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.

If you know something about biotechnology and chemistry etc., try to figure out what is wrong with the plots. An old master's degree in biochemistry is not always enough to find those out, and maybe some are quite possible. In addition, the personal issues in the series are interesting also from the scientific point of view. Sadly, missed the first episodes of season two, as the series airs on a minor channel here, luckily a DVD-set should become available.

The most upsetting and nerve-wrecking currently airing TV-series for me, some episodes have even made me lose my sleep. Other episodes have kept me thinking for a couple of days after seeing them. I highly recommend this series to anyone thinking about scientific career or to someone already in a one.

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 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.

I don't usually post comments on stuff I like, I cannot possibly name a list of favorite sci-fi or favorite sci-fi shows but I can name some contenders and this one is on that list so far..

Since I'm a bit of a amateur scientist.. I can understand a lot of the concepts this show talks about because I do enough scientific reading to understand. (basically speaking this deals with a lot of modern scientific issues)

And I have to say that the first two hour episode of series 1 is just amazing.. I would highly recommend to people interested in a science related fiction story.. with a plot! (and this is science.. it's a science drama really)

I can't say however watching season 2 at the moment that I'm as awe inspired as season 1.. but we'll see..
