Naomi

Unlike most of the 'reviewers' who have already posted, I actually watched the first episode. This is obviously a setup episode, but so far the show has failed to give me anything that resembles a character. The protagonist has accoutrements, in the form of cardboard friends, parents and weird hangers-about, but not one character that one could actually recognise as a person. The plot and situation is potentially interesting, but without someone to root for it does not drag me in. I'll watch another episode or two to actually decide what I think. Mostly, I watched this show because I don't think that the folks with an axe to grind at either end of the political spectrum get to decide what I should or should not watch. So you racist types; you made me watch this...

This was a decent start. The pilot episode was not fantastic, but not as terrible as other reviews would make you think. There are definitely some clunky bits and the occasional weird dialogue reading. I liked the second half of the pilot more, it picked up and starts to really get intriguing. Naomi as a character I think is quite likeable, and I want to know more about her. I will watch a few more episodes to see how things unravel.

I wanted to like it, I came in with no knowledge of the characters. I was pretty disappointed halfway through and pretty sure I'd not watch another episode by the end. I found the story to be rushed, within minutes we meet the whole cast and a get a glimpse into their angsty relationships. The environment seems so artificial to the point that you know this town couldn't exist even in the comics. (go visit an actual military base town in middle america.) The dialogue is clumsy and the characters seem to only be there to tell Naomi how great she is or be apart of her four-way entanglement...

I gave it a fair shot but, it just didn't hook me like a good show. I think the show could have a chance if they improved the writing. No one seems to know anything about Naomi and those who might don't even give you a hint of what purpose she would serve. I also think you could draw a better audience if the special effects were alittle better,if Naomi didn't try to seem so against her truth as hard. And who's RL parents let you do whatever. Switch writers, improve special effects would be a good start.

Everyone loves Naomi, and being a 16 year old teenager, this is very rare, besides everyone loving her, she has a father that doesn't take off his military clothes even for coffee and speaks robotic phrases, she has friends that start to investigate things with her, for no reason, just because naomi wants to, after all, everyone loves naomi, boring, boring, the intention of the actress was good tho.
