They have no memories, so they give themselves numerical designations. They find an android, who&#8217;s able to connect with the ship &#8212; and discover that the ship is sending out a distress signal. When the five adults find out who they are and what their current mission is, they&#8217;re all shocked.<\/p>\n<p>This show asks the intriguing question: Can you change who you are, and decide to be a different person?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a bit like <strong>Firefly<\/strong> in tone. The ending of the first episode is stunning. My favourite character is the android, the source of much of the humour. Although it&#8217;s not quite a 5\/5 show the interesting storyline will make you keep coming back for more.<\/p>\n<p>I like the episode in which they open the door to the mystery room and they find a woman in stasis and an entertainment android. This episode brought depth to the character of Three.<\/p>\n<p>Stars Jodelle Ferland and Zoie Palmer.<\/p>\n<p>David Hewlett and Torri Higginson both guest star as someone who hires them for a job. Wil Wheaton also guest stars in the second last episode.<\/p>\n<p>The season ends on an astonishing cliffhanger &#8212; it is currently unknown whether there will be a second season.<\/p>\n<p>Created by Joseph Mallozzi (writer on <strong>Stargate<\/strong> SG-1) and Paul Mullie (writer on <strong>Stargate Atlantis<\/strong>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{4.5\/5} &#8220;Whoever wiped our memories probably did it to make it harder for us to work together.
