I haven't seen anyone writing about this on the forums, but the reviews looked positive so I acquired season 1. Marilyn and I only watched the first two, but so far I really like it. Old style space adventure!
I wont tell you anything about the first episode. I would suggest you watch it cold, with no research. It's one of the best opening 20 minutes you'll see. At least the most interesting.
I always worry though that it will peter out as The Dome did, becoming a teenage soap opera type thing. But so far, so good. Let's hope.
Interesting how they wait until the last minute of the program, to then show a zinger, which makes you want to see the next episode. :-)
