I have just finished episode 2 and it gets more interesting. You can't really judge any show by the first episode. Usually busy introducing concepts and characters. Who knows 6 episodes left and I still might hate it, but should give any show at least 2 episodes. I liked Terra Nova and Earth 2 an it seems much in the same vein. No bother to me if you never give episode 2 a try, just throwing my deflated .02 cents into the ring.
