10/10This show ended far too soon. It had so much potential, the show masters were just laying the groundwork for what could have been a great science fiction show...and they cancelled it. Syfy ALWAYS cancels their best shows. And, I'm guessing they do it so they can make another Sharknado or two. You have enough diversity of aliens to cause some really wonderfully chaotic alliances and crazy Shakespearean stories.…
