Okay, watched the first two episodes while working on other stuff. It's okay-ish, I guess. Apparently Aeson think's Betty White is approximately 12,0000 years old. But yeah, they don't waste time in revealing that it's 10,000 BC. Now, the important questions: how did they get there, can they go back, who are the strangers? And of course the little secrets everyone keeps from each other but probably don't matter (like the fact that the woman was looking for her son, but she has to act weird about it because...)
So yeah, doubt it'll be great, doubt it'll get a second season. Doubt I'll watch episode 3 unless I'm really bored. Though I am curious to see what type of supplies and personnel the government would send down into the hole. Like... If you knew you could fit x number of people and y pounds of supplies, what would you send? Presumably you would prepare in case there is no return. You don't know who with the people, so you'd probably want a medic. You'd probably need someone skilled in engineering (assuming you'd send down a generator and stuff). Pilot. Food. Maybe an agriculturalist in case you need to set up farming stuff. A marksman of some sort (for hunting), though someone trained in archery also might not be a bad idea (how long would bullets last). I guess thinking about the possibilities of what would happen is more interesting than the show itself. Hah.
