One of the best Serials of AXN...
Though its not on the telecast right now... anyways, if you are interested in science fiction, by far which has been almost fantasy type in every case... you must see this to add the logic part. Every happening and evolution comes with logic. GENE of ’star trek’ have tried to show the logic behind it, as good as he can.
Storyline:
~~~~~~
Story starts with an Alien race TAYLONs, there are very few of them who comes to our earth with a hope of peace (actually the real reason is to dominate earth to get themselves the life energy they need, core energy which they say..) their race is very technologically advanced who gives humans a new meaning of tech. (few episodes on this are the best, they have tried to give outline of new weapons that could be found, with the probable ideas behind them.)
The story continues with Taylons being diplomatic and trying to get humans under them with fake appearance that they are here to make friends, and one of the Taylon ’Don’ IS a friend of a group of people who are hired to give him safety. He helps them a lot of time with the rising issues. There’s one ruthless rular who’s in charge of the Earth mission for taylons, (Thats usual alien story). And similarly there’s one anti-taylon group too who tries there best all the time to fail taylons idea. The main character of the serials are the hired safety for the taylons who has hard time deciding if taylons are trustworthy enough or not.
After some time the Ruthless rular slowly shows him self and his idea up and threats people of nations cause TAylon race is at the end of their times. And then comes the End, where the last five-six episodes we would be hung by their lips to know what happens next. One must see his self to feel the emotions behind it. For more, I wont ruin the suspense by telling the end... smiles
Best Parts
~~~~~~
Nice stunts and Strong story line, especially one which ppl can believe in...
And yeah... don’t miss out on the title track, VERY SUPERB piece of art it self.
What I like the most in it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My favorites are the stunts, with the females. And also the parts where complex ideas have been shared with lightness. So much philosophy behind each episode. And even all are connected to a way. Not like star-trek where every episode comes with a new story and after some time it starts to bore us as things get repeated again.
New

Season 2 that had been up was including the Second race of Aliens, far more powerful than TAylons. They came from where the Taylons stopped their journey. Though I missed out on episodes due to personal time hazards, one interesting theory that they gave.. That I watched and liked. They stated tht the Second race actually came a long time ago on earth; even it was their planet in first hand. The storytellers joined the old myths of almost all religions with it, and there came a few GREAT episodes again.
... The season still continues, and will be up in some more months with new flavor as I guess my thirst is still not sated, and they know that!! Smiles
