    The Future Looks Dim

    I thought the film Year Million was absolutely one of the best documentaries I've seen in awhile. The Dyson Sphere theory is great. Scientists have already identified a G-type star far from our reach that fluctuates in and out of light at different rates of speed. For me, that's proof enough that there is life out there. Once we harness the power of our nearest star, we will move onto distant ones because ultimately power is what it takes to keep things in motion.... if I lived in the future my main focus would be space exploration I would travel to the furthest reaches of the galaxy searching for life. It would be the greatest adventure mankind has ever taken...

    Fascinating possibilities.

    Amazing Docu-fiction; great job for the narration by Laurence Fishburne. Surprising that there wasn't a second season; really hope they make it happen. This is a very interesting vision of the future. They should remaster this season, and put it out again on streaming; it would be a big hit, especially now.

    Extremely interesting but with few cons.

    Really interesting story, i learned quite a bit of possibilities of the future. Lady in the red glasses (comedian of some sort i guess) incredibly annoying. Other than that pretty good show!

    in response to this...

    "Sci-fi writers make their money thinking about the future and hypothesizing about how future existence might look if technologies and trends were carried to their logical conclusions."

    If that estimation is even half- accurate than the show itself must be way worse than I thought.

    Even the most rudimentary understanding of the nature of the social and political animal the human being is, and even the most basic social and/or political sciences literacy stipulate that this rather imbecilic habit of extrapolating today's tendencies, or at least those among them deemed as the most evident and most viral, into the distant future is undoubtedly amongst the most dull and irresponsible prognosis methods.
