I watched Outcasts on BBC last night as it was in pace of Doctor Who. I love the concept, but it's sloooow. It does contain plenty of conspiracy theory and paranoia fodder which bodes better for the future. I'll likely watch a few more before I know if it's worth the hassle. I also gave Falling Skies a shot. Boring premise, but good pacing and actually have a few aspects other things with the same premise didn't, which lends hope for better things to come. I'm also willing to give it a few more chances to improve. As usual, both shows have all white people in charge/as main characters. Sigh. Lets hope the supporting cast gets more face time in future. At least the English show has women in positions of power. Both shows also seem to be using children for melodramatic purposes and the American show is also using dogs. Sigh.
