Pandora

It's got everything you don't want, cliche laden dialog, awkward character actors, cheesy set designs and plot holes you could steer an oil tanker through. I understand why people would sing on to this show. I mean, everybody has to work, right? What I don't understand is how anyone would have thought this was worth producing? Someone actually liked this enough to pay for it. Remember, this is not just a piece of crap, it's a very expensive piece of crap.

Yet really good shows get cancelled all the time. TV companies are really unfair, and this should have never have been given a second season.

A young woman's family is killed by mysterious forces, which results in her traveling to study with an uncle(?) at the space academy while figuring out what happened back home.

This low budget space faring adventure comes in low and crashes on the runway. Dialog is rough. Production values for a story set hundreds of years in the future aren't at a level to make a believable series. Effects look incredibly cheap. Wardrobe looks passable and futuristic in some scenes, but in other scenes, it looks like the cast shot in whatever they were wearing when they arrived on set. Overall, the series is so rough around the edges that it's surprising CW picked it up for broadcast.

Cgi & special effects are about par with other sci-fi shows, dialogue, characters & general storyline are pretty sub par, awful posh English accents, chuck in the usual silly soap opera garbage with the high school drama codswallop & you've got a pretty boring silly TV show, barely any characters are interesting or likeable, sets, clothes & doritos!!! all make it look like a cheap 80s TV show, really can't see who would be interested in this, ignore the idiot reviewers stating they know what sci-fi is, regardless of genre if the writing is good & the story & plot is handled well then it's worth watching,sadly this has none of those ingredients.

My first complaint is the acting its subpar, it feels to me like a Teen Series at best you better watch far from superior shows like The expanse or Dark matter.

2 the story: it is very basic for a first episode, not memorable, and nothing that seems really good enought to want me to see a second episode.

3- the Chemistry between the characters is a big zero to me. it feels artificial, charisma of characters is just not there, they need someone like at least for a main character thats gonna pull up the rest of the cast and im not seeying it here.

its like one of my buddy says if a character "X" dies and u would care? if u say no what does that tell u about the character ?? he or she feels insignificant... well thats how i feel with these characters.

4- the special FX, they feel like an old scifi from the 90s series on a very low budget. If only they had made em alot better i would understand and think; oh they put all the money into FX and invested zero into story telling or charismatic actors but thats not even the case here.

i might force myself to watch a second episode but my expectation very low.
