hdmnh77 Great story line and cast. Would be awesome to see them reboot this with same cast a few years later to see where the storyline can go.... hey Netflix.... why don't you pick this show up!!

Zach Rishling This show starts off really well. Well, sort of. Enough for me to continue watching with some interest. I am now on the 5th episode, more because the story is interesting enough so far... but it's the little things that get to me. Minor spoiler part...The little things like: -how they show peyote in a bowl, then suddenly they are back-to-back having the trip? Why leave out the part where they drink it? It's just ridiculous to leave out the actual drinking of the drug, but to still imply it's usage. -the guy in the wheelchair... The set-up for sadness is so cringe- worthy. -the girl's reaction to being seen naked (albeit briefly) all throughout the episode tell me that this show is geared for kids. -the mom who lost her kid and her reaction to seeing her possible kid is a stretch at best (though this one is more of a major plot issue, I guess) -the odd clues and visions that god gives the group... So many things wrong with this. It's set-up in such an obvious "let's try and try and fail and succeed and try and fail, until... finale?" type way. If god wanted to test humanity (as an all knowing, all seeing, omnipotent being), then these types of tests are rather retarded. These clues and visions and treasure-hunting could have been made far better with just a bit more time and thought. the cops getting the kid (who actually is a terrible actor) made no sense either. End of spoiler partSo overall, this show appeared to be something interesting at first. It gave us a story that was a bit cliché, but not enough for it to be turned off. As you get further into the show, it get's bad. Worse. Awful. I do not drop shows easily. I'm mostly sad about not knowing the story, but it's just *so* bad. Maybe I'll finish it someday. But I don't know if I can sit through two seasons.

Kachi Mbonu I've been reading all the critic reviews and all. First of all I'm a fantasy genre lover. Looking at this series all I see is the message, whatever the plot entails, religious or whatever... From the beginning Lucifer falling down to earth and then 7 messengers connected, and then their destiny is connect; has been kind of like the story floating on my mind for a long time now since knowing about the book of apocalypse. sometimes movies/series carry a lot of messages that might be helpful to us one way or another; this whole story springing out from the holy bible merging the prophecy with modern event and sizing it out to what (maybe) how the end of the world may seem.It actually entails how humans can survive any threatening situation and the pending hope that always see us through. From the plot it somehow seem going against the Christian teachings (which is a big 'bad code') but it significance or message is entertaining. In the bit of it religious personnel (like me) will tend to pin out points... Why don't just let the series roll, a work that took much energy and insight to produce, its quite sad. No matter how bad it is there are many others that would love it.

WordWeaver777 If I was ignorant of the Scriptures, perhaps I would have enjoyed this show more. However, I am not. I have in fact studied the Bible for over forty-five years. As a result, it was through the lens of my knowledge of the Scriptures that I watched this show to the end.Like so many other TV shows and films which center around the Bible, and which cater primarily to a Christian audience, this show takes a few key elements from the Book of Revelation, and then creates a storyline which is not only not Scriptural in the least, but which in fact is quite ridiculous.While I have not delved into the history of this show, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that it was strongly influenced by the Roman Catholic Church. There were enough hints to suggest this, in my view.While the Hebrew word "malak" and the Greek word "aggelos" can indeed be translated as both "angel" and "messenger", nowhere do the Scriptures indicate that human beings can suddenly be transformed into Angels. Angels are spiritual beings who are created by God in the Spiritual Realm.Neither does the Book of Revelation teach that God sends seven messengers/angels to try to stop the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. This plot device is a complete fabrication of the writers of the show.Equally ludicrous is the idea that a little American boy is Michael the Archangel, and a little American girl is the Antichrist.The show also promotes the Roman Catholic doctrine of ecumenism, which amounts to a One World Religion. This concept is portrayed through the fact that one of the seven messengers in the show is a Muslim, one is a Taoist, at least one is an atheist, one is a prosperity preacher, and I can't remember what the rest were.I was also put off by the fact that these seven individuals are supposed to be on a holy mission for God, and yet they have no problem with having a few drinks at the bar, using cuss words occasionally, and doing other things which did not portray them as being very holy.These are just a few of the things which made my jaw drop as I watched this show. I fully understand what artistic license is, but the way that this show seriously mangles what is written in the Book of Revelation should simply be unacceptable to any Bible-believing Christian.In conclusion, if you choose to watch this show, bear in mind that while you may find it entertaining, it has no real basis in the Scriptures.
