Missions is really the first sci-fi TV series in France, I mean a real one worth to watch ! I was surprised at first, not used to this kind of shows in France and i discovered something really good. In France, we do not have the same budget as Americains to do sci-fi , so, a choice has been made, not go on the path of massive special effects and choose to be good on mythology and be character driven. Actually, it works and you are totally hook in the show ready to go to Mars !
