I'm hooked. On episode 4. I also need to see Battlestar Galactica. Looks like syfy is trying to get a better reputation. I admittedly didn't wanna watch because it was on syfy. Solid actors

They are finally realizing that is better to buy the rights to established sci-fi novels than to rely on Hollywood to come up with something original.

Killjoys is pretty original.

Most of SyFy's newest stuff is Canadian anyway from Showcase (Lost Girl, Van Helsing, Sanctuary, etc.)

I really didn't like season 1, 75% set up with little payoff, but season 2 has been very good.

Incorporated is another well done new scifi series.

Starts strong, goes downhill real fast after the first season.

The second half of season one is much stronger, fyi.

That's too bad. It did look like it'd be expensive to produce so I guess I'm not surprised.

Season 2 of the expanse is great.

My only real gripe with the show is steven strait. I think holden could be pretty interesting, but strait is a very one-note actor. Maybe its the material, dunno.

Tbe Expanse is fantastic, and Season 2 really hits its stride, imo.

There are just some gorgeous visuals (the blood snowflakes on Ganymede for example), hopefully not too spoilery.

For the person saying only S1 of BG was good... really? Are you referring to the long running BG from 2004? If so, I totally disagree. That show is solid throughout up until the last seaon, imo.

That was a solid season ender for season 2. I really hated bobbie when she was first introduced but she got a lot better the second half of this season.

I'm not caught up with the show but it's good. I've read the books and can say there is definitely material for several more great seasons.

On the episode where the martian marines meet some UN people on the moon. Somewhere around Season 2 episode 6. I didn't wanna spoil anything. Big surprise at the end. I'm freaking loving this show.

Finally finished the season, and the finale was great. Next season will be epic.

Some really great effects work in the finale. Didnt feel that much of great ep to end on, but considering what storylines they wrapped up midseason, itd be hard to top.
