Best series ever. So realistic and accurate. Everyone should watch it! Season 2 is even more amazing. Made me cry. Highly recommend!

We're only one episode in, but I can tell I'm not going to like this season as much as the extraordinary first season. And it's not really the show's fault. It's apparently inevitable that commerce and the private sector will always play a part in the pioneering story. It's a bummer.We're only one episode in, but I can tell I'm not going to like this season as much as the extraordinary first season. And it's not really the show's fault. It's apparently inevitable that commerce and the private sector will always play a part in the pioneering story. It's a bummer. Great cast and great visuals however. I like the comparison to the arctic oil drillers. Go Shlumberger!… Expand

After enjoying season 1, season 2 has been a disappointment. As some of the previous reviewers have posted, the show is no longer about the science of sustaining colonies on Mars but more about how politics and corporations are evil. The character development is almost nonexistent thisAfter enjoying season 1, season 2 has been a disappointment. As some of the previous reviewers have posted, the show is no longer about the science of sustaining colonies on Mars but more about how politics and corporations are evil. The character development is almost nonexistent this season. Having just watched S2 E4 the fact that people kill other people but their motives were good seems to be OK. The worst part of this episode was mostly about current day Siberia.… Expand

Season 1 was interesting and fun to watch how humans could overcome the challenges of establishing a foothold on Mars. Unfortunately the second season turned into a political rant about climate change, corporate greed, activism, Greenpeace, and other leftist talking points.

Horrible cringy show. FAR from realistic or based on any actual science. Poorly contrived problems and really bad decisions made just to add "drama" to the plot. Star Wars is more believable than this trash. This show brought to you by Greenpeace and no one with any studies in actualHorrible cringy show. FAR from realistic or based on any actual science. Poorly contrived problems and really bad decisions made just to add "drama" to the plot. Star Wars is more believable than this trash. This show brought to you by Greenpeace and no one with any studies in actual scientific or engineering field. They selectively get quotes from some famous people to support their anti-corporation narrative. And why do they even interview journalist and activists?? Those people are out of place and got more screen time than most of the actual scientist and engineers! It's also like the writers have never watched any sci-fi in their life!… Expand

Man, what a hot mess. Nat Geo partnered with Greenpeace to create a "save the world" screed. I can't think of an organization with less credibility they could have hooked up with. Worse, they used creative editing to make it appear that NASA and Greenpeace are in cahoots too. Season 1 wasMan, what a hot mess.
