really good


First time watching a Russian serie for me, and am not disappointed at all.
I watched about 5 or 6 episodes and the show is very good, great storyline, excellent actibg, and deep characters.

This is just so much better than the shallow characters and ridiculous situations you can find in ''walkind dead'' for example.

Global distribution is the future of media.

I agree with you on all points. And it kinda makes you feel better about the real world, doesn't it? The pandemic in this show (which was filmed before covid) is more like the Black Death in its lethality. As bad as things are for us in 2020 ... it could've been so much worse!

I agree. I watched this series a few weeks ago and they left it open for a second season which I'm looking forward to. The lead actor "Kirill" is also in another good series called "Better Than Us" which ran for two seasons between 2018-2019.

I Watched "better than us", it's ok but definitely not on the same level.

Ok TWD is shit.

But I am flabbergasted that you can what this show and not think these characters and not shallow and the situations they are in are not ridiculous.

The roving band of armed militia who break into uber rich houses to.... STEAL BIG SCREEN TVs... COME ON!!!

The one guy can go into the sealed off city EASILY, to get his wife and kid and get out easily and just in time to save the merry band from the Roving band of armed militia who want revenge and MOAR TVS!

I agree the first episode is border line maybe, but the rest is just great.
Also the directing, light, is really good, doesn't feel like a cheap show.

It was good.

They did not focus on stupid gross-out situations or violence, although I thought ??? what's his name, the hubby guy, was a bit too dishonest. It would be foolish for one man to go off alone with two women in a car and having no real destination.

To me, America has real problems, everything is rotting, and especially the junk we put into our heads. This was a good show that models people working together and forgiving each other, and being trustworthy, and kind of cute how the cute girl goes for the autistic kid.

It's good. You know what else is good is the stuff coming out of Iceland, and I think Norway. "Fortitude" and "Trapped", both mystery series, and both with at least two seasons.
