    Sometimes I wish I never started it

    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.

    Still can't believe it's cancelled

    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.

    Great Sci-fi!

    All I can say about Raised by Wolves is Wow...what an awesome show! It really is one of the better new sci-fi shows to come out in a long time. The acting, writing, directing, cinematography, etc., etc. are all amazing! Ridley Scott is the executive producer with Travis Fimmel as the lead, if that right there doesn't make you want to see this then I don't know what will? I can't wait until Season 2!

    Why can't they conclude a decent plot?

    Raised by Wolves has interesting plot. Second season has good story but lot of stuff left for next season in the last episode. Now we are told that the show has been cancelled.

    The show runners have no respect for the audience who watch a season, wait for 1-2 years for next season and when they are really into the plot someone pulls off the plug. It is really awkward and unworthy for a network.

    Cursed HBO for cancelling the show

    This is the only good show HBO max made and they have cancelled it after 2 seasons.

    Overall a good sci fi to watch which is beyond imagination. Needs to he completed this series.
