EPISODE
Crisis - Season 1
Ballard High is a school that educates elite children, industry executives, political players and the President's son. This school is more important because it has a group of the most influential students in the community. That school decided one day to take an outside flight but was ambushed by their bus on a secluded rural road. A group of gangs take teenagers and their companions, sparking a national crisis at the time.

The mood music in Crisis can be over-wrought at times -- and downright over-bearing when a male vocalist breaks into "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." But the first two hours are nicely paced and eventful.

Crisis spends so much time constructing a complicated world that it forgets to populate it with anyone worth watching.

Sometimes the only way to save a stupid TV show is to make it more stupid. This, anyway, is my note to the creators of Crisis.

Smart new techno-thriller led by the always good Mulroney.
