Yeah, their marketing sucks. For All Mankind is maybe the greatest sci-fi show ever, and hardly anyone knows it exists.

About two episodes into "Unlocked" on Netflix.  Enjoyable so far, but struggling with just how much seems scripted. There's also a deputy who not saying she's hot, at all, but seems far too attractive to be working in men's jail with people up on murder charges.

Also has a tweaker featured fairly prominently who appears to have OD'd and died just recently.

It's worth the effort if you like sci-fi.

I don't know if I've ever seen a sci-fi series that I didn't at least mildly enjoy. Huge sci-fi fan overall.

I’m going to reread the book and then watch. I’ve heard the show is good.

Maybe one of the strongest starts to a series. It drops off, but still very, very good. Then the Spacey stuff came out and we got robbed of a true ending.

 The Sci-Fi show? If so yes, too bad it was cut short to 2 seasons

It just started. They’ve already announced it’s only two seasons?

There was apparently a show with the same name that aired on SyFy circa 2015.

Sorry, no, there was a space SciFi show back in 2015 that was on CW  called Dark Matter, really good, only 3 seasons  


It’s free streaming on CW app or Freevee  worth a watch if you like space scifi  


Different show

Is that the one where the crew all wakes from stasis and doesn't even remember their own names?  I liked it.  Definitely would have watched more seasons, but at least it sort of had an ending.

Just finished Severance. Fucking stressful finale. Glad season 2 was just announced.
