    Helix is the stoned college sophomore of television: full of weighty philosophical notions and fun ideas, but no clue how to explain them or execute its plans.

    Just sit back and be surprised. What the Helix! Love that the show doesn't take itself too seriously. It's not supposed to be an awardJust sit back and be surprised. What the Helix! Love that the show doesn't take itself too seriously. It's not supposed to be an award winning, ground breaking, tv landscape shifting show. Its purpose is to entertain. Let your mind slip away and buy into what they are presenting, and it works really well. Full Review »

    Still rocking the mix of action and elevator music. I am enjoying the different feel to the series, which has followed on from the 1st seriesStill rocking the mix of action and elevator music. I am enjoying the different feel to the series, which has followed on from the 1st series but has changed to a move sedate pace.

    The use of now and 30 years in the future allows you to see what will happen but not how it will happen.

    Still solid acting by the cast.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. I'd probably give it a better rating if this was a new show and a different genre. But it isn't. All arcs are completely thrown out of the window and replaced by new ones. The whole plot is thrown away. The choice of location is complete plot armor. The greatest character of the first season is ruined by replacing his arc and letting him die for no good reason. A great disappointment. Full Review »
