Extant watchers?
Anyone else getting into the new CBS-TV series "Extant", starring Hallie Berry, Goran Visjnic, and Camryn Manheim (on Wednesday evenings?).
it's a Sci-Fi story, set in the near future. I won't give away the concept.. but it's beginning to get to the crux of the story.

Re: Extant watchers?
Don't know much about the series, other than what I just scanned on Wiki, but I am thinking a one season show unless it can start pulling a lot more than 5.9 million viewers.

Re: Extant watchers?
My better half likes it, Doctor Who and other similar shows. I couldn't care less. I'll stick with NCIS, American Rifleman Television, Formula 1 and similar.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

I've been pretty into Tyrant since it came on(FX channel). I watched three seasons of Strike Back in 2 weeks recently. Cool Show, the constant seemingly mandatory F word every 10-20 seconds by Scott got old fast though.
Re: Extant watchers?
We also watch Tyrant, it's well done.
I think the best drama series right now is The Bridge.
The Last Ship and also Manhattan are must-see series for us as well.
All these have good plots, great acting.

Longmire is the best series on A & E and they just cancelled it.

The language and adult situations did wear a bit. But they did put together a heck of a firefight scene in Chechnya, a very exciting 3 minutes of TV.ripnbst wrote:I've been pretty into Tyrant since it came on(FX channel).

Re: Extant watchers?
My wife won't watch it because in the past I have expressed some appreciative comments about Halle Berry. Well, maybe more that "some."
I highly recommend "Black Orchid."

She's not ugly but there are scores of women who compete easily with her.

Re: Extant watchers?
I'll finish this season since I started it. It won't break my heart if there's not a second season. The wife likes it. It's just sad when people with absolutely ZERO grasp of science or physics make a science-fiction show. There is only so much disbelief I can suspend. This show hit that limit in the first episode.
Re: Extant watchers?
I know what you mean about suspending disbelief. I could never get over the dhow's premise that they sent someone up to a research station on a one-year solo mission. Nevah happen. Other smaller stuff as well.BigGuy wrote:I'll finish this season since I started it. It won't break my heart if there's not a second season. The wife likes it.

Re: Extant watchers?
This thread ties in with the word usage thread. The term "The Offspring" really grates on me for some reason. Then again, I'm not a syfy guy and the show is just stupid to me.
