Review of The Event

The Event (2010–2011)
6/10
Great concept, poor writing
5 April 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Well, I wouldn't say the writing is completely poor. It's just... sloppy. The pilot episode was NOT easy to follow and it frustrated even me at first but I went with it and it worked.

Several others have pointed out the sloppiness (FBI office getting trashed, gun on a plane, a reveal squashed at the last second... repeatedly, etc, etc, etc.) however I must stress that the idea, the story is just too good for people to be trashing this series out of hand.

I for one intend to give the writers time to develop this so I hope it is not canceled. I'm all caught up now to Ep 15 and await the rest with the hope that the writers read some negative reviews and get a clue. Please.
