Raised by Wolves

Definitely one of the best SF TV series ever made but certainly not for everyone. Weird story line, great acting, bizarre physical environment, some really terrifying moments. Also it's great to see religion treated as an important plot point in such a creative fashion. So many unanswered questions! What is apparent in every episode is the creativity displayed in even minor physical details. Normally one would see a story like this is a long SF novel which the reader would be justified in asking, "How the heck would they ever fim this while retainaing the main ideas?" Yet, here it is. I doubt that anyone else will pick this production up given the state of the world economies and hate that the cancellation will be viewed as a warning to others not to press the envelope too hard.

FIRST SEASON: 7.9/10

SECOND SEASON : 7,6/10

For the love of Sol, isn't there a TV network to pick it up ? This story must be told and completed.

Aaron Guzikowski has a vision. I believe that, if his story wraps up, this tv show will look better, in retrospect. I mean, right now, it seems kinda flawed/confusing/chaotic, there are a few unanswered questions and some events are difficult to comprehend. However, it seems to me that he knows what he is doing. The story is not so vague as it may seems. Many questions were indeed answered by second season's ending. It would be a shame if RAISED BY WOLVES don't get an ending.

Right now, i don't know if i should recommend it to someone. Any scifi fan will feel frustrated if he spends so many hours and finds out that RBW got cancelled. But this is a very good scifi tv show. There are mysteries to be solved, there are worlds to be discovered. There is vivid imagination, shocking moments, tension, twists and surprises. Well acted too. It's not easy to build such an interesting and bizarre world, sci fi tv shows can become ridiculous if they are not meticulously planned and written.

I can't rate it higher before i watch the end of this journey, there is always a chance that i overestimate this. I hope to find out soon.

Season 1 (4 out of 5 stars).

Good series. It is weird, beautiful, and well sharp direction that keeps it interesting. The plot is good. It dives into science and religious themes. Especially when characters go over faith territory. Great cast ensemble. The music score is good. Cinematography and set locations are impressive. Kind of reminds me of Prometheus. It does have some slow moments. But very good with the story moving.

I really wasn't sure where this series was heading after season 1, so I started season 2 with some trepidation. However, the weirdness and complexities in the storyline really have me hooked. It's been so fun digesting it with other fans. I'm going to watch it all again to pick up on the hidden messages that I've missed along the way. I really hope it gets renewed for season 3 and beyond.

I love this show. It ticks all the boxes for a profound TV program. Perhaps it is even a little ahead of its time. We are not currently on a cycle where AI and androids are seen as benevolent. Rather we are still living under the age of the Terminator and fear of the unknown digital future. Not to say that there are no anti-robot elements to this show, on the contrary, half the show is about believers who shun androids.

The ideas presented are well thought out and very forward thinking. It asks the right questions and has the right amount of science to keep the disbelief adequately suspended. Ridley Scott has always been a master in this regard and this show is no exception.

I would love to give this show a 9 or even 10. I could see myself doing so with closure. But as it stands I cannot give such a high rating to an incomplete product no matter how good the existing material. A true shame.
