Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
carbuff Overall a very good show. Of course it was presented in a pretty sensationalistic manner, but that is what I expected and probably what I would have done myself if I was in charge of making it. The only really stupid thing was presenting the threat of an alien invasion as being a significant one, which I personally find utterly ridiculous, although, no doubt, a few other people are going to disagree. Aliens are one thing I just can't bring myself to seriously consider worrying about for various reasons having to do with pretty basic physics. Similarly, the bit about the miniature black holes was pretty much a waste of time, except that it did help segue into another segment. All things considered, fun and well-put together with very good visuals and competent talking heads.
