The story will grab you, as we slowly see the animals begin asserting their control and the humans at a total loss as to what to do about it.
Mutating Wild Kingdom into a subversive fun-time apoca-thriller, Zoo is a worthy small-screen complement to a Jurassic World summer.

Great series. Something entirely new which we have not seen before.
I love most of the characters in the series, and the character development is great.

SEASON 1
When I started watching the show it was interesting and I was intrigued to watch more of it and I completed the first season that way. The show's storyline was an ongoing story which I loved and it made sense to me as I watched more episodes into the season. I love all the characters and their roles in the story. Season 1 was epic and awesome.

SEASON 1
If you’re willing to suspend enough disbelief to enjoy Zoo, you will definitely think twice before ever again saying, “Here, kitty, kitty.”
Zoo keeps things moving quickly enough to glide past its more portentous moments.
Its premise simply isn’t interesting enough to sustain the intrigue over the course of a television season.
Zoo might build toward something more satisfying, but based on the premiere, there’s not particularly strong incentive to take the bait.
We can suspend disbelief when watching “Jurassic World” because it’s dinosaurs, but when the predators are zoo animals, it’s a greater challenge to take seriously.
This show is hilarious. If you like cheese and goofy animal attacks you should give it a watch. The humor is not apparently intentional but it's glorious.

SEASON 1
I had some hopes for the show at first. The idea that the animals are banding together against humans seems interesting even if the science behind it is a little weak. But six episodes in I just want to throw a shoe at the TV. It's not the animal behavior that's the problem, it's the human behavior. It is so obvious that the producers are trying not to offend any sort of animal rights group that every episode doesn't show people fighting back at all. It's kind of crazy to think that people would not fight back against animals that are rising up against them, but that is exactly what's happening. Even in the episode where they do show people buying guns in a gun store, you never actually see any hunters doing anything. And there are so many times when it would be so easy to defend against these animals. Not only that but the people who are supposed to be scientist put themselves in ridiculous danger by going places where they know animals milescould easily get them. The plot holes are just so big, it's pretty difficult to watch. I'm giving a couple of points for the journalist and the big guy who are the only interesting human characters.

SEASON 1
The show has an interesting concept, but quickly shoots itself in the foot quite early. It doesnt start off with a rogue manatee, horse or even a rhino, no, it decides to start off with the king of the jungle, being a male lion. A male lion, not a female lion. To top this off, the show then uses two male lions. So near the end of the first episode, what does it do to top the use of two male lions? It uses 5 male lions. What, by the end of the first season it will use 50 lions to attack the protagonist? Season 2, 5 gazillion lions? It is absolutely ridiculous. Nevermind the fact that the female lions tends to be the hunters, and that there are more of them in the wild, no, this show decides to use a (relatively uncommon) male lion as a a sort of, what, zombie horde? The only thing the show has going for it is relatively decent CGI effects in where it blends the CGI lion footage with the actors. But I guess the show is, to a certain extent, bound by the content of the "book", if the book uses 5 gazillion lions, then the show must aslo. Though, there is no excuse basing a show off of a terrible book. With regards to the acting - it can be better.
