A review by YouShouldKnow
4.0

Written on January 19, 2020

Another Sci-Fi show purporting humanity to be "hundreds" of years in the future and the only really new tech seems to be spaceships, see-through smartphones and ... nothing. People are still running around with guns, having surgeries with Y2K tech, working manual labor, believing in gods and living in a class-based society.

Where are the statis pods? The quantum computers? The nanotech and AI? The bionic implants and posthumans?

And what would a Sci-Fi show be without some good ol' romance between the main characters? Or a protagonist who was level-headed for half a season and then just loses his marbles to start shooting everything?
Can't do without that!

The fantastic imagery aside, the story isn't gripping and the world is boring. It's been repeated too many times.
