Nightflyers, Season 1

The show has a few good ideas but many bad ideas as well. Watching it is like trying to ignore the bad so that u can breath in the good. Casting is an issue. Also writers can’t seem to figure out if the show is a horror flick (aka shining) or proper sy fi explorer (aka trek) or sy fi horror (aka aliens)...or haunted house... what is going on here and what is the point? From a plot perspective, who in their right mind would send this crew and this ‘ship’, with its additional borderline super natural cargo to engage with a foreign, presumably sentient, visitor into our solar system? It boggles the mind... Also - Pls, pls turn off the memory machine. It’s bad for u. Captain...or someone...anyone...perhaps a junior member of the crew looking for quick promotion...just disable it. The characters could be slightly cleverer... 3 stars bc I like the genre and would like to encourage a rethink. There is at core possibly something here. I am actually not sure what. Recommend - Rethink, refocus, redeploy.

If you are going to make a scifi show... learn high school physics first. Acceleration is not handled correctly in the show. Several other dumb things in the first episode like, everyone strapped into chairs on the bridge so they are safe from acceleration, but the emergency controls are out of reach so you have to unstrap and fly around smashing into things to get control back. And you can't disconnect from a direct interface with a computer without dying... I won't watch another episode.

So far it's good. Update: I have seen up to eps. 6 and I really like it so far. (I could do without few the se# scenes.) I love the sci-fi in this one. I don't get the bad reviews must be fans of the new Doctor who season. I have been waiting for a really good sci-fi show since the stop making Dark Matter and I've found it. I just hope this has a lot of seasons. Sci-fi check list. Crazy killer AI Alien life Outer space L1- telepath super powerful VR world Blood and Gore Cults And that is just in the first 6th eps. who knows what more will come.

Terrible! Sorry I wasted my time.

I really wanted to like this show. But it’s just awful.

This show starts out slowly but builds up to an intriguing climax! Well worth watching if you have time to spare. If this show gets a season 2 then I will be watching! Nice work SYFY!

I think the hype behind this show was too much. It's NOT Game of Thrones! It is entertaining though! Comparisons to Event Horizon and Sunshine are fair but I wish it were scarier...

It does start off odd but After the first few episodes it really kicks off. I really enjoy this show! Great job!

Best I can describe would be The Expanse + 2001 Space Odyssey + Event Horizon. Could the show be better in certain ways, sure. But all-in-all, it's a solid Sci Fi show. I've found every episode to be decent and it keeps me watching, wanting to know what happens next and how the plot develops. There's some boo hoo'ers out there, but if you're a Sci FI fan, like space stuff, and aren't super critical, give it a shot, you may find it worth watching.

First episode of "The Expanse" I was captured but I could not get past the first 20 minutes of this dreg....
