Review of Dark Matter

Dark Matter (2015–2017)
The "new" Firefly
21 July 2015
We've been moaning about Firefly being shut down and the gap it left behind for ages and finally a worthy show comes along and fills that gap and it's pretty similar as well which in my view does not hurt at all.

I can not understand why people complain about Dark Matter, compared to previous success-series like Firefly, Babylon 5 and even Farscape to name a few. Remember the first episodes of those when we first saw them? Took a while to digest and then they grew on us, immensely. A show some times need a full season to mature and in my honest opinion Dark Matter deserve a full season and a second to show what it can be capable of.

Where Firefly used three hot chicks to draw people in at the beginning, imho, Dark Matter does not even need this. A lot of potential, and my wish for Santa this year is to let this show at least get a second season before any decision is made about its future. Pretty please, with sugar on top.

Actors, writers, directors and staff need time to mature with the show.

EDIT: Season one is over and what a season it was. I am so happy to see that season 2 is already cleared for next year. Awesome show, a big thanks to those everyone involved in making it!
