ABC has needed a good Sci-Fi show for a while now and The Crossing is it. Tonight at 10p, you will see why I love it so much.
Sheriff Jude Ellis (Steve Zahn) has been informed that a body washed up in his small town and they want him to look into the mysterious person. When he gets there, he discovers it is a little girl, Leah (Bailey Skodje), and he breathes life into her lifeless body. Just when he thinks he has saved the day, his deputy, Nestor Rosario (Rick Gomez), tells him to look. That is because there are hundreds of bodies floating in the water towards them.
Of the nearly 500 bodies, 47 of them survived and they have a secret. They are from over 150 years in future and they are here to prevent their future. A future full of war and disease. If that is not hard enough to believe, then how about they are not first people to come from their time to our time. How have the past visitors embedded themselves into our time?
Then there are some key questions like why are they here? Why now? Why this place? What do they want? How bad is their future? Those questions will be answered in future episodes as they try to assimilate into our time. Well, as much as they can because Department of Homeland Security is forcing them to live in a camp for our protection and to study them.
Good thing not all of them were captured. Reece (Natalie Martinez) was able to get away from the others. The only problem is her daughter, Leah, was captured with the rest of them and she wants her back. She will work with the sheriff to find her daughter since the DHS has taken over the investigation of the mysterious people. During their search, she will reveal how much more evolved they are in the future as compared to now.
There are so many questions left to be answered. If you love a good Sci-Fi thriller, then you are going to love this show as much as I do. It is a slow suspenseful mystery, that leaves you on the edge of your seat. Something all of us crave every now and again.
