CBS made two episodes available for review, and while they aren't especially memorable, they are no doubt what the network intended them to be: mindlessly entertaining in a kind of fair-to-middlin' way.

Salvation is a summertime network drama that's not asking anything of you but to give up an hour of your time and lose it forever. In return, you get a low-grade familiar sensation that means nothing but dulls your life a little bit.

Check out the new doomsday sci-fi summer drama starting on Wednesday. It's loads of fun. Loads! Space stuff, car chases, conspiracy plots, tense Pentagon meetings and hanky-panky.

Yes, it will still have the same trappings as most CBS dramas. It has love interest side plots and conspiracy theories, but there is something here. Something much more than most are expecting.

After so many series have failed to come to satisfying first-season conclusions after similar built-in obsolescence plots, it's hard to trust Salvation will live up to its title.

Extinction by asteroid has a neat finality about it. But the days leading up to that grand finale could be interesting. Just not as they're depicted in "Salvation."
July 10, 2017
Insufficiently inane to be funny, way too sloppy and foolish to qualify as tense, it's a grimmest foretelling ever of the way the world ends: not with a bang or a whimper, just a strangling snore.

By all means, don't ask too many questions and don't expect too much. Go along for the ride, if you're so inclined, and, even as it takes you through well-traveled territory, view it as a B-movie excursion.

The conspiracy element is easily the weakest part of the show and seems present only to drum up some modicum of suspense.
