This is a show that went under the radar. Over the course of the show you'll get to know how the elders got their power, and a struggle of the children to grow up with such famous parents and having to live up to their standards. Also the struggle between the elders of dealing with The Code in present day is a nice touch.

The change in frameratio between present and the old days makes it also great to distinguish between them.

I can't remember Netflix doing much promotion on this show, which might be the reason why it didn't get that many viewers. It's much better as a lit of the Marvel series.

It is a big shame they didn't greenlit a second season, but even though it sets up a second series, it still wraps up most of the storylines.

Having read a lot of the reviews here, I think I've seen a different show as many people who've written a bad review.

Yes, it's not the most perfect show, but for me it's up there with 'The Expanse'. The only real annoying character is Tula, but the rest is just like characters from many other decent shows.

It has all the things a sci-fi fan wants, it got the special effects, which are pretty solid for a show on a low budget, it got a decent story, not really worse then a regular Star Trek episode (which, if you are really honest, aren't great, especially the TOS episodes).

Could it have been better? Yes ofcourse it could have, but most shows could have been much better. Last night I saw the first season of Stranger Things for the first time, and I really wonder what people find so good about it, as it's far from original, VERY FAR.

Yes this show has some stupid writing some times, but many shows do, even a great show like 'The Expanse' is far from perfect.

As I started the review, I really wondered what show these people of the bad reviews have been watching as it certainly wasn't this show. This show is a decent show, and I now think it's sad there never was a second season, but luckily it doesn't really end on a big cliffhanger, the first season has its story pretty much wrapped up, but sets up some new storylines for a second season.

So, if you're a real sci-fi fan and like shows like 'The Expanse', give this show a chance. And please just ignore the awful Tula character, if only they shot her in the first episode.

I whished I liked it, but it was just utter trash. The writing was just awful, nothing really exciting or spy stuff. When there was action it was just OK. But mostly it just boring talk, like watching a bad Woody Allen movie. Casting was also not great, both the main characters don't really have a spark onscreen. Glover might be a great actor in other things, but he wasn't in this, which he mostly created, written and produced. Even the last episode was a miss in regard to writing and wasn't really believable if you've actually paid attention during the previous 7 episodes. Don't need another season or they really need to up the spy stuff instead of being another indie talky movie. Waste of a lot of money.
