SpaceChampion Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 CW picks up a 10-episode fantasy series called The Outpost, from Stargate film & tv creators in their first collaboration. It'll appear on CW this summer, and outside of the U.S. on SyFy's international channels. Quote Talon (Jessica Green, Ash vs Evil Dead), the lone survivor of a race called “Blackbloods.” Years after her entire village is destroyed by a gang of brutal mercenaries, Talon travels to a lawless fortress on the edge of the civilized world, as she tracks the killers of her family. On her journey to this outpost, Talon discovers she possesses a mysterious supernatural power that she must learn to control in order to save herself, and defend the world against a fanatical religious dictator. Jake Stormoen (Extinct, Mythica), Imogen Waterhouse (Nocturnal Animals, Braid) Andrew Howard (Hatfields and McCoys, Hell on Wheels), Anand Desai-Barochia (Emmerdale, Lake Mead) and Robyn Malcolm (Top of the Lake, Hostiles) also star. A Facebook acquaintance ("Xander" from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and apparently Leif Erikson on Legends of Tomorrow) is appearing it regularly too, so that's kind of neat. Really it's the only reason I made a thread at all. He seems quite excited about it. I'll give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red snow Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I guess it'll feature attractive 20-30 year olds with a lot of interpersonal angst if it's CW. Curious about it involving a collaboration with Stargate TV and film creators. If it's the good showrunners from sg-1 then who knows what kind of world they could build. CW is pretty well known for letting shows run a long time. And Stargate was definitely a show that moved forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leofric Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 The first sentence made me think for a second it was a spin off from The 100, with "Blackbloods" and "Nightbloods". Looking forward to new season of The 100 in April. Will give this show a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini Sigil Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 These CW shows are a guilty pleasure... especially the ones that are on at 8PM ... but this looks like it could be fun, in a PG /YA kind of way... .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceChampion Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Premiering tomorrow. Almost forgot of this. Who knows, it might be tolerable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That first episode was pretty much pure shit. I thought the captain of the guard looked familiar, so I looked him up and he was in Mythica too. I watched the first one of those on Amazon prime awhile back. It was pretty much the same level of quality as this. There were a lot of 'pilot' feelings in this, so hopefully there will be improvement as a fun summer show is always appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceChampion Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 I'm actually finding it tolerable. The brewer / scientist character is a bit too cringing. The plot is not slow, and it's not overly derivative while seeming like it would fit right in with Shannara, Legend of the Seeker, and some Forgotten Realms module. I guess it's the characters are more interesting than one would expect from a show like this. They're all at least on identifiable arcs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mexal Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 How? This show is horrible. I couldn't even get it up to being a guilty pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Must be very cheap to make and managed numbers in some demos that made it seem worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mother of The Others Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I feel confident that this program does not exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
