Damnation

I am sad this was cancelled... Killian Scott and Logan Marshall Green are excellent and the storyline is quite interesting. But really, I'm impressed with Killian and his ability to play Seth Davenport since the only thing I've seen him in is the very Irish, but very good, show Love/Hate.

Wish Netflix would order another season. I'm hooked just to find out it was cancelled.

I binge watched Damnation during lockdown and thoroughly enjoyed it. I can't believe it passed me by when first released, but then lockdown has given most of us a bit more time on our hands. The first couple of episodes were a little slow, which is why I gave it 9 stars. However, the storyline and action ramped up after this making Damnation an action packed series. The acting was top notch, especially the brothers, Seth and Creeley. I really hope Netflix commissions another series.

I measure how well done a show is by whether or not I think about it in the days between episodes. This is one of those rare shows that caused me to think about it with anticipation. Damnation will definitely be on my short list of new favorites. The character development drives the story. I took off a star because the pacing wasn't perfect, but for the most part it was spot on.

I do not usually review shows, but I decided to review this one because I was surprised that the overall user rating was so low for the quality of the series. As I suspected, when I read other user reviews I saw that they lowballed it because they do not agree with the political slant, as a result it jaundiced the overall rating. The acting was well done, the cinematography is first rate, I adored the costuming and sets. Basically, I do not understand how anyone could give this show a 1 star because they do not agree with the politics. Do yourself a favor and watch for yourself and decide, unless of course you are too much of a snowflake to watch programming that disagrees with your political views.

I've really enjoyed the first two episodes. The cast is attractive, can act and the script is well done. The premise of the rich vs the poor is fitting in the current time of our country. There is enough action to keep it exciting, plenty of questions that need answering and enough drama to keep you watching.
