“See” is much more invested in a simple survival story, mixing Knight’s typical self-serious writing with a bit of sci-fi fun. The balance isn’t quite there yet, as episodes don’t exactly earn their hourlong run time. Momoa, meanwhile, fits the role well.

Unfortunately, the story hasn’t caught up to the ambition of the production design in the first few episodes.

“See” is a gorgeously filmed series, and props are due to director Francis Lawrence for making the most its British Columbia settings. There’s also just enough fodder for thought in its exploration of how the massive scale elimination of a sense humans take for granted might, indeed, change the world. However – and yes, go ahead and call me a sensitive snowflake for this – there’s something profoundly ableist in the proposal that blind people would, in the span of a few generations, somehow forget that the sun is a big ball of flaming gas and start talking like Lothar of the Hill People.

See isn't close to a good show thus far, but it does just enough to make you believe that under the right circumstances, there might be a good show here somewhere, eventually.

The story doesn’t gel well, and the video-game-like combat sequences can be exhausting. “See” is a camp-watch, and not much more.

The majority of Knight’s series is a self-serious dirge, where sight-based wordplay like “So they just walk around with their eyes closed?” is delivered with a straight face. In the end, See’s myriad absurdities somehow add up only to a run-of-the-mill dystopia, where the children are the “chosen ones” and the tyrant must be overthrown.

The execution, particularly in scripts by Steven Knight (of January’s box-office bomb Serenity), is an unmitigated disaster. ... Not to put too fine a point on it, See is one of the worst TV series I’ve seen in years.

Hater gonna hate but apple dont give a **** about you i have no idea why you guy dont like it maybe you guys must be old as F*** or *******3

I attended the premiere in L.A. and even as they were introducing it, I got the feeling that this was going to be an engineered and soulless product. One hour later, we were proven right. Visually and production-design wise it is astounding, and in all fairness the actors are pretty good (even if Momoa's character feels like a rehash of some of his previous roles), but the story is just so dull and incoherent, as if they were just checking boxes out of a list of "cool stuff your would-be hit-show must include". Violence? Check. Nudity? Check. Profanity? Check. Evil tyrant? Check. Chosen ones? Check. Set pieces? Check. A mystery? Check. Treason? Check. An actual, coherent story? Ups!

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

An interesting idea for a show, but for a season? I found myself losing interest by the end of the first show. There wasn't enough to keep me going. So admittedly, I've only seen the first show and I can't believe this could be renewed already for season 2. This wasn't for me.

Beautiful landscapes but simply ridiculous script. Another variation of Mad Max where everyone is ugly dirty and bad.
