Meh, imo compared to most of Star Trek or Babylon 5 it was kinda mid (even Star Wars - The Clone War was better). Just basically American mil-prop but in space.

Let me remind you of the original premise: A ~~conspiracy theorist nutjob~~ eccentric professor (thinks aliens build the pyramids, but is somehow still allowed to lecture at an university) is hired by the military to help them explore an unknown world where they have to save ~~uncivilised savages~~ helpless slaves (using, you've guessed it: guns) from an ~~evil dictator~~ all powerfull god (who still needs slaves tho).

The more I think about it, it's not even mid, it's crap. It has no wonder for what's beyond the stars, just a constant psychotic fear of anything that could even remotely be considered a danger to ~~America~~ Earth. And the only solution to it is shoot at it.
