It was still fun though. Dean Devlin has a knack for making awful/trashy sci-fi that one enjoys in the moment nonetheless.

The Ark television show, now with two complete seasons, definitely fits that mould. Fortunately, it delivers messaging that’s much more aspirational and Star Trek-like. Which is why I have been a booster for it here.

Some of the worst CGI pixelated ship models since B5. The title sequence looks like it was made in another century. The production design is aggressively dreary to the point you can believe the ships were thrown together from printed pieces in a rush. But the show overcomes that in its own weird way.

From a scene from the 1996 film #IndependenceDay showing a scene played by Michael Rennie from the 1951 film, ‘The Day The Earth Stood Still’ a scene is referenced in films and television shows. #UAP / #UFO …lol #drones
