Just started the box set of the sci fi show "dark matter" - it having got rather good reviews. First episode looked superb, started well and not bad acting or script, albeir characters slightly corny - a gung ho soldier, ninja assasin, hot female lead, sensitive guy and so on, then a big reveal at the end - ooo, looking promising. 2nd episode the characters make a bit more sense, hints of things to come whilst it negotiates a planet of the week formula. I'm rather liking it so far even if it's looking to be adventure sci fi rather than the Big Questions of leadership and what it means to be human of the true greats like Battlestar, or the real sense of wonder of Bab 5 or Farscape (still my favourite). Still, very promising and definitely want to see what happens
