Yeah, looks like the fun is over. The first three episodes of The Event delivered a few good, sci-fi twists and weren't half bad, but the fourth, "A Matter of Life and Death," proves there is no life beyond the initial shocks. It's an episode purely about characters, never delving into the aliens or their background. It's focused directly on the characters, and when the characters are basic building blocks, it makes for an agonizing hour of television.
I'll stick around for another week, but if the show stays the same as this week, I'm out.
Score: 5.0/10
