Nonsense Festival
This show is a bad combination of the worst you can find in supernatural, walking dead and any movie of Roland Emmerich about the end of the world. The plot is awful, The characters are very poorly made, and you can't take seriously almost anything in the history. Although the special effects are reasonable and the soundtrack is good, there is a lack of credibility and the absence of any sense of ridiculous. Hardly anyone, even a fan of apocalyptic series, will be able to endure the parade of nonsense that is presented to each chapter. The series is getting worse chapter after chapter I think it won't have a second season because the poor reception of the audience.
actually pretty fun
EDIT: based on the first 3 episodes
This seems to be more of a religious gun fetish wet dream than any kind of serious story. Mostly interesting to watch to see how some part of humanity might think - after all this is no Harry Potter and some folks actually believe this to be reality, which adds a fun twist. Those folks just need to learn how things in reality work - for example that you can not talk back on the announcing system of a supermarket in the parking lot.
And damn - the righteous in the series certainly turn into killers in no time and are able to predict the future.
EDIT: below old review based on first episode
Is it all unbelievable non-sense ... yeah, it is based on the bible so what do people expect? Scientific reasoning?
But it makes for an interesting setup to tell more survival stories with a lot of diversity. And the bible does have plenty of different angles to explore to make for interesting fantasy.
This is based on just the first episode and so no idea where they will take it, but the setup is solid. If you are okay with slow-ass zombies in the Walking Dead somehow beating the militaries of the world, then this is easy to swallow too.
Will keep watching! Hope the stories will match the whole setup.

Missed Potential
This has been a frustrating show to watch but I haven't given up yet. For every cringe inducing awkward character there has been an interesting idea or touching moment.
Some of the characters (Karen and Matt Copeland in particular) are a little hard to feel emotionally connected too as their reactions seem limited. The sisters (Brianna and Dana) give me whiplash as they alternate between caring and loathing seemingly with each sentence. Maybe I just don't understand how people living in that kind on stressful situation would react but I need a little more background on them to understand their relationship if you want to whip me around that fast.
Some of the single episode characters are also hard to accept. I'm sure it is hard to continually do the 'find someone who seems okay but is really horribly damaged'.
The characters are sometimes hard to watch but I keep coming back to see if the show can tie all of the pieces together and explain what is going on. Hopefully it can find the time and pacing to give me the details of a interesting premise but also smooth out some of the characters.
Currently a flawed show but with some potential. I'll probably give to the end of the first season to see if it is worth continuing to watch (assuming it continues).

Could have been better
Any show which explores the idea of time travel or something similar always intrigues me. I wasn't looking at the cgi so much, was interested in the story. What i didn't like is the stupid characters, people making stupid decisions, and these were many. Creates unnecessary plot which diverts from the main story. Just feels like lazy writing
Yes, it's bad, BUT it's hilariously bad
Many other posters have described just how bad it is so I won't bother recapping things. Just accept it -- it's really, really bad.
But... it's so bad that it's funny in a Mystery Science Theatre 3000 sort of way. You just have to sit back and try to imagine which direction the next silly plot fork will go. Will the family really be stupid enough to do what the plot is leading them towards, or will they show some rare sign of above-70-IQ intelligence? Oh, it looks like the "smart" daughter is going to say something... how many different physical laws will her pronouncement violate? Oh boy, a big nasty is coming towards "mom"... will she waste it, reason with it, or run away. It really doesn't matter what happens, the chances are good that it will make no sense and lead to laughter along the lines of, "Who gave these people money to make this?" and "Maybe I can get in on the gravy train?"
