This show is made and broadcast by America's Syfy channel, but as far as most of the world is concerned, including the UK, this show is broadcast exclusively on Netflix.
Most of Syfy's material tends to be pretty bog standard and one dimensional in my opinion, but not this show. It's multi-layered and has a much darker tone than most of Syfy's family friendly fare.
This show is harder to get into than most, but stick with it. I think it's a good story of rival factions fighting it out and it's good to know that in the future that greed, lies and power are still the main motivators for some. Nothing changes, then... The show also deviates from the usual American formula of tv shows which insist that all characters must be warm and fuzzy with each other, and be like a family, with central characters who you really love. There isn't much warmth and fuzziness here and I can't say that I really warm to any of the show's characters, but they are interesting. This show is a bit like Red Dwarf minus the comedy.
Season 3 has already started on America's Syfy channel and will be available on Netflix soon in the UK. Season 1 and 2 are already available on Netflix.
I rate everything I've seen so far as around 8/10.
