Grim, visceral, violent with a sense of increasing dread and all out weirdness, strong performances and darkly comic. It's a bit of a mishmash but very good all the same.

The poignant beginning makes the unfolding story all the more beautiful & heart-breaking.

It is good to see Katee Sackhoff back in space after her ballsy performance in Battlestar Galactica & she tries (and largely succeeds here too) but this show is poor in so many ways. With a ridiculous crew that looks like it was pulled together from the queue of an X Factor audition the ship lurches from pointless cliche to the next. Cheap looking and witless. It's a mess.
