    Better than expected
    I don't really do webisodes - watching five minutes at a time just doesn't interest me, unless I can wait till they're all completed and then watch them together. I haven't watched a webisode since Battlestar Galactica.

    My wife strong-armed me into watching this, and I'm glad she did. This was really quite impeccable, and quite frankly it puts the NBC show Revolution to shame because it does far more with a fraction of the budget. While Revolution is trying to convince you that an incredibly attractive group running around in Abercrombie & Fitch clothing is living in a post-apocalyptic world, Nuclear Family does a significantly better job of selling the reality.

    Sure, it's a bit rough around the edges, but all of that can be attributed to the lack of a budget. The writing is top notch. And the addition of Ray Wise as "The Man" just tickles my fancy. It reminded me of his turn as the Devil in Reaper, another underwatched and underrated gem.

    This show is currently On Demand on Syfy. Definitely worth a glance.
