Earth 2

I began watching this show when it first aired and I still have not seen anything past, present, or forthcoming that could possibly compare to its intelligence. This was absolutely, positively the greatest show I've ever seen. The characters were great. The continuity was fabulous. The writing was outstanding. It hurts to know it will not return except to Sci-Fi channel for re-run airing. NBC just didn't have the guts to stick it out like Fox did with the X-Files (which did worse than E2 in its first season). Anyway, if anybody important reads this...that is, somebody with money and some pull with Universal. Here's my list of demands: 1). Bring back the show, 2). Do TV movies about it, 3). Release the season that aired on Video Tape so I can purchase decent copies. Do these things and nobody gets hurt! I have a loaded pen and/or keyboard and I'm not afraid to use it! LOL. C'mon, I'm dyin' here!

When you read the reviews you see that there is no middle ground. You either love it or hate it. To me, it wasn't that radical, but I can certainly understand the feelings involved. Bored with recipe sci-fi series with the military crew on a ship doing justice for... justice's sake, one becomes to expect everything from any series that has a shred of originality.

Well, Earth 2 is not the answer. While it did have a nice starting point, a "crew" of civilians and interesting aliens, the script pretty much sucked, being either too smart, either too dumb. However, it sure beats the hell out of Lost and other mumbo jumbo series that now win award after award. I can almost feel sorry for the poor writers that would have to quickly end those series when the audience drops.

So yeah, Earth 2 was rather original and no, it wasn't very well written, but I'd rather watch a poorly written show with a good idea than a predictable and boring very well written one. Unluckily for me, I just love sci-fi, so I'll probably watch them all, good and bad.

This show was aired in Pakistan in 1996, and it was my favourite show then. The plot was gripping, the acting and the entire setting of the show was awesome. The aliens [can't remember what they were called now] were really chilling to watch, and each episode did have something interesting and different to offer than the previous one. I wish they'd air it again over here, I miss watching it.

Wonderful characters, acting and plot. One of the few Science Fiction shows to hold my interest more than 1 episode. I loved the Gaian element about environment protection. The "dramatic saga" feel to the show was a fresh approach to the Warring Spaceships that most shows use. The only horrible thing about the show was it only had 22 episodes.

Why? They keep Voyager going for seven years and cancel this?! Shows what a silver catsuit can do doesn't it?! This series was incredible. The best Sci Fi series I've seen by far. Great characters, interesting plot, and fabulous acting (Jessica Steen in particular). It's just such a shame it wasn't given a chance. What happened with Devon? Did they reach New Pacifica? Might be nice if someone decided to do a few novels. Just a hint! Thanks for creating a series that combined an intriguing story with realistic characters (Star Trek writers take note!)
