Night Sky

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.

Impatient viewers it's pretty much what's wrong with the world today people are way way too impatient shows not great yes it's a little slow great acting I'll give it a 7 stop being impatient !! Watch the damn thing before you rate it.

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.

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.

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.
