Pretty good
I don't agree at all with all the critics of other reviewers: it's a very decent show, not as "sciency" as you would expect; there are lots of politics involved but the characters make sense, are pretty intelligent and the actors are quite convincing in carrying the tension and double-play of the multiple agencies and various protagonists.
It's well paced, interesting at every episode and not at all a frenzy of stupid mathy-jargon thrown at you like scorpion, which is utter bullsh*t for sure.
As I said, it's well written and seems to be going somewhere fast, which is kind of hard to find in a show nowadays so be content and stop complaining when something good comes your way! :D

Season 1 was lots of fun but 2nd season falls apart
The first season was borderline great despite a few cliches here and there but the second season tries to do way too much all at once. The result is a frustrating, uninteresting follow up to a promising first season. The constant flip flops, twists, and desperate character development left me wishing the asteroid would hit and put it all to an end.
Considering not so many Sci-fi series out there this is one of a good show.
First thing, this show is never about the earth and the asteroid. It's about how the two powerful nation US & Russia deals an extinction level of event on each other. Although half of the show are almost predictable, it still has many plot twist. With not so many good Sci-fi series out there, I think this show deliver an interesting Sci-fi drama.
Personal thought, I don't know why so claimed 'smartass' people gave bad review on almost every sci-fi TV? There are many good sci-fi shows canceled because of bad review from those 'smartass' people. I mean why don't we just enjoy the show and give some appreciation.

It's Sci-Fi, not the best, not the worst, maybe in the middle, but I love it
The brutal truth: they have the budget, they have good actors, they don't have the right hooks nor the accurate science. But it's all about relationships and the spinning of chaos in the minds of the characters, the players, at the end of the world. It's about a counter-clock to salvation. Give it a try, maybe they find salvation
Well acted, interesting story
I like the first 4 episodes, and am looking forward to watching the rest. Not an action packed sci fi show, but more a thinking person's sci fi. I hope it continues with the good characters, well written episodes, and interesting plot. The special effects are good, and not overdone. Some sci fi shows are just CGI mess-fests where they try to throw as much CGI stuff as possible. Not this show. Witty, clever, and thoughtful. Hope it lasts.
