The Lottery Review

Hey People,

So I wanted to check out The Lottery on Lifetime since the premise was interesting.

Summary: Humans can't procreate anymore and nobody knows why.

So I came into this show thinking this had potential to be good and I was even more intrigued because it was on Lifetime so I watched it today. I got halfway through this show before I realized I can't watch this anymore. I usually wouldn't judge a show based on 30 minutes, but there are 2 big reasons why I quit right in the middle of it.

1) This show makes it seem like every woman is baby crazy.
2) I don't like the idea of the government controlling procreation.

If the latter was the only reason, I probably would have stuck it out until the end of the episode. However, the first one was a major factor and a huge turn off. Additionally, we're not talking about that far into the future. It's only been 9 years. I understand the need to populate, but as a sci-fi for women, I just wasn't into it.
