We really enjoyed this series, and we'd like to see SyFy pick it up as a weekly show. There were a couple of good plot twists that took us by surprise, one at the end of the 2nd hour, and one at the very end of the mini-series. The dilemmas faced by the second and third generation of this multi-generational space colonization mission and the way the crew is handling those dilemmas are well developed. The potential for growth and development for both the characters and the plot are excellent. If you liked Battlestar Galactica, Stargate and its spin-offs, Babylon 5 (if you're old enough) and other shows like them, it is worth taking a look at this show. We'd say it's a good choice for space travel fans as well as those who enjoy human psychology, anthropology, and sociology.
