Dark Matter Season 1

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Based on the graphic novel series of the same name, “Dark Matter” revolves around a derelict spaceship’s six-person crew, who, in the Season 1 premiere, awaken from stasis with their memories completely wiped out. Deciding to call themselves “One” through “Six,” in the order they are revived, it soon becomes clear that they have maintained some vital skills, including one who is a martial arts expert, another who can operate the ship, and a teenage girl (Jodelle Ferland) who’s knowledgeable about medicine and circuitry. Before long, the humans are joined by a homicidal android (Zoie Palmer) that Two (Melissa O’Neil) quickly reprograms, at which point the robot makes herself useful by reconstructing the ship’s data. Eventually, the amnesiacs learn their intended destination: a remote mining colony in deep space that’s soon to become a warzone—and they have no idea whose side they are on! Once there, they begin looking for answers to their identities, which are revealed piece by piece over the course of 13 episodes. The cast also features Marc Bendavid, Anthony Lemke, Alex Mallari Jr. and Roger Cross, plus Will Wheaton shows up as a diabolical nemesis for the crew.

This show has such an interesting mix of characters that it’s easy to overlook the fact that the majority of the first season was set on the Raza itself.-Blair Marnell

I’ve really been looking forward to this show and was ready to be wowed; I just wasn’t. That doesn’t mean I won’t continue to anticipate Fridays on Syfy during the summer, and I’m optimistic the show will have its payoff, perhaps quite soon.-Michael Ahr
