Only 2 episodes in but unlikely to go back for more.
Started out interesting, debris from the sky, destroys a bird feeder, kills a calf, breaks a window, causes a gas explosion.
Spies, Aliens, kids investigating but.... Poor acting and a very slow paced story hold back what could be a good "famous five/secret seven" style show, and from what I've read season 2 moves away from following the kids story's.
May get better later on as it did make it to 3 seasons but with so many other good shows to watch, I'll probably not make more time for this one.
Over all if you are looking for a safe family series give it a go, there will be some fun to be had.
Note: Show has a Mormon station background so there is a little extended preachyness but not to Kirk Cameron levels, so I didn't think it too over doing it - but you can make your own decisions on that.
wow, this show surprised me with its depth and lovely art - it's a must watch.
It copied to many of the jokes from the movie,
Making it not as funny as it could/should have been.
Probably could have found its feet if it got picked up for a season.
One pilot episode in and this was better than I expected.
Expect I will continue to like this one.
Overall,
I found the story and the acting better than the original series.
Show can be a bit slow moving but ultimately quite a watchable Aussie small town drama with an interesting twist.
A plant that brings back the ingestors youth and what the people in a small town might do, with that ability.
Don't expect major country wide conspiracies or large government organisations being involved, no country or even town hopping, This is a small town drama at heart.
With only 6 episodes in session 1 it didn't outstay it welcome. Season 2 is coming soon we well have to wait and see if it hold up.
And the de-aging was done well merging one actor into another quite seamlessly the times it's shown on-screen.
Good series, it got a full official release in Australia on streaming site Stan. At first it just ok but The last half is the better half. Surprised to hear that it didn't get a wider release initially. Good dose of social commentary. And dark humor.
Season 1 is quite good, season two feels a bit slow for a few episodes but stick around as the last half of the season is great. Can't wait for season 3.
Binged it all in one sitting as it only just came out on Netflix in Australia.
Tho... yes, it's completed, it got no tomorrow,
I still felt the show completed what it set out to do.
A second season could have been great but it could have also been too much and ruined it.
It's listed as concluded not cancelled and that it's the best way to see the story, if you haven't seen it go binge it.
A great SciFi show,
Fun varied characters, Good story.
If you like scifi at all give the show a watch.
Yet another casualty to the SyFy Cancellation machine.
Another neat piece of SciFi left with cliffhangers and no satisfying ending.
