Extinct

I have watched the first two episodes of this show and it is off to a pretty strong start. It has a great premise and solid performances by the lead actors. Being that it's a BYUtv program the production values are not the highest but that's not a problem. Big budgets can only do so much for a show and will never save a badly made one. This show is well made. I look forward to seeing how the show continues.

wonderful fast paced science fiction romp. After episode 2 I was completely into the show. solid story line which did not drag on however kept up the momentum introducing new and exciting prospects for the future.multiple scenarios with tricky concepts which by default or design, should encourage critical thinking skills as, after all, isn't that what TV should do.

Almost all the actors are young. I suppose this is an attempt to draw younger audience to BYUTV. However, most of them do a pretty good job. A couple are a little stiff. Overall, what it lacks in production value it makes up for in clever storytelling. Great job of incorporating principles such as force, free will, and liberty and that freedom is worth fighting for! I can't wait for season two!

Sci-fi is one of my favorite genres, so I was looking forward to the release of this series. I approach this category with an eye to good special effects, interesting tech, and decent acting. I feel these bases are covered fairly well. I was actually surprised by the high quality of some of the FX. The actors all seem committed to their performances. I left off 2 stars because there's certainly room for improvement. Overall definitely worth watching and recommending to others.

Another series that is mostly talking heads and does not go anywhere. The theme was somewhat different, which seemed refreshing. But it never developed and becomes boring watching similar scenes over and over again.

I tried to binge watch to get through the 8 episodes, but did not succeed, other than falling asleep. So it took a while to see all 8 episodes and then only realized that this sci-fi story is barely watchable. I came out of it with nothing good to remember.

Update: After 10 episodes seen it remains disappointing. Oh well, I'll probably not watch season 2 if that ever comes around!
