i remember when this dreadful mini series first play . there be ton of controversy over it which immediately disappear after the series air ( people saw how boring and pointless it be ) . the premise be a good one ( russia take over america ) but this be basically boring . it move at a snails pace . i watch the whole thing hop it would get good but it never do . the script and character be hopeless nonstop clichés that i have see hundred of time before . they have some great actor in this ( like christine lahti ) give their bad performance . it not available in any format for a good reason who would buy it . maybe the 16 or so people here who be give it a good rating would purchase it but nobody else . this mini deserve the obscurity it have . a 1 all the way .
