Resurrection is an American fantasy drama television series about dead people who return to life. The Number 1 Scripted Series in the United States is based on the book, “The Returned” by Jason Mott. Although similar in concept to Les Revenants, it is based on a different source, and Resurrection has no connection to the French movie or television series.

Our Opinion of Resurrection

We find the storyline extremely intriguing and very interesting. Looking at the trailer, one would have thought that this series take on a horror genre but really, it is not so scary! Rather, the series is rather mind-boggling and it makes you question everything you believe.

With a running duration of 42-44 minutes, there are a total of 8 episodes and if you’re the sort of person who’s into mysteries and thrillers, Resurrection is one tv series that you mustn’t miss!

Synopsis of Resurrection

The people of Arcadia, Missouri are forever changed when their deceased loved ones suddenly start to reappear. An 8-year-old American boy [Landon Gimenez] wakes up alone in a rice paddy in a rural Chinese province with no idea how he got there. Details start to emerge when the boy, who calls himself Jacob, recalls that his hometown is Arcadia, and an Immigration agent, J. Martin Bellamy [Omar Epps], takes him there. The home he claims as his own is occupied by a 60-year-old couple, Henry [Kurtwood Smith] and Lucille Langston [Frances Fisher], who lost their son, Jacob, more than 30 years ago.

While they look different, young Jacob recognizes them as his parents. Lucille is overjoyed at the seeming miracle of her son’s reappearance. Henry is reluctant to accept that Jacob is back. Those closest to the family want answers, including Sheriff Fred Langston [Matt Craven], whose wife Barbara drowned 30 years ago while trying to save Jacob, and Fred’s daughter, Maggie [Devin Kelley], a local doctor. Pastor Tom Hale [Mark Hildreth] seeks a spiritual reason for what’s happening in his community. When things take an even more shocking turn, Maggie’s life-long friend, Elaine Richards [Samaire Armstrong], finds herself drawn into Arcadia’s growing mystery.

Bellamy, an outsider in the town, joins forces with Maggie to figure out why the unexplainable is happening in Arcadia. As their investigation plays out, Maggie learns some unsettling truths about her own past. Will they be able to solve the mystery of Arcadia before the rest of the world catches on to events there? And will they be able to protect Jacob from forces beyond their control?

The Walking Dead is an American horror drama television series developed by Frank Darabont and it is based on the comic book series of the same name by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard. The series stars Andrew Lincoln as sheriff’s deputy Rick Grimes, who awakens from a coma to find a post-apocalyptic world dominated by flesh-eating zombies, sets out to find his family, and encounters many other survivors along the way.

The Walking Dead is in its 4th season now and if you have missed the last 3 seasons, you really ought to catch them!

In the months since the third season drew to a close and fans were left reeling from the bloodbath that claimed the lives of many of the show’s original cast members, theories and questions have been spiralling and taking seed; will the prison community survive without Rick’s leadership? What has The Governor planned for his revenge on Rick and his group of survivors? These questions will finally be answered in the premiere episode of the fourth season, directed by horror veteran, Greg Nicotero.

For those of you whom don’t have Cable TV at home, you might be wondering what exactly is Syfy because I have exactly the same question before coming to know what Syfy is. Even then, there were a handful of people whom have Cable TV at home but didn’t know about Syfy‘s existence as well.
Syfy was originally launched in 1992 as a SCI FI Channel and it is currently a media destination for imagination-based entertainment which does not limits itself to science fiction but also fantasy, paranormal, and adventure too. In Singapore, Syfy is available on Starhub Cable TV [Channel 526].

So now that you know what Syfy is, let’s go on to talk about Defiance, a 12-episode science fiction series that takes an unprecedented approach to storytelling by uniting scripted television and online gaming.

Here we were at the Screening Room last week for an exclusive preview screening of Defiance‘s 1st episode.

+Some answers to the Frequently Asked Questions about the Defiance Series+

From Syfy Defiance Preview 2013

What is the Defiance Series about?

Set in the near future, Defiance introduces an exotically transformed planet Earth where its landscapes are permanently altered following the sudden and tumultuous arrival of seven unique alien races. In this somewhat unknown and unpredictable landscape, the richly diverse, newly-formed civilization of humans and aliens must learn to co-exist peacefully.

What’s so special about the Defiance Series?
Five years in the making and with a budget of US$40 million for the first season, Defiance is Syfy’s biggest and most ambitious undertaking in its 20 year history. One unique thing about Defiance is that it takes an unprecedented approach to storytelling, uniting scripted television and online gaming for the very first time. This means that the weekly drama will have an impact on the game and gamers can actually have the opportunity to change the show as well.

There are in total 12 episodes [13 hours] with the first episode being 2-hours long.
