Kinder, Gentler Sci-fi
This series is rated far too low!
Warning: it doesn't have a lot of space war CGI, nor, apparently, a high budget for that type of thing. BUT -- in tone, to me, it is reminiscent of Firefly and other early SciFi series. It's based not in fighting but in human relationships.
Moonhaven is about a lunar society of happy hippies, guided by a brilliant AI called "IO". For three generations they have developed a fair and loving culture, sensitive to human emotions and their expression.
Meanwhile, back on Earth, the population has managed to destroy the planet almost totally through famine and war.
Now, as the series begins, Mooners, as long ago agreed upon, will travel to Earth in an attempt to heal its culture. And vested interests on both planets are dead set against that happening.
This show is well worth your time; give it a shot!
