Thread: The River

I wasn't thrilled with it and didn't find it scary in the least. Wrap it up in the six episodes and move on to something else.

I agree. It simply was too much like Lost to me. You never know what happened and it made no sense. This show tries to tie in "scary paranormal activity " scenes , but I simply didn't get scared at all. I doubt it will last long at all. I 'll keep recording it for my wife , but I won't be watching.

I finally forced myself to watch the premier. Not bad, but certainly not even close to the hype around it in the press. Still too much of the 'realism' of jerky camera work to suit me. I'll keep recording it and put it in my 'watch if bored' list!

I am putting it on the DVR, but not watching yet. I will wait and see if they are going to be around next year first. I have decided on complex shows better to record than invest time in watching and seeing them cancelled. For comedies and such I will usually watch since if cancelled it makes no difference since no real conclusion to the show is needed.

The camera technique does get a little old, but I think it's one of the scariest shows I can recall. Still enjoying it.

Last nights episode was pretty good.And yea I agree with the shaking camera and the bleepity bleep bleep is way over done.That said I think the show has potential.

2/21 episode was VERY good. Also noticed cameras are getting more steady. They actually broke out some tripods!!

Yeah, it's over.
