Despite one or two sentimental moments and a rather unsophisticated and horribly insistent score, this well written and decently played post-apocalyptic series, which appears to be aiming for somewhere between 24 and Lost, depicting the battle for survival of the residents of a small, isolated Kansas town after a mysterious nuclear terrorist attack, is a fast moving and hopelessly addictive viewing experience.
