Dark Matter - Season 1
The six-person crew of a derelict spaceship awakens from stasis in the farthest reaches of space. Their memories wiped clean, they have no recollection of who they are or how they got on board. The only clue to their identities is a cargo bay full of weaponry and a destination: a remote mining colony that is about to become a war zone. With no idea whose side they are on, they face a deadly decision. Will these amnesiacs turn their backs on history, or will their pasts catch up with them?

It's a good twist. What Dark Matter makes of it in future episodes remains to be seen.
June 10, 2015
Dark Matter is a dud, and likely to make as much of a dent in the pop-cultural consciousness as the invisible substance it's named after.
October 13, 2015
Dark Matter succeeds despite its derivative elements... because as the season progresses interesting back stories build on questions about nature, nurture and choice.
June 22, 2015
Overall, Dark Matter is a fun ride through space. It also dangles enough mystery early on to potentially keep audiences tuned in next week.
June 09, 2015
Since nearly everything on the show is equally derivative, nothing stands out as egregiously bad or egregiously good. Dark Matter doesn't matter.

You'd better get your underwear as smooth as possible becomes here comes the big last-minute twist.
June 22, 2015
The ending twist... promises the chance for some interesting character moments as soon as next week.
June 12, 2015
It's a set up that holds promise, and may yield interesting future results, but feels lifeless and uninspired here.
June 12, 2015
Dark Matter is lightweight.
