The show's aliens were very cool, the characters likeable and credible, the plots a bit monotonous (should have been a 3-parter), and the premise a bit silly. Let's start with the premise: Colonists land on the mainland of an alien planet (earth 2) to reach an ocean. For a viewer, it's a bit pointless that they didn't just land near the ocean. And even if they didn't, can we just fast forward to that point ? Second, regarding the plots, I wish they had involved more interesting discoveries. Copy some odd stories from the shows 'Twilight Zone' or 'Outer Limits.' I would have wanted an odd Earth 2 where absolutely nothing makes sense. Finally, the aliens were top notch: The rhino-like Grendlers. And very scary: A humanoid race that shoots out of the earth, at will. If the whole show was cut into 3 or 4 hours, I would rate it better.
