Customer Reviews
Really well done
I really enjoyed this show! I love that the main character is an archeologist who wants to learn more about the home her people left over 150 years prior.
Some reviews say that there were a lot of odd pronunciations of words, but I feel like that was explained by the fact that martians were thought to have weird accents. I love that it ends in a way that doesn’t really need a second season as well. It’s truly enjoyable and a nice change of pace from other stories out there.
When is season 2?
Great story and execution. Brings back story telling by voice, just like on the times of the radio. I certainly am hooked and hope they bring season 2. It brings together many of the topics we debate today, from energy to space exploration to Mars, to AI and neurolinks. I know it was funded to promote renewable energy, and a bit of the dialogue sounded like advertising, but not much. Perhaps next season can be brought just by the pure joy of science-fiction and the story.
So far So good
Loving the plot so far! Can’t wait to see where the story goes from here!
