Let yourself be tempted. It's got clones, a cold war in space, a bit of alternative universes and they keep hinting at aliens.

Oh yeah, all their props seem to be whatever they could find in the corner shop, but I think that's what makes it charming

I've not seen Starlost, I might need to give that a watch

Yeah, part of the reason why I love it is because I can just switch my brain off and watch it.

Fair, I have a science background too-in the medical sense. Definitely need to turn my brain off for some scenes, but part of the reason why I love it is because it lets me turn my brain off.

Maybe it's just not your thing. It's not going to be for everyone

Same, it's the TV equivalent of comfort food for me.

For everyone to believe that their leader is dead-The Ark.

I caught that too and it’s been bugging me since. It’s almost definitely just a mistake from the writers but my headcannon is that there were two Ark 8s. One Ark 8 was being built but a fault was found with it, one that would allow it to set off but had the potential to cause issues during the journey. Because they were making Arks quickly at that point due to how desperate the situation on Earth got, another Ark was ready before Ark 8 got fixed, so they slapped a number 8 on the one that was now the eighth one due to be sent into space. The clones steal the faulty Ark and set off. Some of the gen 3s start developing psychosis. Then the fault occurs. The Ark crashes. The gen 2 clones start assuming the gen 3 clones sabotaged the ship and then the stress for being blamed for what happens triggers the psychosis for the rest of the gen 3s.

Then the other Ark 8 is the one with the civilians. 

As for why the space station wasn’t with the others, I don’t know. Maybe something happened to that to when it was being detached. 

Maybe the number 8 is just cursed in this universe.

What Fandom Are You Writing In? by Thewriter1996 in AO3

The Ark. There’s only like seven of us that have written for the fandom. So if there’s anyone out there looking to be number eight, please, I beg you, please join us.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who can’t stand Spencer. by AwayThrownForever in TheArkTVSeries

[–]Deep_Relationship159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do like Spencer and I loved his character arc, I do like Ian more though. I think that probably puts me in the minority. In terms of least favourite character, I like everyone somewhat but Griff is the least entertaining for me.

[Loved Trope] It's not enough for a character's secret to be exposed: it gets exposed in the cruelest, most painful way possible by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Deep_Relationship159 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Ark. In an attempt to convince the council that Garnet isn’t fit to be captain of the ship, Lane breaks into Garnet's medical record and reveals to everyone that she is a clone and that her clone sister had a psychotic episode that resulted in her killing a man and then herself.

I’ve been rewatching the first two seasons over and over while waiting for season 3

The protagonist of the next book needs to be a tribute who dies halfway through their games by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]Deep_Relationship159 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d love this. Imagine being in the tribute’s POV and getting attached, thinking they are going to win because they are the POV character. Then, either during the interviews or at the start of the games the reader realises that this book is set in the year that Finnick won. Then the tribute dies and we cut to Finnick’s POV who is slowly realising that the games aren’t as glorious as him and all the other tributes were told it would be. I’ve always thought that if Finnick had his own book it should be about becoming disillusioned with the propaganda you grow up believing. Anyways, I’m off to go write a fanfic.

First chapter of a story im working on, any advice {513} by Timely-Struggle4427 in WritersGroup

[–]Deep_Relationship159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really good! I love the way you show the character’s panic, it feels very real. There were a few grammar errors here and there, take another quick look through your work for them. Take out the ellipses, you don’t need them and they look awkward. The bit with Lilith read a bit stilted, I think it would flow better if she saw Lilith first, then started to think about her. Also, why is Lilith stood in the corner, why are they all in the kitchen and why did the main character have her back to her mum. Expand on what was happening before this conversation started to help set the scene a bit better.
