One of those scifi shows that started off with a solid premise, story, and acting but turn took some hard DOWN turn in the middle / latter seasons. Like they just hired a kid or meth head (perhaps both?) to finish writing the last few years. This show was hardcore good for the first half, still way better than some the last half. And at least they finished the show.

This lasted 5 seasons?

I remember the S1 being pretty good but S2 may have introduced too much

I liked it, just accept it as B level science fiction. Like something you watched back then when you were waiting for a new episode of Stargate Atlantis.

This show is like a drawn out skylight movie series. Honestly, I rather rewatch skylight movies.

Sounds like that one Wolves show with that one ginger-woman killer robot. 1st season was badass and then 2nd was crap lol.

Didn't realize so many people disliked this show lol. I just figured it was more of a flew under the radar type of show. I watched it live from day 1 till the end and enjoyed it. Was it cheezy? Yes. But it wasn't some triple A show to begin with.

Personally I really liked the show, even with my complaints. It just took a really hard turn for the worse (still watchable) about halfway through.

Like everyone else says, started off strong but waffles in the mid seasons and didn't stick the landing. Hmmm what other scifi show does that remind me of....

I stopped watching after Season 2. I'm actually not sure I finished Season 2. I remember not really caring what happened to any of the of characters by then.

Started off great, but took a nosedive. I like the lead actor (he played Steve Jobs in Pirates of Silicon Valley).

I remember watching this one beginning to end as ir aired. I enjoyed the first season. It had good production values, fairly solid acting (The always great Will Patton) amd a fun story. The story and budget started to suffer in the middle seasons, but I stuck with it. By the final season, it seemed like the writers all left, because the story was rushed to completion and the ending sucked.

It became clear the showrunners were told to wrap it up starting with the 4th season, as tone story shifted in an unnatural way. The final season was so dumbed down, I watched it only for a conclusion so I didn't feel like I wasted my time with the first 4 seasons.

If you like sci-fi, this is acceptable for $25. Otherwise, skip it.

The show was pretty good. Very good first season, later seasons they tried, but it got too complicated, but still interesting. But they really did try to tell a good story, so I give them credit for that.
