      I had similar experience with Revolution.

      The lead in sounded interesting and I have always loved the post apocalyptic genre in general.

      There was weird science (how does a generator just kick on after 15 years because the thing suppressing electricity switched off?) that jarred me out of my suspension of disbelief, and then once they revealed the cause, I was completely turned off because of the complete lack of science. The scene in the last episode of Season 1 with things lighting up, was just so completely stupid it hurt.

      The actors were decent. The writing, outside of the science, was not horrible for the genre. But damnit, if you are going to write a post apocalyptic series with technological causes suppressing electricity, you should get the damn basic physics of electricity right.

          I know that my wife watched an episode or two. But that's all that I know.

              Overall, Wayward Pines is worth a watch for its first season. It is very mysterious if you don't get spoiled...but once the "reveal" is out, it is more or less over...

                Yep.. what the wife and I are doing, when we have time.
                did the same with Person's of Interest.

                4 seasons on Netflix, and the last season is on TV now..

                        that is because I mentioned Person's of interest right before mentioning there were 4 seasons.

                        Correct, there are only 2 seasons of The 100 on Netflix, I think Season 3 just wrapped on TV.

                          @garak0410 I've not watched the TV show, but I've read the books and they're really good.

                            Season 1 does the books justice while adding some things to it...Season 1 is worth a look. Blake is involved in Season 2 as a creative consultant, so it is still his baby of sorts but so far..."eh"...
