Scott D. Pierce: “One of the great mysteries of television is why a channel devoted to science fiction has found it all but impossible to come up with a good series set in outer space.”

Richard Fleeshman as Lt. James Brice and Christie Burke as Lt. Sharon Garnet on "The Ark."One of the great mysteries of television is why a channel devoted to science fiction has found it all but impossible to come up with a good series set in outer space. The Syfy Channel’s almost-unbroken string of failure continues with “The Ark.”

“The Ark” is entirely set in outer space, but executive producer Dean Devlin insisted it’s not an outer-space series. The biggest surprise in “The Ark” is how cheap it looks. Some of the external views of the ship look pretty cool, but others — including anything that features crew members in zero gravity — look silly. Granted, I was watching this after watching Season 3 episodes of “Star Trek: Picard,” which has space scenes that will blow your mind, but “The Ark” is nowhere near being in that league, either.

Farscape, Battlestar Galactica, and The Expanse were all 'really good outer-space shows'...

BRB, this reminded me to rewatch Killjoys
