i think i was reminded of terra nova from one of the scenes following the blackout. there was luscious pastures and other nature scenery that reminded of me of event.
as for the show...
place seems to be in very dire disrepair in 15 years. i'd like to think if the same thing happened on earth after 15 years our cities and society wouldn't look like that.
no idea why ben admitted to being ben.
also i'm sure miles has been hiding for 15 years, so to open up like that was pretty dumb. his supposed niece could've easily been part of the militia who just made up that story to get him to say he knew where miles was or he was in fact miles.
who was black chic talking to on the computer? reminded me very much of lost.
aren't monroe/miles friends? why is monroe hunting him? i guess that's the backstory we will find out.
i'm definitely going to watch a few more episodes but feel i'll stop because there's way too many unanswered questions, like lost, and i don't want to fall for that trap again.
I'm assuming Ben admitted to being himself to avoid what ended up happening. From my experience with end of the world scenario type militias in television, they usually bring the ruckus when they don't get what they want.
When all the militia guys showed up at the hotel Miles was bartending at, he said he would "never go back there" which I assumed meant he was at least part of the militia, if not a founding member with Monroe.
Monroe was in the car with Miles when Ben called Miles to tell him the lights were going off and never coming back on, then they had a long walk back to base so I would assume they talked about it some, and Monroe figured out that Miles/Ben had important information about it.
I liked the show, but I usually like anything with an end of world scenario.
