Didn't like it again last night. Its like they haven't even bothered to try and make it interesting and just used a generic plot from the scifi filing cabinet.

If you just want an alien vs human gore fest then it probably isn't the right programme for you

It is a drama set in the future, not an all action shoot em up and never pretended to be anything else, not from the trailers or write up. I shal give it a chance and see what develops.
Doesn't mean that i won't be watching the Chronicles of Riddick or Aliens SE later on tonight

It's only on for 6 episodes. Just as it (may) get good, it'll be over.
Think they were given a budget to make it. Some bright spark decided to hire that actor out of Ugly Betty and blew the budget, that only left them with £10.37 to make the 6 part series.

Outcasts seems like a very loose rehash and rejiggle of Earth2.

and earth2 a rejiggle of Forbidden Planet or bits of other sci-fi cut together. Hardly anything is new, take Avatar - the Last of the Mohicans set on another planet - great film though!
The plot is still evolving which is good as i would rather that be the case than it all be spelled out in the first 20 minutes.
Then again what do i know, I like Blakes7 Really, i do!

That was supposed to be being remade you know. I remember bits of it.
If you think about it though, although I'll watch it again you don't have to have lots of wizzy shooty bang things to make a space film interesting - Moon for example was a great film and could have been equally good on a shoestring budget.
Solaris on the other hand was in space with George Clooney and I watched it once and threw the DVD in the bin in disgust.
Heres another one - V
Has it been given a 2nd series or has it been canned?
