    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 actual scientific or engineering field.

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 was great, season 2 was a shameless, fear-mongering propaganda piece. Don't waste your time.

    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. Sorry, I wanted science, not politics - did not make it past S2E2 and will watch no more.

    Hands down worst show of 2018. Horrid plot and very little to do with Mars exploration. Less about science and engineering challenges and everything to do with activism and political agendas here on earth. It's a cheesy soap opera that happens to take place on Mars, written by people with no knowledge on actual science, physics, or engineering.

    Absolute huge disappointment! Loved the first season, but will likely not watch anymore of the second season. The first season was about science, exploration and overcoming obstacles. Unfortunately, this second season is more about politics, exploitation and corporate greed. A series that was originally about science, exploration, has now become a bitter soap opera. Sorry!

    I couldn't wait for this new season based on the first. Season 1 was very good BUT...……...

    I can't believe Ron Howard had anything to do with this show. It's so far from anything he's ever produced in terms of quality and realism.

    Within 5 minutes watching Season 2, it became painfully obvious the show is not designed or written to offer "Real" scientific or technological information or perspective of how we will get to Mars, sustain ourselves and manage our environment.

    Real science has taken a back seat, a far back seat to this show and has been replaced with cheesy melodramatic situations that try to support opinionated perspectives. The writers didn't even try to be subtle about vilifying the "Evil Corporate Enterprises" that also populate Mars.

    Aside from endless advertising, the show smothers you with political statements and immediately establishes "Good Guy - Bad Guy" scenarios. It's laughable to see the writers have the so-called good guys (scientists) in green space suits and the evil corporate enterprise people in black and dark red space suits. I wouldn't even call this Science Fiction for fear of insulting the Science Fiction community. I'm betting Neil deGrasse is cringing over having some of his interview clips used in this amateurish written show.

    It should be canceled until they get real scientists and engineers as technical advisers instead of people who write "Soap Operas". Audiences that want a melodrama or soap opera aren't going to watch anything about Space and Technology.

    VERY DISSAPOINTING and actually borders on insulting the audience!    … Expand
