Like a lot of movies, I hope the trailer isn't the best thing about it.

I'm also hoping Amazon can better produce a sci-fi TV show than Syfy, although Syfy sets a pretty low bar, which is why I couldn't get into the first three seasons no matter how hard I tried. It always left me with the same "I'm watching a cheap TV production" feeling I always get when watching some sci-fi series made in Canada like Andromeda, Continuum, Helix, Orphan Black and countless others.

Some of these could actually have been good (I'm thinking in particular of Orphan Black) but the most common fault I frequently find in series like these are the annoyingly repetitive background soundtrack, which can have whole series unwatchable. I don't know why, but I notice these in sci-fi series a lot more than any other genre.
