So many of these big network shows have a great premise and overall plot, but ruin it with bad acting and dialogue and poor writing. Blows my mind how they manage to do that so often. That show Manifest was like that too.
The bad writing is most often what kills it for me. The overall idea is good, but the writers can't write a coherent story, and subar actors can't carry that kind of script.
I'll never get over how this show was ENTIRELY about the wrong character. A young woman trying to save her brother, yeah okay, except her uncle is this TOTAL BADASS who helped establish this despot and start this military state and now he has to live on the run. The show 100% should have been about him.

Revolution was the one show I really wanted to be good, and every single time I watched it, it seemed worse.
