Night Sky

Look, this is/was a fantastic science fiction series. It had everything. It was original, and different. Without a second season there is no point in even watching the first season.

The discovery of the anomaly, and the character development is a very slow process. By the time the season ends many plots and subplots are revealed. Including new characters. But they are left completely wide open and you really get nothing out of the first season.

I am amazed how garbage zombie series just keep spawning new spin offs. Or garbage alien invasion rehash series keep popping up. But with Night Sky we finally got a completely original, sophisticated science fiction series and it gets canned first season without closure.

Anything with J K Simmons in it is worth a look, the show is not your normal action packed sci fi series, it goes deeply into characters and has long periods of dialogue.

It strays at times into boring and can be frustrating but overall is a good series, very well acted, the 'thinking' persons sci fi.

Firstly, not all your viewers are silly impatient teenagers. There are a huge amount of us looking for a slower burn and more relatable characters, and this had that. Quality acting from Spacek and Simmonds. Yes, there were times when I fast-forwarded, I do understand the wish for this to speed up sometimes (even at my age) and perhaps given time, they'd have gotten the feedback to understand how to tweak it but it would have been worthwhile. Just a touch of humour is a must despite a serious message - it's worked for so many lasting series. Amazon can afford some more patience, and definitely needs, like so many others to listen to what viewers are saying, not just look at meaningless startup figures. Many of us are frustrated with the great series we've loved then got cancelled. This was a great premise and plot. What a shame.

Just finished watching the final episode of series 1 to find that Amazon have dropped this little gem of a program. Really disappointed as the characters were great and with an original storyline this was one of the best TV series I've seen for some time.

There's so many ways this series could evolve, just feel it didn't get the exposure it deserved for people to see it. I only came across it accidentally and took a chance. So glad I did.

I hope Amazon change there mind at some point, there's not enough if these type of sci-fi programs out there.

If you're looking for something a little different and are happy to sit back and enjoy a good story then please give this series a chance.

Amazon had a hit here but it needed better advertising. The cast was superior to many other shows. Also the story line needed more time to develop.

Oh! Well guess I need to buy the book from Barnes and Nobel not Amazon.
