Well, always on the lookout for an interesting series to watch and ran across Salvation.

The first episode was decent and the next evening I chose the second and third episodes over some other choices. The characters are interesting and very easy on the eyes. Sure the plot is a stretch but so what? Not uncommon among sci-fi political dramas. Interesting sub-plots to spice things up a bit, and excellent cinematography. Looking forward to more episodes. As for the critics, those people are not to be trusted. They probably thought that the actors were too good looking. There critiques are based on what kind of mood their overweight dismal selves happen to be in at the time. A lot of the time, anyway. I was thinking 7.5 but will round it up to an 8 to give the critics the finger. Expand

We subscribed to Netflix specifically to watch this series. It's almost a 9 out of 10 IF you go into it with the right expectations. It isn't properly finished (cancelled after season 2), but you can imagine what comes next. What it deliversWe subscribed to Netflix specifically to watch this series. It's almost a 9 out of 10 IF you go into it with the right expectations. It isn't properly finished (cancelled after season 2), but you can imagine what comes next. What it delivers is two seasons of good SF in the traditional Campbellian sense: the smartest and most enterprising members of mankind pitted against each other and a planetary-scale crisis. It's the kind of human ingenuity vs the forces of the cosmos story that is rarely done well nowadays. Of course it's very American, but if you accept it for what it is, it's a journey worth taking.
