    I just finished watching it on Netflix. I was wondering what everyone else thought of it? I think I liked the last 5 seconds more than the other 6 hours, so I was looking forward to a sequel but I think its been canned already.

    Yeah, it had potential and I liked most of the cast.

    I really dug it. Was a mashup of Battlestar Galactica meets Mad Men meets The Village.

    I did think the captain lacked a bit of pure charisma.

    Yeah, but I guess he had enough to woo Tricia Helfer (RAWR!!).

    Just realize Brian Van Holt was in Blackhawk Down.

    It's been out for a while, and only recently made it to Netflix I believe.

    Yeah, they do sci-fi on SyFy. Been watching Dark Matter.

    I was disappointed in the reveal as well. I had hoped it was true. It would have made the story all the more intriguing initially. That said, I enjoyed it. Particularly the conclusion. Though for the life of me, I don't know what the odds of the guys survival are.

    I've found it pretty underwhelming so far. Only seen the first two episodes in the UK but I was expecting more than an insipid 'magnificent seven' in space series.

    Considering it's only six episodes that doesn't bode well.

    Do you think Gault was actually on Proxima? I wonder where the TC(?) guy who was after Christa went.
