Ok, 4 episodes in and the writing isn't improving. I maintain there could be an interesting story in there somewhere, but I don't think it's enough to make me keep pushing on with this one, which is disappointing and I was looking forward to this series.
While there is multiple larger stories at play, they don't really seem to mesh well together and only the one about beacons turning off and shutting down systems is of any interest to me, but the rocks and the companies and whatever that was in episode 4 just were not interesting to me.I get and like what they were trying to do with episode 4 with the entire episode being an origin/flashback, but the writing and screenplay just isn't working for me.
Multiple episodes with characters going from hating a character to liking and loving a character or vice versa within scenes with no organic flow of those emotional states, or being highly suspicious to completely trusting in the space of a scene.
Maybe it's the writing or screenplay or maybe the direction because I feel the actors are doing what they are being told/scripted to say and do and they are doing the best they can with the material they are provided.
Maybe if you're a fan of shows like The Ark it might be your jam, but I don't even think it measures up to sci-fi originals from 2015 like Dark Matter and Killjoys let alone anything more recent like The Expanse/Foundation.
