I can't even watch it. I mean, I tried, but... it's stupid.

I'm enjoying it (watch it mostly online, didn't have a favorable
timeslot for me when it was stil on TV). It does have some element of
"Northern Exposure with an apocalypse," and some eps are just kind of
goofy (Oh no! The library's on fire!), but overall I like the
continuity and most of the characters. Well acted, and overall
respectably realistic (I think there'd a little more fallout from
Denver, but doomsday was so well charted in "On the Beach" there's no
reason to go that route anymore).
I can see why it didn't pick up the requisite audience size, but I
think it's miles beyond the blasphemously derivative Sarah Connor
Chronicles.
