Killjoys and Dark Matter Tried To Bring Fun Back to Space. Here’s How To Do Better.

A few months ago, Syfy made a push back into the fun space-adventure programming we used to see from the channel. Fridays saw them airing Killjoys and Dark Matter, both of which just got renewed. Both shows had a lot going for them, but do they deserve another season? And how can they improve next…

Syfy has renewed both Dark Matter and Killjoys for second seasons, thirteen episodes for the former and ten for the latter. When the shows return in 2016, they’ll join new shows The Magicians and The Expanse and returning show 12 Monkeys.

This Week, Killjoys Focuses On Politics…At The Expense of Character

We didn’t really get much development of our core characters this week on Killjoys.

Last week, D’avin ‘passed’ his psych eval, and…
