An interesting Black Comedy which tries to add too many elements to the Mix and eventually FAILS.
7 December 2015
This is a series about the end of life on Earth because of a meteor that concludes (?) in 10 episodes.

It is basically a satire. The sort of use of humor that has lots of irony, exaggeration, while tries to ridicule, to expose and criticize people's stupidity and vices, politics and of course religion. It has some (maybe) funny moments, but it is black comedy, sometimes even gritty.

It tries to mix too many elements though which, especially in the 10th and final episode where the supernatural becomes more apparent, make the whole series ludicrous.

I don't want to spoil you but you will not get IMO a satisfying conclusion. You will hope for more, during the course of the show, but I think you will end-up empty handed, or maybe holding the "usual" last scene twist in such sort of movies or TV-series.

The cast is capable and the direction adequate but there are things to be desired.

Overall: I don't regret for the 10 42-minutes episodes I watched in 2 days, but the conclusion could have been with more substance and not going for the twist-y easy way out.
