Ascension

Anybody watching this? It's a 3 night "event" on Syfy that concludes tonight. If you haven't seen the first two I suggest at least checking out the first one to see if you like it. I loved the first night, they drop a big WOW twist at the end. The 2nd night was pretty good also. Looking forward to tonight! I think they will show the first two before the last one if you want to see them all tonight.

Ascension | Syfy

The acting is OK but the whole idea and story is about genius though. This probably could have made a blockbuster movie. I guess I'll have to see how it ends before I give it too much praise.

If you have been watching use spoiler tags in case others want to see it.

Shit. I forgot all about this. The previews looked really good.

I try to keep away from the Syfy channel movies. They're usually pretty bad with crappy effects. Maybe this time they spent a little money to make it less crappy.

If you dvr it make sure you FF through the commercials. When they replay the older ones the idiots practically put spoilers in there.

Same here but they did a real good job with this. The acting isn't the best in the world but it's still a great show......so far

I'll watch it on demand; there's essentially no commercials.

I have to watch the second still, but loved the first. Kind of twisted getting into it, but once the concept took hold it's pretty good.

I thought the Elton John Rocket Man song was great when they were panning though the ship in the beginning though.

I watched the last one last night. It was pretty good but a slight letdown compared to the end of the 1st one. It kind of goes out into left field and leaves ends untied. It ends like they are going to make a series out of it.

I watched the 1st part I will watch parts 2-3 next week when I get back from a trip. I loved the twist at the end.

This is definitely not one of their saturday night B movies. Its more in line with the 2 night pilot for the New Battlestar Galactica. There have been reports that they are striving to back to doing more shows like that.

Potential future seasons

Although the show was ordered as a miniseries, it could potentially run for multiple seasons, similar to the network's popular series Battlestar Galactica (BSG) — and coincidentally starring BSG's Tricia Helfer. If it does well, Levens stated that he already has ideas for future seasons in mind.
