I too am an avid sci-fi fan and had high hopes for this show. Supposedly, it was supposed to be like a TV-series version of Independence Day. Well, not so much. The plot seemed interesting enough, in the beginning, although the story started losing its flavor for me after about episode 3. Nonetheless, I stuck with it and finished watching the entire season, in hopes that it would improve. This happened, only marginally in the last 2 episodes of the season. After reflecting on the time I invested in viewing, I am somewhat disappointed and almost wish I could get that time back. Regardless, it filled a void for a short time. Although currently aired on TNT and unfamiliar with their goals, I don't see this show gaining much traction with audiences or advertisers. Here's hoping for something much more engaging on the horizon.
