I keep seeing commercials for a new show called Resurrection where family members return from the grave after many years, one is an 8 year old. While the show has not aired yet I find this to be a terribly exploitive concept that could cause a lot of pain. So many shows play on emotions that in my opinion are just for the purpose of evoking emotions cheaply. No, I am not religious nor do I believe in censorship. I just think that being exposed to certain plot concepts trivializes real human emotions. I won't watch this show but the network is free to air it.

There is something about the short clips I've seen that I find disturbing. I am uncomfortable with the premise of the show so will choose not to watch it.

I think this series has aired in Great Britain (a Brit version) with good ratings, thus it came here. I am not interested in it.

I won't be watching this show either.........too sad because of the ones I have lost.......I don't believe that someone comes back to earth as anything.......I do believe in Heaven and H3ll..........I wish our loved ones could come back..........but I do not believe they do and I never will believe it. Too emotional for me.

It seems a little disturbing. Not sure if it is ethically fair to people who lost their loved ones.

If it's done right, it could be a very interesting concept. I will give it a try.

I would hesitate to comment on something that I have not yet seen-

I say watch one episode, and THEN make up my mind, rather than rushing to a judgement based on what I "think" or "hear" it might be about....

I can easily tell from all the previews I have seen that is not of interest to me.

I didn't have to see Texas Chainsaw Massacre to know it was not for me. Sorry if that was your favorite movie.
