"SyFy" are getting back into the Sci-Fi business, and their first series under that banner looks interesting.

It's on tonight in the US, and is being shown as a mini-series.

It's about an alternate universe where a spaceship was launched from Earth in the 60's amid fears of nuclear war, on a 100 year journey to another galaxy/star system/place. However, it's actually a murder mystery, and the spaceship is just the setting, supposedly.

Could be interesting :)

Just watched the first episode of this. Quite good actually.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
I didn't realise it was all a setting until the very end

I'm half way through and loving it already. They have the 60s aesthetic absolutely spot on, and little details like a different number of stars on the flag have me intriegued.

Does everyone who watched it know it's been cancelled after 3 episodes?

Hmmm SyFy are also doing a remake of 12 Monkeys, which is one of my favourite films.
