ReGenesis

This has held my interest for the duration.. I just don't get the 30 second 'time loop' flashbacks. cannot for the life of me understand their purpose, become disruptive..

Science talk fascinating.. Knowing noting about the subject, it sounds plausible, and is like a DNA 'who-dun-it' from episode to episode..

Characters, casting good.. Pretty much every actor gets a chance to 'shine in the light'. which makes it more appealing.. They really skirt some issues, they bring up, then again, this is entertainment, not soul evolving preaching.

All in all pretty fine.

I have loved this TV show ever since it has been released and even in 2019 it is still remarkable.

Yes it is Sci-Fi sometimes so therefor some of the scientific stories are not always going to be 100% correct you have to understand this and only then will you enjoy it for what it is.

The acting is brilliant as I have always liked Peter Outerbridge who plays the tough and hard David the main PHD scientist at NORBAC. A very underrated TV show that really didn't get the appraisal that it deserved probably because it is Canadian and I never heard of it till I found the season 1 box in my local supermarket in England back in 2006 as I have always loved science so I thought i'd take a risk and buy it... a risk well deserved.

It really is a show that makes you think.. What if we as humans went too far? What if we dug up a body in the permafrost that containted Spanish flu and somehow entered the food chain of wild animals then passed onto us... What if! and as Sci-fi we can enter this world and speculate very much like Jurassic Park as we all know the story of the mosquito DNA from amber was used and mixed with DNA of frogs to create dinosaurs.

Take the show for what it is and enjoy this masterpeice.

Really enjoyed this series which has only just reached Australia. One of the cable channels out here screened 5 episodes a week so it was just like watching the boxed set.

Seasons 1 and 2 in particular were very good. Some of the story lines in Seasons 3 and 4 stretched the imagination a bit too far but they had created such a great group of characters by that time that it didn't really matter.

In particular Peter Outerbridge as David Sandstrom was a great lead character.

It will be missed.

This show had me on the edge of my seat so many times. The main character was a mess mentally and emotionally, but that seems to be the trend lately - a brilliant but messed up genius. It does make for some twisty stories though, some very heart-wrenching. Also lots of politics and business power-plays that makes us think more than most shows.

A few story lines towards the end really stretched the imagination IMO, but overall, most of the stories seemed plausible (I took one microbiology course and lower level organic chemistry, so an actual scientist might think differently). I recommend it for viewers that enjoy House and Bones.

I'm generally very hard on TV shows. It's so rare that I really get the desire to follow one through...I'm a fan of movies, and I don't have time to lose on something that actually doesn't end soon :) But, ReGenesis got me! I'm not sure I can fully explain why... Yes, I am science freak. I practically understand everything they're talking about without explanations. However, when I look at it, CSI is for science freaks too, but I could never really fall into it. OK, it's different type of science, but CSI always seemed to me too exaggerated, too artificial.

There's something about ReGenesis... It's dark and mystical, and yet, it brings such fresh and amazing ideas! Combining science of today, and science of future, in such a subtle way. Everything is so well grounded. I must give respect to the science consultant. There are no errors or holes, everything is so logical and so possible. And so real-life dark.

Actors and characters are all great, but my true fascination goes to director. Really fresh approach on light, on time dimension, on camera movements. Excellent job!

All considering... this kept me glued to my chair, I warmly recommend it! :)
