Boy Those Spaceships On 'Killjoys' And 'Dark Matter' Sure Are Roomy
Cathedral ceilings, wide open passageways, completely normal artificial gravity. And where do they keep the fuel on those things? And the supplies for the crew, food, water? Lucy zips around the solar system in Killjoys in minutes and does atmospheric liftoff and reentry like its not ever any problem whatsoever, while the Raza on Dark Matter has super nifty FTL propulsion and handy-dandy shields and a perfectly humanoid android who does everything without much muss or fuss. Pretty amazingly unbelievable. It sucks that design language for tee vee spacecraft is always Star Trek and never 2001. I get that both Killjoys and Dark Matter have to produce each episode for no more than 1300 or 1400 Canadian dollars, but jeez. I guess a (more) realistic space action tee vee show would be pretty boring. And expensive.
