The Lottery (Lifetime)

Mr E

New show started last night.

Set in a world destined for extinction as women have stopped having children. When remarkably 100 embryos are successfully fertilized, a national lottery is held to decide the surrogates.

Seems like a decent little sci-fi/drama/thriller. I just watched the first episode and it held my interest.

I can't wait to see this, the premise screams Children of Men so it'll definitely be a must watch for me!

Loved Children of Men, trailer looks good, will give it a look. Thanks OP

Mr E

Well the fact that all 10 episodes were written by the writer of Children of Men certainly helps.

Started in the States last night. Safe to assume it will be on Lifetime over here eventually.

It'll probably take a lifetime so.

Written by P D James? I didn't see that in the credits.

The guy who adapted P D James book of Children of Men to the screen is the screen writer on this.

Apparently she was quite happy with the adaptation.
