Outcasts
Really struggling with this, poor direction & story with little promise in the acting department either.

Re: Outcasts
Same here. Even the special effects are not that good. OK, the model work/computer GFX are good, but the actual physical effects and sets lack imagination, and don't actually look convincing.

Re: Outcasts
I forgot all about this. Is it the "epic new SciFi" which sounds like a re-hash of Earth 2?

Yep, have to agree and I was really looking forward to it. I'll be watching the second episode this evening but if the acting's as poor as it was last night, I won't be watching any further episodes

Re: Outcasts
It is not bad much better than that poor underwater "epic" The Deep that was out last year.

Re: Outcasts
I thought it was adequate. Hopefully it will improve and the first episode was all about setting things up.

Re: Outcasts
I thought it disappointing. Seemed to have a 'B' movie feel to it.
I'll watch tonight's Ep but really have low expectations. Would love to be pleasantly surprised though.

It is decidedly better than "The Deep" with James Nesbitt, it is in 3 parts I think so will give it a chance to improve.
