Blackout has been my treadmill companion for the past few weeks and I absolutely love the series. This reminds me of the old days of listening to stories on the radio with my grandmother.

The first episode was amazing! The sound effects are incredible. I’m listening with my headphones and the sounds and bass are amazing! I’m already sucked into this show after the first episode. It’s so intense and reels you in.
Stupid ending for a lame show

It was ok at first, then got bad. Then got ok again, then got bad again. Then started to get really good with the vale episode, then they just dropped off the face of the earth ending with a confusing cliffhanger. Really not worth listening to.
Season 1 good, couldn’t finish season 2

Season 1 was enjoyable and entertaining, despite the accents that made me want to slam my head against a wall. Got 4 episodes into season 2, halfway through episode 5 and had to turn it off. The voice acting fell off a cliff and the story just wasn’t worth following anymore.
Amazing story

Voice acting is great.

I can’t understand people that like this show. Story and dialog are just ridiculous. These are cartoon characters for people to hate. Such nonsense. Stopped at the trial but it was pretty bad before that.
Ignore the “wOkEnEss” reviews, this is great!

Sludge Judge

Really cool storyline with relatable characters and an interesting and unique storyline. To all the folks getting offended at the allegedly “leftist” and “woke” elements - it’s really telling. If you’re offended by fascism and oppression being portrayed negatively, this is certainly not the show for you. If you are a decent human being who cares for other human beings and their freedom to live as they wish, this show is a chillingly accurate portrayal of a dystopian alternate future where the democratic way of life is undermined beyond repair and people are left to survive not knowing who to trust….. 5 out of 5 stars.
Great apocalyptic thriller
