Thrilling ride
This isn't a generic crime show and no channel has ever known how to market it. It has the unique blend of well executed action, fascinating narrative, incredible plot and phenomenal acting.
Every season has continued to surprise me and season 3 stepped up massively. Without spoiling - season one and two had the team mostly on the 'number of the week' formula but the stakes get even higher by 3 as other players enter the field. It only climbs from there.
Very layered, very emotional, very much worth your time.

This pseudo-documentary is really hard to define. It utilizes science, and science-fiction to great these different worlds with their our different flora, fauna, animals and landscape. Each episode is a new planet. It was definitely thought provoking.
I'm torn on the VFXs, I felt like they helped, but in some ways, hurt the program. At some points, it was a little shoddy, but at other times, it was great and visually appealing. It was definitely worth watching, and I would be willing to watch another season.
Forgot to mention, I loved Sophie Okonedo as the narrator. I've been a fan of hers since Aeon Flux, and her voice was amazing for this program.

Amazing characterization, a complete fictional world, psychologically satisfying, philosophically intriguing. Moore manages to treat both global and individual conflict quite well. Slightly uneven near the end, where it becomes less deep and more science-fiction-y. Otherwise, it would be a five star series. It deals with its complex subject matter quite competently. I have rated other graphic novels as five star that were not nearly as deeply satisfying, however they handled their admittedly much smaller task slightly better.

Science Fiction is not my genre, so I did not read this one by personal choice. It was assigned for a literature class which meant that as much as I did not want to finish the book, I had to. Overall, for not being my genre it was a better read than I had expected it to be. At times the story seemed confused as to the direction it was going, but I think that was intentional by Heinlein.
