It's time to give up!!! Struggled through season 1 as I tend to do that to give the series a chance thinking it couldn't get any worse surprised they renewed it for season two so gave it a couple of episodes of season 2 in the hope that writers had made the decision to do some research on the time period and maybe NBC had brought in better writers to fix the characters, plot and script but alas no. This was an interesting idea and could of been a really good series if they had at least done research on the Mesolithic era and what it would be like for modern humans to live in that era but they have not, surely they could of spoken to a couple of palaeontologists or at least googled it to at least get some ideas as it could of given us believable main characters who you could care about and are invested in but because the writing is so messy and script is so bad plus if the acting had been better you literally don't care about them as the writing is lazy because there are the same problems you get with every other survival against the element series for example they have been there a couple of days and they have all turned into Bear Grylls or navy seals, all of the main male characters have grown no facial hair as there all clean shaven. The woods are full of big beasties yet they keep running of into the woods on there own. The locals speak perfectly modern English with no explanation why plus all the locals are dressed like extras from pirates of the Caribbean the new baddies look like something of mad max and are running round with flint spears but have metal knifes and machete type weapons considering humans didn't start forging metal until about 6000Bc (I know it could be something to do with that tower) And every new characters to arrive knows someone already there. There are so meany flaws with this show I honestly don't think it can be saved I would be surprised if it renewed again after all the negative reviews.
