Intergalactic

It is hard to describe exactly how bad this show is.

It seems that the producers wished to portray women in dominant positions, showcase women of colour and flesh it out with some dubious-gender roles. An ability to act, it would seem, was not a requirement and may even have hindered hopeful applicants.

Stereotypes, cliches, emotion-driven actions .. everything that a Female-centric platform would want to eliminate ..., they're all here, and they're in your face.

The only impressive feature is that someone has actually managed to produce a show that gives the exact opposite meaning to the one they intended .. and they did it so well.

The "Woke" and the "Feminists" are going to have a hard time with this one, because they won't know whether they should be supporting it or protesting against it.

Characters get better by ep.5 - even the men are getting less whiney; 'captain' is still far too shouty and unstable: not sure she got this far in life. Witch woman, tech-girl and flyboy are good characters now; screwball and dread-girl getting better.

Something very strange is going on here, everything up to the prison ship was first class but then collapsed into some of the worst acting I have ever witnessed. The actors performance was astonishingly poor and makes you wonder whether any of these people have ever even seen the inside of a dramatic arts Academy. My rating went from a high 8 to a low 2 between one scene and the next it was so bad. Then as if by magic, the direction/acting performance quality returned! It's all very strange and once you are through the first couple of episodes the show starts to get good. As a result, I'm hoping that the prison ship acting fiasco was just a blip and I'm actually starting to think that an assistant director (after a heavy nights drinking) told the actors to behave as weirdly crazy as possible.

Now, about the special effects, I've even seen a couple of reviews that have even suggested that the effects were "cheap and nasty". Well, I worked in the industry for 20 years and these are some excellent sets and effects. Actually, the only negative effects that I could pick up on was of the motion of the personal police ship at the start of episode one.

It was fun to watch. The story have some twists, romance, action, and lots of violence and blood!

The acting was not bad, the storyline could be better and the characters could have more depth and background story. But, I guess this gives the writers some materials for season two..

Pretty weak script, but the story premise is interesting and I enjoyed it well enough. With a bit more focus on sxript, this show could bloom in season 2. Not a 10 out of 10, but not a 4 as is rated either.
