Some Sy Fy series are good. Some are not. It appears to be a inverse relationship b/t the front office and whatever production studio is running the show.

Here's hoping "The Expanse" (based on James S.A. Corey's series--also VERY Traveller-esque!) is faaaaaarrrrr away from the Sy Fy front office. Faaaaarrrrr away.

There are also elements of Firefly (Crazy Young Psychic Girl and Guy With BIG Gun) . . .

And I just realized that the copying is even more blatant than that: Guy With BIG Gun is an aggressive and highly mercenary brute, who is derisive of Crazy Young Psychic Girl ("How old are you, anyway? 15?")
