Series Info

Six twentysomethings confront post-graduate life in New York City in this sudsy nighttime drama from `Dawson's Creek' creator Kevin Williamson. The show's title was an unfortunate reflection of its ratings---it lasted a mere three weeks on ABC, though several episodes aired on cable in 2001.

Critics Consensus: Wasteland aspires to voice the anxieties of a generation while only offering unrealistic avatars, making for a moody slog that is pretentious as it is vapid.
