Title: The 4400
Post by: Melbosa on January 20, 2022, 04:32:54 PM
I'm really enjoying the reboot of The 4400: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9319770/. The original show was well done, but had some flaws. So far this one is fairing better IMO.  Yet when I check ratings of the show, its doing far worse than the original.

I think today's landscape and glorious levels of streaming and networks is causing people to be more picky of shows. There may be just too many shows on the market with people having special powers that this one gets a bad rap for not actually focusing on the power part as much.  Its a drama and mystery not an action show (like the Flash, Super Girl, etc)... think Heroes season 1 versus the rest of the seasons.

Anyway, I just wanted to share my thoughts about the show in contrast to the reviews of it. And if you never checked out the original, I think it would hold up today to watch it: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0389564/

I think the problem might be remake burnout.

I'll check it out though, I enjoyed the original (at least the beginning bits)
