I will say I am surprised, I had all but given up after last season. Same. Another great show this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peeing, there was that blanket there she could have wiped with if dumping, but didnt go for it. This was the first episode that was only good and not great. Just seemed like a lot of filler and build up, movement of characters for the next episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved it. tbh, haven't felt like any episode this season has been filler. It's that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gern Blanston Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Watched S1E1 last night - heard a lot of good things about this show (like comparing it to GoT in space, etc.) I am trying to keep my expectations in check, but 1 episode in and I am hoping it just needs some time and a few episodes to breath and characters to flesh out a bit. It seems a little all over the place at the moment, which isn't helping, but at least I know there are multiple seasons to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick with it. This season is the best imo and it isn't even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gern Blanston Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Banged out another 2 episodes. I'm intrigued enough to keep going. Maybe its my hearing, but the whole detective guy angle on Ceres(?) is a little hard to follow. Not sure if its the accents or what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's exactly how it starts and then it all kinda ties together and hits you about 2/3 way through season 1. Season 5 is pretty darn good so far btw. About 5-6 episodes in.

Mike030270 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Just finished binge watching. HOLY F This was so much better than last season Spoiler So the first episode kind of bothered me by them being so close to an explosion. I would have assumed they would get hit by debris The villain's voice was bothering me. The actor was really trying to be sinister and was over doing it with his voice. He kept reminding me of some previous villain that I couldn't think of Figures they killed off someone. Now was it the same with the books or did they just want to kill someone? The space jump wasn't really believable but we also don't have the tech of whatever she used so that helps make it more believable I thought the CGI on some parts seemed kind of cheap though I don't understand how the big rock can be covered with stealth tech yet when it was broken up the little pieces were also covered. Only the outer parts should be covered I would think Amos is awesome lol it'll be interesting if they have the new girl be part of the crew from now on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opengeo Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 I loved this season overall, but was very meh on the finale, and especially on where the show appears to be headed for season 6. Messing with the ring in season 4 nearly killed the whole thing for me and many others. 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This actually opens it up more IMO Spoiler He said he thinks they were waking up the thing that destroyed civilizations every time they went through the gate and then you see the thing.

Mike030270 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Well whoever the hell plays Amos better not F up in real life. His character is awesome My favorite line was Spoiler Amos while they were in the woods Could’ve stood that drink… maybe a few more hours by that fire. I feel like I haven’t been warm in years. What’s going on? Making sure he’s not following us. He was harmless. [Amos] Maybe. The thing about civilization is, it keeps you civil. Get rid of one, you can’t count on the other. It’s like you’ve done this before. I grew up like this. Everyone else is just playing catch-up. People are tribal. The more settled things are, the bigger the tribes can be. The churn comes, and the tribes get small again. Right now, you and I are a tribe of two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gern Blanston Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I'm 100% into this show now, about half way thru Season 2 now I think, really liking it a lot. I'm guessing that it comes back as important later on, but a couple episodes back, they spent a lot of story time doing a couple flashbacks where some dude launched/invented the engine/motor all their ships now use to get around, and unless I completely missed something, the last I saw he was just hurtling out into space slowly dying from the G forces and unable to move his arms to shut down his engine. They haven't come back to him or referenced him since which seems odd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawkins4prez Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I thought season 5 was the best since S2. looking forward to what should be a great final S6. First time in show's history I thought Amos wasn't the best character. I'd give that title to Drummond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
