Executive producers David Seltzer, Gavin Polone.
The last two graphs of the review by TV critic Paul Brownfield in Wednesday's L.A. Times:
Created by David Seltzer, who wrote "The Omen" (1976), "Revelations" has plenty of muddled contemporary relevancies — compellingly weird things happening in Florida, snippets of news footage of war, genocide and satanic murders. But the series, oddly, loses most of its credibility on smaller suspensions of disbelief, comparatively easy stuff like, what exactly does this guy do for a living? And why is there no security line at the Miami airport?
It's Hollywood, that's why, where Catholics are more photogenic than the fundamentalist Christians who belong in this story and where all professors work at Harvard. And where the fate of the whole wide world comes down to a good-looking guy and a good-looking girl who need each other as much as the rest of us need them.
