quintusxerxes It started of good. It was intriguing, pulled you in, gave you hope of a good series. But the adults. Oh my, the adults, who are supposed to be smart, reasonable people, especially those who have high positions in the government. But no. The disregard everything they must have been taught. They act so stupid it makes me angry. And other people let them! It ruins everything. It's awful. Don't watch it.
ianwhalley Excellent show that would do well if adopted by Netflix to secure a longer run than one series. The promise was there for the programme, may be we should have got there quicker for it to survive the culling from a myopia executive at ABC. I recommend it, though without a second series being made, it is rather short, with passing probably too slow to build to the promise the end of run cliff hanger gave.Are we alone? Yes. ABC canned it.
Sam This series shows the viewer just enough passion and originality, to get you interested. But then it turns around and give us characters and plots, which should only impress a child. Granted, the child actors are good. But if you write a plot, that will only work if every responsible adult acts immature reckless and unintelligent to the point of being children themselves, then you have a badly written story! I know that many people will still be able to enjoy these shows, in the same way that a lot of people still go and see Michael Bay movies, despite their flaws. The Whispers don't work for anyone who wish for intelligently written characters and plots. But for those who can ignore the lack of effort, on these points, will still find an intriguing emotional drama. I am not one of those people.I see such potential in the Whispers! The concept of invading earth, through the manipulation and control of children, is a very appealing idea, to me. This could have been turned into a truly creepy and engaging story, if the kids were circumventing intelligent responsible adults and government agencies. It could also have worked as a dark comedy, if the adults were dumb, because they were all a result of putting Donald Trump and his constituents in charge of running America.Sci-fi has it tough. Reason being that it has a smaller audience. Most good shows don't get the ratings they need to satisfy the greed pervading the American entertainment industry. The Whispers is not one of those good shows! This show is just another attempt at getting as many viewers with as little effort as possible. It will only appeal to those who seeks drama, above all else. As it stands, I am glad that this show was canceled. I give the music, child actors and plot potential a star each.
blahblahblah91 I'm not sure where people are getting Poltergeist meets Close Encounters Of The Third Kind meets Children Of The Corn, clearly they have not actually seen those movies. I was also confused by the complaint too many TV shows are serious, did the commercials for it make it look like it would be a comedy? I like the TV show, it's not the typical show, maybe that's why some don't care for it-some are a bit harsh imo-The point is to not know who is going after the children right off the bat, the point is to wonder who it is, and wait to find out! Lily is fantastic, Abby Ryder Fortson is great, the rest of kids are believable and adorable and I'm glad to have something different to watch this summer :) Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I suggest checking it out for yourself :)
