As of writing this, I have seen 8 episodes. So its not the complete season, but i doubt it will turn around (although i would love to be wrong). If you know ANYTHING about the Halo Series, DO NOT WATCH. This show seems to be allergic to the source material, or anything military sci-fi in general. The storytelling seems so small in scope, amount characters, sets, and events. The actors do what they can with the scripts they are given, so i don't want to harp on their acting too much. I have seen many of these actors in other, better, roles. The music is so bland. With one of the best soundtracks out there, it is a criminal waste. There are a few (very short) action scenes. Seeing the Spartans kick butt would be awesome, if the creators didn't have the Spartans constantly lose/drop their weapons so they can have a fist fight. At the end, the "video game adaptation curse" is real with this show. I feel like it was a lazy attempt, by creators/writers that had no passion for this source material at all.
