Critic Reviews
Season 1 Review:
It’s an easy watch, it doesn’t make you use your brain an unreasonable amount, and it has a good premise that is easy to follow and care about. It isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel, and it should not aim to. The best part about it is that it’s exactly what someone should expect if they flip to Syfy.

Season 1 Review:
“The Ark,” in its “Star Trek”-meets-“Love Island” manner, is enjoyable and engaging enough, especially if one ignores the overly broad acting, contrived conflicts, abrasive people and constant sniping among the characters. ... It’s a trope that the low-ranking people in a quasi-situation comedy such as “The Ark” are not only more charming but more capable than their superiors, who spend much time stewing over power and seizing authority. But if viewers expected the new world to be much different from the old, this series will disabuse them of that.

Season 1 Review:
Every member of the deep ensemble is introduced, but they never quite feel like more than vessels for nonstop exposition. The tone of “The Ark” never seems right, from the broad humor to a victorious score that often clashes with the bleak circumstances. ... The last of the four episodes sent to critics does settle into a more interesting groove, mostly because the characters finally get a moment to breathe.

Season 1 Review:
It doesn’t help that the show’s cast is equally drab, their performances corny, broad, and altogether unconvincing. ... What’s missing is compelling action, serviceable CGI, and a sense of this all taking place within a grander context. ... There’s nothing under the hood of The Ark except a lot of ho-hum parts borrowed from better voyage-into-the-beyond sagas.
