Battlestar Galactica (1978)
Sci-Fi Made Simple
Note:- 8/10 is considering it was 1978. Today, more like a 7.
Fast paced sci-fi drama with tongue in cheek character typing and scripting that plays out beautifully well in a serious manner. In your face religious references and future technology produce a cunning backdrop and environment.
Family friendly with good moments for laughing.
Even the wife started watching it after she got over that it was sci fi (she hates sci-fi - even Star Wars).
If someone was to say that this is supposed to be competition for the Target Audience of Star Trek I would disagree. This series has more appeal than what I've seen of Star Trek (old and new).
Note:- To those who want to watch BsG, this 1978 series is the most common and best - with the spin offs being very poor in many ways (except for the 2004 're-imagined' seasons which are actually user rated into the top 100 TV shows on IMDb).
Nazi Mega Weapons (2013)
Both Seasons Are Fantastic
Well made.
Interestingly it appears the series was commissioned by a US Company but produced in by a UK crew (due to the nature of WWII being partly in Europe I imagine).
Consequently, this TV show actually has 2 names and 2 narrations.
In America I believe it is called Nazi Mega Weapons with a American narration.
In UK I believe it is called Nazi Mega Structures with a British narration.
It's nice to have a choice of narration.
The series aired on Channel 4 in the UK.
The Man in the High Castle (2015)
Good To Bad In 1 Season (Remember Lost?)
Fascinated by History Fascinated by Political Movements Fascinated by Dystopia Fascinated by Alternate History Fascinated by Sci-Fi
All these themes are in the TV show and I am so obsessed about these themes, yet this isn't enough to save it from a horrible plot.
Before the end of the 3rd episode I thought that this show was going to be another take on Lost (I still watched the whole season).
As I continued watching it turns out my thoughts were true.
The acting is quite bad too in my opinion.
Why do I say this is like Lost?
Potentially brilliant story, starts off well but becomes ridiculous.
