Didn't find this show listed in a search here. Anyone watch/watching this? I don't normally watch any shows but this one caught my eye to watch with the wife. Only episode 1 into it and there is enough there to keep going. Has some X-files flavor, but like what Mr. Pibb is to Dr. Pepper. Wife enjoyed it enough to want to keep watching.

I watched a bit. Very Sci-Fi Channel vibe. Low budget, cheesy monsters. And it seems to be trying way to hard to hit every single social issue/minority inclusion opportunity it can - all at once.

Finished this season. Started fine, but then just rushed through trying to hit as much stuff as possible. I figure they got word it was not going to be renewed and to wrap everything up at once. Had a bit of low budget charm to it at first then the writing flew apart for the last 4 episodes. Ah well... X-files is still the high water mark.

The way the kids turned on the parents was just, I dunno. Bullshit. They could have made this into a fighting the man story, with "monsters" banding together with hoomans that know the truth about Presidio, but they couldn't pull that together either. Disappointed, but glad I gave it a chance.

Yeah, definitely agreed about that. I could accept it as rebellious teens finding out they are adopted by the 'enemy,' but yeah... still bullshit.
