In perhaps the most surprising turn of the evening, the show completely betrays the audience's expectations for a space drama and gives us instead The Truman Show in space.

The way it's going, though, Ascension seems more interested in its characters' affairs than the strange, terrifying, miraculous world it's created.

The problems presented in the show's first hour are fairly superficial, and -- barring a drastic midseries turn -- that's unlikely to change.

Part of what makes Ascension excellent is its genuine commitment to surprise and pace.

Clearly, there are lots of things to like about Ascension. The characters are well-enough developed in the early going that I could actually have done without the murder mystery - or, for that matter, the space strangeness.

Ascension was science fiction without science, character-driven narrative without characters and a story so lacking in interest that this could be the cure for insomnia.

All things considered, Ascension is a rather fun way to spend a few of my evenings.

Syfy taps into a couple of resonant themes with Ascension, and tells the story well if not very subtly.

It is excellent science fiction, and I urge such minded individuals to watch it. And be patient with it.

An intriguing sci-fi premise becomes seriously less so. The first episode is worth watching for the buildup and the surprise, but many viewers will abandon spaceship at the end.

Ascension is hokey and hyper-staged. But there's a twist at the end of the first night that should have you coming back.
