Let’s not forget that their stalwart captain, Roy Eris, was hacked apart by the deranged Rowan (no one on the bridge tried to step in either) and turns out to be some type of android. Karl is seeing to Agatha’s sendoff into space while the crew fights to keep the ship together after Augustine’s sabotage. While Roy’s android body may be destroyed, he remains alive–though his is an existence devoid of any semblance of real living.īeginning minutes after the conclusion of “ Icarus”, the Nightflyer is in pandemonium. Unfortunately, that’s still not enough, especially when one considers one of the more ridiculous plot-points introduced for no other reason but to cause conflict. Surprisingly enough, the finale comes close to recapturing the good, strong narrative anticipation created in those first few episodes. And while Nightflyers is a much better show-though, to be fair, The Happening was better entertainment than the Heroes revival-that heavy weight of disappointment is mirrored in Nightflyers.Īfter being given such a horrid lead-in with the previous episode, the prospects that the season finale, “All That We Have Found” could save Nightflyers was nothing more than wishful thinking. The last time I was this disappointed in a television series was Heroes: Reborn. They can change our entire world.”Ī telltale sign that a show was disappointing is when, as a viewer, you’re anticipating to the second that moment when you no longer have to put yourself through watching it.
