This is Netflix's alternate to The 100 series. The premise is simple, dump 100 teenagers into a town in which they cant escape and watch the fun.
Welcome to a world where everyone is more interested in their small personal drama's rather than seeing a big picture. Where people blame each other for being related to someone who might have done something wrong. Where people don't have the foresight to think ahead, even in terms of basic projection and where these apparent pre-college students have about an average IQ of 80.
Unfortunately it all comes down to the writers. A show like this is indicative of the intelligence of the writers. It definitely shows that they have chosen drama writers, not science fiction ones to spearhead the plot. And even the drama is shallow, the characters seem bland and often don't have any actual character development.
The worst part about it is that it was a great premise, I think the actors have done well with what they had to work with, direction and cinematography is all in order. But the writing especially in regards to characterization is awful and plot is predictable. .
