9/10
Loads of potential. Hope it lasts!

I'm so sick of reading these negative reviews about this show. It's sci- fi, and if you're not a genre fan you shouldn't post about this show. Megan Good has been bashed quite a bit here, but I think she's doing a fine job with what she's been given. The stories so far aren't particularly compelling, but the acting isn't bad. It's taking me a bit to accept Wilmer V. in his role as Blake, but overall the acting is just fine. I love the diversity especially and hope we see more shows like this. I'm white and frankly tired that every relationship and show, especially about the future, features more white people doing the same old thing. Progress, people. Megan Good and Stark Sands have a budding connection. I don't know if that'll eventually translate to romance, but I wouldn't mind if it ends up there as long as they keep the action going. I love seeing couples that don't look like they're in an incestuous relationship because they so closely resemble each--very refreshing. This show definitely has room to improve, but I'm enjoying the futuristic elements and even the procedural aspect. The same old tired procedural mold has been employed over and over and shows like Criminal Minds and Bones stay on for a decade; it's nice to couple that with the sci-fi element. It's just sad that while they pump out more CSIs and NCISs for long past their expiration dates, shows like this will likely be canceled.
