The Lazarus Project

I'm going to make this very short.

Sadly today younger people don't want anything that takes concentration to watch. The reason for this is they want to watch their phones while watching the show. You'll get lost if you do that with a good, intelligent show. So these people stopped watching it because it was too difficult for them to spend time on social media etc. And keep up with what was going on in the show.

That's the way the works us right now so you just have to expect that if you fund a great show you can accept it isn't going to last long. You just have to remember that.

And this was an excellent show.

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.

Being an SF fan for over 50 years, I found this to be up there with the best of them.

Yes, it's not perfect and has some flaws in some of the acting and storytelling about how people are recruited etc. But, for a well thought out, keep you guessing sci fi, particularly Season 2, do not miss this one.

The story line was meticulously planned to last over the first 2 series and although some of the first series was a little drawn out, it is for that exact reason that all else revolves around, from, to and branching from the initial story that gets you truly involved.

Unlike many other series that no matter how good, get cancelled and leave you frustrated, you find that even if it stops at the end of Series 2, there was a type of closure letting you sit in in a euphoric understanding of the story, that even if no more are made, you are left content but longing for more.

(PLEASE let there be more!) IMHO, take no heed from those that rubbish this fine production, particularly those that choose to call themselves "expert reviewers" I have usually found them to be so full of it that I take no notice of them.

'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!

Wow, I binged this one. I was dubious at first, the first episode was interesting but I wasn't completely sure. After episode three though, I was really enjoying it, and from that point all I can say is that it really builds well. The tone and momentum really gets you hooked. I watched it all in one sitting and now I'm waiting desperately for the next season!

REALLY enjoyable and worth biting into.

9/10 for me.
