Vagrant Queen

Based on the comic that no one bought, comes the TV series that no one watched.

Sadly this is not some hidden gem that was overlooked. It is a series that crashed and burned because it wasn't very good.

The overall impression is that the people making this didn't care about the quality of the show If the people being paid to produce, write or direct a series don't care about it then why should the audience.

Acting is underwhelming but in fairness the cast were not well served by either the awful script, the cringey humour or the lazy direction.

Not recommended.

Yeah. A few minutes in and I had to acquire an alcoholic beverage to finish it. So-so to bad acting, cheesy lines, bad jokes, plot holes bigger than a planet.

BUT! LISTEN! That is what it is SUPPOSED to be! Do not click watch to see epic sci-fi. Click watch to see beings just trying to make a living in a verse, click to see salvage operations, space ships that need repair, bars full of bar flies of all kinds, and in spite of all the cheesiness, an almost realistic grit and desperation you see in real life. I gave it a 6 because it will do, for this viewer who is addicted to all things space, until other shows come along. After the alcohol hit, it got more tolerable, even enjoyable, AS LONG AS I REALIZED WHAT TO EXPECT.

It made as much sense as Space Balls, so there's that.

Fire the Casting Director. The lead actress cannot act and lacks charisma and personality. The cast has zero chemistry. The men are either bumbling or incompetent or evil, but at least likable. The women are strong, smart, brave, but irritating. I don't mind cheesy or low-budget prosthetic makeup and special effects if the script is fun, campy and intriguing - this show is none of those things. Episode 1 will be my last.

All these reviews feel like they've been written by the same person. Vagrant Queen has alot of potential. That being said there are barriers it has to overcome to be a good show. Budget being one. Obviously they didn't have alot of money to film this. But it's still enjoyable. It's rough in some sectors. Yet that should be expected for a sci-fi show in it's first season. Let alone a show with only an episode aired. The cast was solid. Although there were spots where it seemed that Adriyan Rae came off as flat when she needed to do the emotional heavy lifting. Overall it was fun. Reminded me of some of the under the radar sci-fi shows of the past decade like Dark Matter and Killjoys. Maybe it won't reach that level but it can be fun.

It's like a collection of cringe moments :)

I don't mind the really bad CGI, costumes and so on but the main character is so not interesting. Empty characters and copy/paste elements from other movies or games. Really bad production with nothing original. AND it has that MTV cheap and PC show style which is really really awful.
