Debris

I like this show, which means it probably won't last. I like the X-Files type vibe.

Love the Fringelike show. But the music is just too much. Too loud and too distracting. Makes it hard to watch and concentrate.

This show seems to have received some pretty low star ratings on here, and I'm really not sure why. Perhaps in this age of social media and smart phones, people just haven't got the patience to wait for the story to evolve, and if it's not flashing and banging at them they lose interest. Despite other opinions on here, I thought the two leads were good, with interesting back stories and a good chemistry. The whole premise of the show if really intriguing, pieces of a wrecked alien craft of unknown origin falling to earth over a long period of time. Each piece has different qualities and is widely sought after on the black market. The series starts 3 years after the initial pieces of Debris fell to earth, and a joint US and UK task force are tracking down any pieces they can find. Not a spoiler, as this is pretty much gone over in the opening titles. There were some really cool scenes, with peopl affected by the debris, and yes, an undeniable X-Files feel to it, but than can only be a good thing in my book.

Honestly, I struggled to make it through the pilot episode. The TWO leads have got to be the least charismatic actors I've ever seen cast in a series. They are the equivalent of dry toast. The overall story itself may have merit eventually but it comes across as a very shallow attempt to be the next X-Files. A costly swing and a miss here without question.

This thing fails on every level.

In world of police dramas, medical dramas and emergency dramas we finally have another sci fi that looks promising. Though not perfect I have hope for this one. Its kind of reminding me of Fringe and X Files. I hope it can be just as good. Can't wait to see more.
