El camino de la noche

Season 1 was intense good with some annoying illogical moral pontification. Season 2 just got absurd with way too much drama and conflicts. Seems many has a death wish screaming for all to end. It's ridiculous to create so much nonsensical conflict when it's possibly the end if the world. Exhausting to rationalize why so many idiots and morons are running the plot. I literally fast forwarded most of Season 2 to shorten my angst for getting through each episode.

Great thriller that keeps you on the edge for three and a bit hours. Acting is good but what makes this series intersting is the diversity of its characters and the nuances of their attitudes in the face of crises and tragedy. Morals are given a swirl, whirl and a whirlpool to change colours according to necessities fpr when lives are at risk, crimes have no consequence.

It's not perfect by any stretch but the short 6 episode season combined with 30-40 min runtimes will more than effectively take up an afternoon without making you feel like you've wasted your time. The pace is good and fast which tells the story which is interesting enough to to keep you drawn in. The acting is good and well cast and there's just enough character development to get you interested enough in them to care about them. You will have to ignore some plot holes, small inconsistencies and scientific accuracy, but hey, it's a sci fi show after all, right?

*edit season 2 has lost much of the steam that season 1 built up on. It's still watchable but I can't pretend to not be disappointed - I'm really not sure where they're going with this and season 3 will have its work cut out..

I love Apocalyptic shows or movies; especially one without zombies and monsters. Give them a more grounded and realistic approach. The threat is real and the plan is also not bad. Actually with much more budget and good writing it would have been an awesome series. Netflix have been doing a good job with international shows with Money Heist, The Kingdom(Korean) and Dark(German). I hope this show get some recognition because I am looking forward to season 2 despite its flaws.

I swear these characters' mindsets radiate the same energy as Rise of the planet of the apes. They're like children you just can't like any of them I would kill myself if i was on that plane apocalypse is much better. Could've been 10/10.
