Larry David and Jerry decided they would just pick up with them just being friends and not mention it again.

I think you are over thinking it. The "pilot" was very good, and very well done and it got monster ratings.

We don't yet know from one episode who or what these people are clones, aliens or someone/company doing some genetic experiment? One of the previews (appeared) to show one of the "returned" looking at her own body in a morgue and as for as we know its just this one little town that is having this happen.

I think its a great sci-fi drama!

Ya know. This show kind of reminds me of Invasion. In Invasion though, people became hybrids (part alien, part human) overnight. In resurrection, people are born again 30 years later.

Something else to wonder about is it only happening in this small town or as the show develops will it start everywhere else. But why start here?

This show is very intense. Have to wonder if the kid's nightmare isn't a foreshadow of some sort. Can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy.

It looks like the Doctor lady's mother is back as well. Unless that guy who she asked is her dad is talking to himself.

It seems that the brother who is (slow?) can see that these people aren't who they say they are.

I'm also going to say I'm thinking this is only happening in this town.

That brother will be seen eventually to not be crazy. That reincarnated version of his dad is definitely not his dad. He seems to be evil. I wonder if the sheriff's dead wife will return. I'm positive she will and when she does, that'll be interesting considering she cheated on him right before her death.

I think the father was a criminal before even died. I'm guessing what was buried in the woods was money that he and the guy in the church stole together. After having seen two episodes of both now though I have to say right now that hands down Believe is a far more entertaining show.

Resurrection apparently is going to end up being a dark show. Like you said Dooley2, maybe the dreams the kid is having are in fact a foreshadowing suggesting that the returned only have a limited amount of time before they return to being dead.

Their facial reaction to the opening of the coffin could go either way. If the body was there or if it wasn't.

I'm going to make a prediction that this show doesn't last very long.

Ratings were strong in week 2.

So the original bodies are still where they have been buried. It can't be clones because they wouldn't eat tons of food and how would they have the same memories? Ray, the son of the returned criminal father said he thinks it's aliens. I'm leaning more towards this. They hinted at it possibly being something about the river causing it.

What's the excess food consumption about? Is that what is keeping them alive? Are they all about to hatch eggs and grow alien babies?

Why do they all seem to be coming back now and at the same time?

They've dropped about 2 million each week. The pilot got a 13.9, second week 11.25, and last week was a 9.5.

If that trend continues this week, ABC will likely cancel soon.

Not surprised. It's kind of a slow paced, weird show.

Good episode tonight. People just don't have patience for this type of show. Hence why crime and medical dramas always succeed. I think this show is mysterious and interesting.
