Other Space

After barely finishing episode 1 , I was really annoyed by the characters, silly jokes and acting. I kept "watching" other episodes in the background, Until episode 5, it was full of fun moments, interesting ideas and I believe I eventually got used to the characters. From then on I started paying more attention and finished the season. Then I restarted watching it from episode 2. Now show was funnier, I got used to the characters etc and was really enjoying it. It may not be funny from start to end however there are really nice and original ideas, lovable, quirky characters. Be patient and give this show a chance. Especially episode 2 and 5 were really really good.

I watched this without reading any reviews first. I came to IMDb to check out the actor's profiles. After reading some of the negative comments, I felt I should awake out of hibernation to add my take. This show hit the spot for me. This is super light and enjoyable fluff, and should only be taken as such. It is screwball irony. The self-deprecating style of the characters is intentional, and I could see how this would be construed as bad acting. In short, I found it fun and want to see more. I hope they make a few seasons of this show -- slowly becoming more and more ridiculous as they go along. It's refreshing to see an American show that doesn't take itself so seriously.

Enjoyable and rewatch-able. I enjoyed all of the characters very much. Especially Kent (Neil Casey) and Tina (Milana Vayntrub). It is really great to see Joel Hodgson in there. Is he playing his MST3K character as it would be far in the future?

Some of the scenes I just had to keep rewinding they were so good. I liked Ken't video plea to the aliens.

I hope they succeed in convincing somebody else to pick this one up since their creators (Yahoo Screen) failed and took it down with them.

I'm shocked and appalled at the negative reviews of this great new show. Admittedly Episode 1 was the weakest episode, so maybe those reviews are from people who didn't continue watching. I made the same mistake with Game Of Thrones. Thankfully friends forced me to continue watching. I encourage people to do the same with this show and stick with it. It gets better fast.

Overall a clever sci fi parody with great comic performances from the entire cast. And the dialogue is hilarious, Community-esque.

This series is to science fiction what What We Do In The Shadows is to vampire movies. For those of you who are familiar with that movie.

This show is amazing. First off, it's very funny. But it's also surprisingly involving, with odd, interesting characters, some goofy, ingenious episode plots, and a nice tendency to build on previous episodes while still being episodic enough that you could probably watch all the episodes out of order and still enjoy them.

I don't know what to make of the hatred this show has received from a lot of people here. There are a remarkable number of 1-star reviews, and that's weird, because even really bad shows are more likely to get three or four stars from a lot of people. I understand a difference of opinion, but even if you don't find this funny, it is not incompetent, which is virtually the only reason to give something 1 star.

Ignore all the one-star reviews as being nonsensical. You may or may not like it, but if you give it one star you're just being ridiculous.

Also, many reviewers had some variation of "this is just like Red Dwarf except not nearly as funny." So I went and watched the first episode of Red Dwarf, which had really annoying characters and maybe 3 laughs in a half hour. The comparison is also dumb because the series are nothing alike - it would be like someone saying "Mad About You" is a knock-off of "I Love Lucy" simply because they're both about married couples.

Anyway, the naysayers had their way and this died. But you should still watch the first season.
