Its first impression is that it's sort of Star Trek parody-thing, it quickly unfolds into its own unique space-adventure-drama.
Fantastic originality and mood. Recommended, rapidly approaching highly recommended.
Verdict: While it's good, it's not great, at least not for me. I got bored in the first couple of episodes of season two. Definitely recommended for anyone who enjoyed the first several episodes.
Like other shows these days, I became interested in this purely because "those people" "hate" it.

The son of a billionaire family survives them in a plane crash in the Himalayas, and returns after being raised by monks only to find their ancient enemies throughout his old home and business. Basically Marvel's Batman.
At first I was going to ignore this series, because the Iron Fist trailer made it look like utter trash, but the YUR A WHITE MALE "mainstream liberal media" response made me interested.
Even though the superhero genre is generally tiring, this show is well worth watching, and its response is a beautiful example of fake news manufactured by "social" "justice".
season five is planned

Tensions between the three factions in our solar system rise with an known party's military science efforts.
Describing this one is pretty damned hard. Quite a good series, although the lead actor is just a little too young to be properly-believable. They all are, but I guess that was the target market.
Inspired by The Expanse - (2011+ books), by "James S. A. Corey"

A spy does spy stuff, drinks, hits on women and makes a jackass of himself while being surprisingly competent.
A fun, light, series which has a whole lot of laugh-out-loud moments.
Though I've seen it all, I didn't begin taking notes until later on.

A guy goes mad and has visions, except they're real people.
Decent, with occasional awesomeness between cringeworthy moments of "let's see if we can put this shit in a show".

Guild bounty hunters hunt bounties and stuff.
I like it so far.
I am reminded of Firefly - (2002 show).
I stopped taking notes, but I do note that there were a number of occurrences of the Wilhelm scream.
