Origin

A lot of people are saying this is bad. I watched the whole season in a day and my honest opinion? It deserves a chance. I was weary, thought i was wasting my time watching this, but as i got more involved around episode 5-6, it actually became worth watching. Yeah, it needs work, hopefully season 2 will blow our minds away. But take my advice, just bite down till at least episode 7. You'll realize it was all worth the time invested. I didn't really feel it was worth it at first, but man, was the ending really great. Well done!!

I enjoyed this so much, it was complex but simple enough so you won't get lost in the story. Good character development, good acting, good stories. This is so much better than a lot of the shows out their in this genre, too bad it didn't get a season 2.

One of the first shows I really enjoyed that wasn't animated. I remember watching it a year back and I blazed it right through it , finishing it in a couple of days. It was dark, chilling, and exhilarating. There was no time to breathe, each scene was nerve racking and you were just waiting for something to pop up right in your face. Severely underated and isn't talked about enough. Since most people have some really short reviews I decided to spice things a bit.

A clean slate. To have your pasts erased for a better tommorow. What if I told you instead of waking up in a better tommorow you wake up in hell. Where you wanted to erase your pasts but now are vulnerable to exposing your inner demons to other people.

Very good story with eerie atmosphere and tone but with some minor flaws. It has very good writing and acting. With great subversion tropes and flashback sequences. The characters are probably one of the interesting aspects of this series. They really aren't people you are suppose to be inspired or awed by. I mean if you are told that you could go to a planet 5 light years away and you are like a millionaire or something, most likely scenario is that you aren't going to go. So imagine the types of people that would go if they were given this offer. The characters are a band of misfits that all have some form of tragedy in their past lives but their development was really nice. But what we are suppose to do is to understand them and emphatize for them. The visuals and music were above 90+. The cinematography, choregraphy, and the set designs were all beautiful. The music consisted mainly of space music and a little bit of pop and rock and the sound choices were quiet eerie.

Now let's break down alot of people's arguments. People saying it's cliched is being stupid. I mean in today's day and age when hundreds of shows and movies are being released it's very unlikely for them to be compleletly original and unique and not a little bit "cliched". Other things include stupid decisions and swearing in every sentence and dropping f bombs. Doesn't matter what kind of person you are when a person is scared they do a lot of stupid things and don't think through cuz they are guided by emotions only. And I don't wanna get too deep in psychology and things like that but swearing calms people down and helps make them feel stronger and is more expressive. And the average person swears 80 times per day. Lastly the only character that drops the f bombs often or alot is Logan/Tom Felton.

Overall a very enjoyable series and a 100% a recommened watch! Sad they never released season 2.

Memorable: So so . Rewatchable: Yes

It's pretty much scifi channel acting quality. As it progresses though into later episodes the actors get better.

Bad acting creates that sentiment to just dislike which is why i dropped a bunch of stars on this.... But it does keep improving.

Filming and cgi is pretty good. Acting not great but improves. Story is not bad actually and also improves and 'becomes' knitted together better over time.

I got to ep 6 for me before i actually became properly engaged like some other awesome shows that hooked me at ep1.

I would recommend this regardless of rating - just watch it - it is different and i do think it is strung together well and improves. I am more anchored to cinematography - for me this is nice and does improved.

Give it a go - it's not a 9+ star but sometimes a 6-7 is someone telling you they have seen better but give it a go.

Even though that is my conclusion ... this show has plagued my mind for some time since watching - and that's something i appreciate.

It reminds me of The Thing (1982) but in space. It's worth the binge watch if you are into horror and sci-fi. It also provide some good back ground stories on the character for development. Definitely hope for another season just to see where it goes.
