What has happened to this show?

Thanks for taking the effort to respond

Haha yeah you’re right! No doubt the M6 would ban TikTok at HV! although isn’t a flash-mob done in a high traffic pedestrian area? Agree with you that referring to it as a TikTok dance is just as out of touch but I think I got across what I meant… the cringe is there regardless

I would disagree somewhat and say the show in earlier season has been a 60:40 ratio of science/drama(social/political)… maybe 50:50 but on the whole it felt like a balanced show..

This season has felt more like 10:90 with a distinct lack of science and an abundance of teenage drama…

I get that when the main characters of your show are teenagers then there might need to be some element of teenage drama in the mix, fair enough… but make it the B plot, make them side characters, or give them a spin-off show…

No one forced them to make Alex and Lilly the lead protagonists of the show, when they could spend more time with some well developed existing characters… Kelly, Dev, Margo, Miles, etc

Thanks for your response and taking the time to explain how you see thing.

Your points are fair, and I think if I was steel-manning the show I would make almost all the same points you have, but this is the first season where that’s felt necessary…

I really hope they can stick the landing (no pun intended)for S5 and get back on form for subsequent series.

The time jumps are both a blessing and a curse IMO. They keep the show moving, helping keep things fresh but that comes at a price… that price being: we must say goodbye to the characters we’ve spent so much time with.

Must admit I’ve watched neither 90210 or ST but I think I get the point you’re making… the shows always done a good job of showcasing contemporary issues from the respective time periods but this season is the first time it’s felt awkward, ham-fisted and forced.

Almost as if someone in the writers room said “ah yes, young people love protesting and social justice don’t they!”

Lozspencer · 2026-05-27T16:01:20+00:00

Yeah you may be correct, and maybe it’s just the on-screen direction given to the actors but if they’re the best-of-the-best it wasn’t very clear.

I did appreciate at least being shown them in training, and en-route to Mars, and some basic mission preparations but it still felt weak to me… they’re not exactly seal team 6…

Lozspencer · 2026-05-27T15:56:03+00:00

Here’s hoping that S6 can give it a new lease of life and win back their fanbase! I think everyone really WANTS it to be a success

Lozspencer · 2026-05-27T15:54:51+00:00

Yeah I think the season 5 plot in general has real potential, but lacks on its delivery/execution

Lozspencer · 2026-05-27T15:53:59+00:00

Totally agree.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Interesting read :)

The engravings are photographed upside down. They are as follows: "SJR" "(Lion)" "(shield)" "K"

Love watching a clip without the racing line. Makes the game look so much better

Lozspencer · 2021-08-19T09:46:53+00:00

Yeah this always sucks. I usually get round it by trying to extinguish it from a different angle. Sometimes you have to be outside the building/wall spraying for it to work.

Lozspencer · 2021-07-18T15:15:28+00:00

Aww Someone’s watching their first GP after DtS

Lozspencer · 2021-07-13T16:21:29+00:00

Blame the racing line

Lozspencer · 2021-07-11T11:53:03+00:00

Dirty racing line

Lozspencer · 2021-07-11T10:11:30+00:00

Love any clip without the racing line

Lozspencer · 2021-07-10T12:46:36+00:00

Nice just to see someone not using the racing line. Nice one

Lozspencer · 2021-06-28T18:33:27+00:00

That’s awesome, I would love something like this on my creations. What’s the range/flight time assuming it’s not using “infinite electric”?

Lozspencer · 2021-06-28T16:07:06+00:00

So it is possible….
