Dark Matter
« on: July 10, 2016, 02:12:51 pm »
To quote from their site:
"The crew of a derelict spaceship is awakened from stasis with no memories of who they are or how they got on board. Facing threats at every turn - and the realization that they were wanted criminals pre-amnesia - they have to work together to survive a voyage charged with vengeance, betrayal and hidden secrets."

This makes for some interesting challenges as well as character interaction, to say the least. A nicely done series!
The ship's onboard Android is quite...engaging...in many ways. ;)

Just as a Matter of an update:

The Dark Matter series has certainly been worth watching as both the series / episodes as well as the characters develop. It is Sy-Fy (Sci-Fi) so one has to let their imagination go with the flow of the context and plot.

After all, the characters all awoke not knowing who they were (group amnesia or some such). As a result, they each are now called by a Number instead of a name. After all, a name is just an identifier...a tag or label by which to call something or in this case, someone.

Collectively, they are trying to find out just who they are, why they are where they are (on this spaceship) and how if ever, they will get back to where ever it is that they came from. Quite an interesting and thought provoking series.

Betrayal and trust seem to be an underlying theme intertwined between several characters on board.  The Android seems to be the only one that is to be trusted...or is she?

The cast is as follows, in case you were wondering:

Anthony Lemke ...Three / ... (20 episodes, 2015-2016)
Jodelle Ferland...Five (20 episodes, 2015-2016)
Melissa O'Neil...Two (19 episodes, 2015-2016)
Alex Mallari Jr. ...Four (19 episodes, 2015-2016)
Roger Cross...Six (19 episodes, 2015-2016)
Zoie Palmer...The Android (19 episodes, 2015-2016)
Marc Bendavid...One / ... (15 episodes, 2015-2016)
