    Watched the first 2 episodes.

    I was surprised by the special effects. Pretty impressive.

    Storyline line is solid, intense moments are pretty good. Intrigue good, sort of a Lost feel. Dialogue kinda corny, overall acting pretty weak. If they were to bring in a bigger name actor than Parker Posey they might have something really really good.

    7/10 so far

    Of course. You have to have at least one of those now.

    Thought it kind of sucked, to be honest. They tried to capture the feel of the old show, where there's never any real peril and the good guys always win. Outside of some kid shows, that doesn't really work in modern story-telling. It also doesn't help that they made this into a long narrative arc, whereas the idea would have fit better as an episodic series. Finally, some of the oversights in basic science were too egregious to ignore. I'm not a huge stickler for those sorts of things, but it was really bad here.

    I watched the whole season, though, and I didn't hate it. The kid actor was pretty good, though his character sucks ass. Smith is a pretty good antagonist. The choice to make her more like Team Rocket and less like Frieza (to borrow from old anime references), fits the storyline better. The robot looked cool and was probably the best overall character.

    I got the same vibe from reading the reviews for different sites. This show is not long for this world.

    Netflix caught a taste of cancelling shows so I think this one will be the next to not be renew so why waste my time on it.

    The Rain looks promising though. Watched the first episode and it's very intriguing.

    Good to know. I won't watch the rest of it then.

    Thanks for the reviews. Will probably finish it just for closure.

    I had a hard time watching it. Not a very compelling show, tbh. Would not recommend.

    Then you missed the robot killing spree. I was hoping that would at least lead to something cool.
