I was bored today while I was grading student homework and decided to put on a television show. DEAD SET had been on my list for a little while, so I decided to give it a go. This show takes place mostly in the British BIG BROTHER house, and they don't know that the zombie apocalypse has started.
This was a great show, and very easy to watch. Each episode was about 21 minutes long, and they seemed to go by slow and fast at the same time. Each episode was action packed and for 21 minutes it was really great to have so much happen in each episode.
The characters were all wonderful, you had the stupid girl and the stupid guy who each take turns getting everyone killed. There is the good guy who may not make it to the end because he is so good and helps the others survive, so can he live? There is the girlfriend looking for her boyfriend, this character usually starts as a screaming bimbo who almost gets herself killed several times, but she usually ends this as a badass. There are the filler characters, the emotional one who tries to help someone who was bitten or whatever and ends up dying, the guy who is a stoner or drinker who eventually turns into the guy who almost saves them all, the guy who looks unassuming and ends up being the one who is surprisingly great with a gun. And of course there is the jackass who ends up doing stupid, selfish stuff and gets others killed. All of these characters were fabulous and interesting.
The action doesn't take place in very many places, the studio and a little outside in the real world, and there are television cameras to look at. This isn't your typical zombie show. It didn't end as I expected, and I was actually I surprised it ended the way it did. It was fascinating and I absolutely loved it. It is a short commitment, one season, five episodes, about 21 minutes each, give it a whirl. It is better than watching a stupid movie you may not end up liking.
I will add one more thing, this show is pretty gory. So if you aren't good with a lot of gore, blood, and flesh eating, don't even start it. If you are okay with all of that, then I highly recommend this show.
