The Lazarus Project

First of, a mini rant about review bombing...It's pathetic and pointles. There is a definite pattern to it and I think most people know why. It's ruining the reputation of genuine, respectable review sites. Ok on to the series...absolutely loved it! I thought it was a creative take on the time loop genre and plenty of room to grow. The story is compelling, good character development and mostly great acting. There are minor moronic moments but easily forgotten as the story moves at pace. Look forward to S2 to see where the rabbit hole goes.

This is a really good and original show.

I binged through it and enjoyed every episode.

I really hope they make a second series.

I've no idea why people are giving this bad reviews.

It really is one of the best shows on Sky in a long time.

Give it a go.

You won't be disappointed.

The series is a bit "Tenet" and quite interesting. The Lazarus Project has some forgivable continuity flaws, but it's a good TV series that mixes old time travel ideas from The End of Eternity, Groundhog Day, and The Adjustment Bureau. Despite the lack of temporal logic: "mutants" can revive months side by side with normal agents (non-mutants who cannot revive months), although they can use a special drug to remember, which ends up causing a certain exponential unsustainability, because instead to go back in time, they would actually be creating multiverses. But time travel is just that, travel of the imagination.

Starts out as a fairly straightforward time-travel romp and slowly unpeels its characters to become an intense, brilliantly written and acted story of good people twisted and broken by the burden of a world saving power.

'The Lazarus Project', a group of secret government agents tasked with stopping extinction-level events in the world, recruit their newest member - an app developer named George (Paapa Essiedu). Using a type of serum, average humans, such as the leader, Wes (Caroline Quentin), and fellow agent, Archie (Anjli Mohindra), can recall "Time Loops" - a cosmic event that resets the universe back to July 1st. Upon reset, those who have taken the serum, and certain mutants, like George, can remember everything prior to the reset.

Without giving too much away on an episode-by-episode basis, this show is quite entertaining to watch! The special effects, acting, writing, and flow are all very well done. There are some open plot holes that I hope will be addressed in the following season(s), but overall, a fresh idea on time travel!

Worth a watch!
