Outcasts
With Earth no longer habitable, a group of courageous pioneers have traveled to another planet to begin again. They've built the town of Forthaven on Carpathia and have the unique opportunity of creating a new and better future on another planet. Led by President Tate (Liam Cunningham, Clash Of The Titans) and his core team of Stella (Hermione Norris, MI-5), Cass (Daniel Mays, Atonement) and Fleur (Amy Manson, Being Human), they're determined to run the civilization in a democratic way, but some tough decisions in the past may prove divisive.
As the series begins, it's a moment of incredible anticipation. Forthaven has lost all contact with Earth but the arrival of the last known transporter, with Julius Berger (Eric Mabius of Ugly Betty) on board, signals fresh hopes and dreams. But why does President Tate seem anxious about the imminent arrival of Berger and will the transporter land safely with Stella's husband and daughter, who she heartbreakingly left behind?
Meanwhile those appointed Expeditionaries, Mitchell (Jamie Bamber, Battlestar Galactica) and Jack (Ashley Walters, Hustle), have a mission to explore the new planet and bring back vital information to the settlement. Will they find other life out there, or do they truly have the planet to themselves?
The settlers are a diverse group of individuals who left their old lives behind in extraordinary circumstances. They've been promised a second chance but are far away from home, friends, family and their pasts. Passionate about their jobs, confident of their ideals and optimistic about the future, they work hard to preserve what they've built on the planet they now call home.
Carpathia offers the possibility of redemption as the new inhabitants try to avoid the mistakes made on Earth. Inevitably they cannot escape the human pitfalls of love, greed, lust, loss, corruption and a longing for those they've left behind. As they continue to work and live together, they come to realize this is no ordinary planet. Is there a bigger purpose at work? Is the peace of Forthaven more fragile than they think?

Re: Outcasts - Season 1
Ainda não sei bem o que pensar da série. Ainda só vi o primeiro episódio e fiquei um pouco com a ideia de que com tanto para explorar, poderão estragar tudo focando-se demasiado na condição humana. Sinceramente já estou um pouco a ressacar de sci-fi puro e duro, e se quiser ver mais séries de relações humanas, vejo uma passada num hospital ou numa esquadra de polícia, ou seja lá o que anda por aí aos pontapés. Quero sci-fi!!! JÁ! 

Re: Outcasts - Season 1
Também eu anseio por uma grande série space opera, desde os anos 90 com séries como Babylon 5, ST Deep Space Nine ou Space Above and Beyond que não se vê esse tipo de série, Galactica aproximou-se mas não foi bem uma space opera, as séries SG são demasiado light.

We want sci-fi and we want it now. Stargate Universe é muito fraquita.
