Zoo

I love this show! I am super ANGRY that you would end it the way you did and not finish a new season. Are you kidding me!? Seriously!? The absolute worst way to cancel a show.

Ok, acting is very bad, screenplay sometimes looks ridicolous, direction is basic and (cinematically) I can't find any good in this drama. Good charcaters are just good guys, bad characters are the cliché of the cinema's bad guys and everything that happens in this series does not go beyond the margins of cinematographic normality (and if it does, it does it the bad way). But someway, I don't know how, I liked Zoo. Yeah, to be honest I loved everything of zoo, and I loved even more the genuine and involuntary ridiculousness that a lot of dialogues and scenes are full of. So, for me is yes.

We are experiencing a New Golden Age of Television. But, relax, "Zoo" is not part of that renaissance… you will not be vexed by conflicted characters, charged with remembering convoluted back-stories, or tortured by the moral ambiguity of the main plot. Consider "Zoo" an absolution, a get out of high-minded television free card. In other words, bring a bowl of popcorn or a package of Twizzlers: this is "B" television at its best: nature gone wild on a global stage (without much gore, thus far), attractive actors, plot holes big enough to swallow a rampaging giraffe, and just enough suspense to bring you back. Having come to "Zoo" without any expectations, I'm giving this high marks for being just entertaining. I imagine it will tell its tale and disappear from our memories like those Saturday afternoon serials of long ago – in that regard, it will be very successful.

Some actors are great, some are just decent.

Right, there are some flaws within the story. The script at some parts is cheesy and unnatural. And there could have been more depth to the characters for sure. And the score is mediorcre at best. Last but not least, it's a shame, that the show didn't get the proper finale it would have deserved.

Even though the message is most important:

Unless humans don't recognise their cruelty towards animals and life in general, it's not even worth to think about giving this series less than 8 stars.

The premise itself simply deserves a 10.

I'm just sad, I found this one so late and that it was cancelled.

Do not come to this show with high sci-fi expectations. Come to watch the writers have fun with the concepts. This is not intelligent sci-fi, or deep drama, it's silly, somewhat macabre, fun, with very occasional character moments. It gets dumber as it goes on, but manages to stay entertaining, to me at least.
