I love this show so far. When I saw the pilot I thought best new show I've seen in quite awhile. I love the parallels to our history of integrating black students into white schools. After watching 3 episodes I am fascinated with the alien plants and what they can do with them. The potential romance between the two main characters has me waiting eagerly for each episode. I love the bond they formed as small kids just by her act of kindness to a stranger and his attempt to protect her when they were found.
I really liked the mix of new technology in the school and throughout the show.
I know people are upset that older actors are hired to play teenagers but this happens in many TV shows. Hiring actors with experience actually makes the show more dramatic for me. I also think older/adult themes are also allowed if the actors are older and makes the show more interesting.
This is the first review I have written but I wanted my opinions to be added to here because of all the negative ones. I like this show better than The Vampire Diaries, The Originals and Supernatural all put together.
