So, I've been rather ill-advisedly watching this programme "Outcasts" on BBC iPlayer. It is (or was) a sort of SF drama about colonists settling on an uninhabited (or is it?!) Earth-like planet, and to be honest, it wasn't really that good. In terms of themes and general style, it was sort of a lacklustre British knock-off of the rebooted Battlestar Galactica, but not as well written or acted (despite having an okay sort of cast, really). But anyway, for some reason I felt compelled to stick with it through all eight episodes, and kind of got to know the characters and then, in the last episode, the story suddenly gets a bit faster-paced and actually a bit interesting, and it all ends on this whopping cliffhanger.

So naturally, I discover now that the Beeb have cancelled it after one series and I'll never get to know how the cliffhanger pans out. This irks me.
