But as pieces of writing the stories are predictable but worse than that the stories fail to hold together for any length of time. The show looks cheap and one assumes that Holland and the name cast took most of what was probably too little to produce the show properly anyway. Ray Wise comes off OK the rest just seem to be slumming. Some genre names pop up to get a paycheck. All of them look like state of the art CGI from say 1987. Poorly matched real elements with fake 2 dimensional backgrounds, terrible fake blood spurts and fake explosions. What physical effects are attempted are poor and the bulk of them are bad CGI. Holland at times seems unable to shoot a scene so that it will even cut together properly. Though it wouldn't be a good radio show as the dialog is dull and the ideas shop worn and don' t vary much from episode to episode. The show is endlessly tirelessly talky, you can turn off the picture and probably imagine a better show than what you'll see. This show feels like it was made in the late 1980's, rejected only to be unleashed on a world that has come to tolerate less quality.
