    Blown away, better than anything I've seen come out of Hollywood in a while! Hats off to Eli and his team, that was a work of art.
  • @ocnier
    Creepy-est scene by far was the "asteroid" field. Excellent series.
  • Just one word: Wow! I've seen and read a lot of sci-fi in my 77 years, but this is absolutely one of the best series I've ever seen. It's got it all from superb acting to an excellent plot to dynamite (no pun intended) special effects. Kudos to the team that put this together.
  • @KevinMacaringue
    Atropa was a roller-coaster ride that had me hooked from the beginning. World-class acting, cinematography, CGI, story-telling, twists, concepts - it had it all. I believe you have hit one of the furthest galaxies of sci-fi. Take a bow!
  • @WildDisaster
    When he realizes he can save the woman he loves by staying on that ship...giving her the chance to save the "other" him....perfection.
  • This caught me off guard, I didn't expected it to be this good. I'm glad I got to watch it once every episode came out, crazy to think that we are seeing good stuff like this for free! large applause to very person involved on this series.
  • @deathstrike
    Why can't we have Sci Fi like this? THIS blows away Star Trek, Picard, and others. This is what Sci Fi was!! So simple and elegant a story. A "literature" type story, with more emphasis on story, less on CGI and tech. More please!!!!!!
  • I got so invested in this story, in these characters, I'm actually sorry it had to end. This was really wonderful.
  • @damonstr
    When I started watching this series I thought I can expect wooden acting combined with a decent story. What I got was some of the best scifi in recent memory. Hats off to the team!!!!!
  • @deathgodsinc
    to all those wondering, the song at the end is "To drift away" by gresby Nash, great song paired with a great scene and soundtrack.
  • @ComeonmenID10T
    Holy smokes that was AMAZING ....... the acting, the visual, the sounds, the lighting, the twist and turns, the story arc ....... I'm blown away, this mini series is much more than OSCAR Material ......WOW i'am impressed
  • Magnificent. The ending is so incredibly redemptive. For everyone. My apologies to Sanders for calling him whiney boy.
  • You know you have to be doing something right when you can cast a talented actor like Michael Ironside for just one ten-minute episode! 😎👍
  • @OGSontar
    I...I honestly can't remember when the last time was that I've seen a story of this quality. The acting was spot on; I can imagine myself reacting exactly as the crew did. The script was absolutely fantastic! Haven't seen writing like this in, oh, years and years, at least. Maybe even decades. The visuals, sets and special effects were every bit as good as what Hollywood churns out, if not better. This is what movies and TV serials used to be like. When the effort was on the acting, the production, and the quality of the final product. You can really tell the love that went into this art masterpiece. Thank you so much for sharing your vision with us. Bravo! Bravo! BRAVO!
  • @ryanrevis827
    Best sci-fi series I’ve seen in decades. That was a hell of a ride. Excellent work.
  • @ToddLarsen
    I'm at a loss for words, that was a beautiful work of science fiction film. The ring around the planet blew my mind.
  • @Laffy-ix5xy
    Atropa was brilliant. Everything was good including the story, the CGI, the acting, and the characters. It's surprising how much we got to know some of the characters, especially Cole and Moira. I would love to see a sequel to this, or even a prequel. Maybe even a different story set in the Atropa universe.
  • Speechless. Extremely grateful to witness such a powerful production of this magnitude. Thank you for sharing to an audience in need. May each and everyone of you climb to success... achieve your claim to fame !
