Helix - Season 1

[ImpulsE69]

I don't mind it, but doesn't seem like a show that could "should" last beyond a mini series.

They would have to tackle a new epidemic/conspiracy.

 

[SheHateMe]

Latest episode was stupid....how did the guy who was left out in the snow get saved? Um....I think they have to wear really thick protection for a reason. He wasn't wearing his coat, nor was he wearing shoes....he should have had frostbite.

Maybe he has the same healing ability as Hatake.

 

[rsutoratosu]

i missed everything since.. this weather have me shoveling snow instead of watching.. still can watch online ?

 

[lupi]

The odd thing to me so far is that there still isn't a clear plot since that are keeping so many things "secret".

 

[Skel]

I feel like they stole the story in this show from a bad video game.

 

[pontifex]

wtf? this show is just getting weirder and weirder every episode.

what is up with Constance? lol

 

[Newbian]

what is up with Constance? lol

Still hot and boneable. :biggrin:

They keep letting on that maybe they are some kind of vampire, maybe searching for a cure. The way she was grinding her teeth down with the dremel tool.

Is it me, or are there more commercials and they get more frequent later in the show.

Thinking the same thing because of that and all the other stuff like heightened senses / strength and light sensitivity.

I am guessing the virus is a way to decrease the human population enough so they can take control of the world but they want a cure for the virus also so not all the humans die and use the survivors as slaves.

 

[Insomniator]

So is this show actually any good or is it classic syfy channel embarrassment?

 

[james1701]

That or they want a cure for the vampirism.

It started off on a 'meh', and to has only gotten worse, so yeah, another dud from syfy.

 

[james1701]

The problem is they started off with a strong premise that could have made a smash up 5 day mini series. Right now, its just going in circles being drug out, and high commercial count. It's taking 2 to 3 shows just to get any plot advancement.

 

[lupi]

The "first" episode was pretty good when the combined 2 episode into 90 minutes. Since then the end of each episode makes you think more should have been shown.

 

[DesiPower]

Watched the pilot last night, I liked it, lots of awesomeness. Has the typical SciFi channel feel to it. Will watch more today

 

[lupi]

Well, guess if you were watching for the ryan factor you're going to be disappointed.

 

[Newbian]

Well you can always get a bit head from her.

 

[lupi]

The entire time I was watching that, first thought was they were putting the guy back. Then how pleasant it seemed for where they were, then I was starting to wonder why they were collecting heads....never quite managed to take it to that level.

 

[Elixer]

Since nothing else was on, caught the finale and ...

Spoiler

::sigh:: ... I am just in awe of the bad writing.

And they said Season 2 coming in 2015.

 

[ViRGE]

And they said Season 2 coming in 2015.

Considering the ratings, I'm surprised it was renewed. It didn't outright bomb, but it certainly wasn't a strong performer. Either it's cheap or SyFy is more desperate than usual.

 

[SheHateMe]

The finale was so cheesy. And that song at the very end...cheesy.

Also, what the hell was Peter trying to accomplish when he threw that chick's head into the plane? Julie was handcuffed, there's no way you were going to distract the kid long enough to get her out.

 

[Childs]

The last two episodes were pretty bad. Kinda disappointed Moore's name is associated with this series, considering his previous work.
