Same but Better
If anyone else feels that this show had potential but seemed to be lacking something, I might be able to help. Not sure how many of you know this but before it was "Resurrection (2014)", (which i preferred). It did feel like a little something might be missing so when I came across "The Returned (2015)", I thought Yeah! I hope it answers those lingering afterthoughts. I would have to say that I did enjoy it but I would have preferred to have seen it first because it left even more things unanswered. It is funny how something can be so alike, yet so different. It is obvious that they each had different target audiences they aimed for. Either way, if you liked The Returned, you'll probably like Resurrection too.
(Side Note Bonus: Resurrection has 2 seasons to watch. S1 - 8 eps and S2 - 13 eps.)
Please excuse the messiness of my written mess!
