Gave this a shot because I've already watched all the good sci-fi series, and was hoping to find a gem. This seemed like a good choice...it ran for 7 seasons, after all.
It had a lot of potential, story-wise. I agree with many other reviewers that the characters were quite schizophrenic in their portrayal. It really was hard to consistently root for any of them for very long. I did find myself actively rooting against a few of them.
The science part of sci-fi. This is a big issue for some, and based on the reviews, this show is not for science people. I'm not hung up on that when it comes to a fictional tv show.
I do, however, take off at least one star for the massive overuse of the phrase "This is not who we are", and every variation of "You've got this". I watched the entire 7 seasons in a month, so I'm sure this was more glaring to me than it was to people watching one episode a week. It did, however, make me want to scream at the sky. It might make a good drinking game, if that's your thing.
All in all, it was on for too long. Things got repetitive. I stuck it out until the end, as I always like to do, but this one just left me glad that it was finally over.
You do get some closure to the series, but it was just kind of...meh.

So disappointed. Would much rather watch a show that investigated the locations, history and legends of monsters underground than a fake wild goose chase with a bunch of actors. I use the term "actors" generously here.
So many of the shows in this particular cluster of networks follow this lame formula, and it is so old and done to death.
Stop being lazy. This could have been a really cool show.
