User Reviews

Very sad - not the ending I wanted but it was good enough

I really enjoyed the series, however it became evident half way through season 2 that the writers had less to play with and this resulted in the eventual ending of the show in the 3 rd season. In the 3rd season writers were grasping at straws trying different things not the best idea. However they were able to end it off nicely. I found the ending to be very sad very sudden, and although there was so many questions that had gone unanswered like " What about the aliens stuck under Kavars rule? " The end was simple and the whole idea of ending the series with the journal that had started it was brilliant. I was very moved by this show, the cast was brilliant and the acting was good. The last episode is moving on all accounts.
