It’s TvFriday!!! Time to talk about series, movies and everything related to the show business! Today I will tell you about one of the series I’m currently looking, not the best of the list, but well, at least is a bit entertaining.
The Lottery tells the story of our world (in some years) where we end up next to extinction since every women in the world have been unable to give birth. Dr. Alison Lennon, is a geneticist that works to fertilize some eggs collected since the situation reached every country in the world. Plot starts when Dr. Lennon fertilizes 100 eggs and the president of USA tells to the world that he will give the eggs to the surrogates using a lottery system… or at least that’s what they say.
Acting are a bit boring, however, plot is quite interesting… maybe if they had chosen a different cast, this serie wouldn’t leave so much behind (specially the guy who plays the president… he seems to eat botox for breakfast,lunch and dinner.).
I don’t know if you have realized, but lately every single serie that has been released in the past 3-4 months tells the story of virus or diseases that break out and threaten to kill humanity (either natural or supernatural virus). Is like if every year writers select a plot and at least 60% of the series released keep the same style (The Strain – The Lottery – Helix – etc ) Maybe we are looking into a premonition or just a desire of those writers to end with human race?
This serie just have released about 5 episodes and since some subtitles took too long to come out, I took the liberty to translate some into spanish. First one was awful, but the second one was much much better… I guess it’s good to always try something new. You can find them at SubdivX. Now, tell me what do you think about this show!
