From NetFlix:
Set in 2040, this BBC sci-fi drama focuses on the residents of the frontier town of Forthaven on the planet Carpathia — a region colonized by a hardy group of settlers who rocketed away from Earth in the wake of war and nuclear devastation.
Because one of the actors in this British Sci-fi TV series is Hermione Norris (who plays Stella Isen) I started to watch “The Outcasts”. Ms. Norris was one of the main actors in the British TV series MI-5.
Although this series is nothing special, the plot twisted enough to keep me watching. Some characters were interesting, for example
- Hermione Norris offers a stiking appearance. She can also act.
- Eric Mabius as Julius Berger plays a wonderfully insidious villain arrived from Earth and plots to take over Forthaven. He plays Peter Caldwell in the successful American TV series “Scandal”.
- Liam Cunningham played Ser Davos Seaworth in “Game of Thrones”> In “Outcasts” he is the current president of Forthaven and the target of Julius Berger’s schemes.
If cloned humans, escape from a failed planet Earth, a mysterious new planet Carpathia, political maneuvering, love affairs (open or secret), and huge dust storms interest you, then give this 8-episode series a try.
