Another Life

So I watched a few more then went straight to the final episode. No regrets. But still, this show is a car crash you can't look away from. Behaviour of the crew sent to save Earth is completely devoid of believability due to the terrible writing not taking into account any form of rationality. The writers may have been teenagers, because that is the only way the characters in this show interact. Zero depth. But maybe that's intentional? Maybe they want the show to be like this so you watch it to feel better about yourself.. reality tv at its worst has more believable emotions.

Good Sci-Fi is about good stories where science is the backdrop. They try to answer "what if?", but usually they respect basic well-established scientific principles. This show violates all those things. Unínteresting story, unlikable characters and disregard for science. (Hint: dark matter is not a black cloud, nor is it opaque: it's invisible.)

Very disappointing. I had high expections going in, I tried to be patient and tolerant, but it's just so poorly written with so many shallow chars and plot lines. Great to see Katee back on the screen but even she can't save this pile of garbage.

The dialogue and acting was very suspect in the first few episodes of the show. It's hard to tell if it was the writers or the actors themselves; however, as the story developed, everything seemed to get much smoother. Sometimes you have to look beyond the cheesy sci-fi facade and enjoys the story for what it is. I implore those of you who are reading this to watch until episode 10. I, for one, think that this story has a lot of potential, and I hope the long list of gut reaction 1-2 star reviews don't destroy that chance. If you're going to write a review, you should at least be required to watch the entire series.

I tortured my self by watching two episodes of this absolute garbage show. As if they'd put the most incompetent people on the bloody planet in to the space ship that is meant to save Earth.

Whiny, absolutely moronic characters who think it's worth the 11% chance to kill everyone on board, to save a few months worth of travel. As if anyone with an IQ above 40 would reason "Hey, it's just 11% chance to doom the ship and possibly the planet".

The so called "science" in the show is just out the window as well.
