Syfy's new show seems to have the right recipe to be a big hit

Basically, sci-fi was never been my number one choice for TV shows or even a movie. Judge me all you want, but I always find that genre was the least appealing to watch with the science bull crap and all that. So, that’s why I never have a series with that specific genre in my bucket list. And I never thought I was willing to watch one.

But then, Syfy came up with a new show calls ‘Helix’. And I’m glad that I took a chance on it. Because that was probably the most intense, suspenseful pilot I’ve ever seen since BBC America introduced ‘Orphan Black’ on small screen last year.

'Community' season 5: the quirks are back

For you who’ve been the devoted fans of the Greendale’s gang since season 1, must be agree that season 4 is totally a disaster. It had all the formula to make the sitcom once we loved turned into a cheap, embarrassing comedy. The one season that made the greatness of the whole three seasons before seems to be forgotten. 

But, thank God, season 5 now already came out and it given the fans everything we’ve missed from the good old days of ‘Community’. Of course, I’ve already expect the best from the show since Dan Harmon was back behind the wheels to stir everything up and making it right again, but still the results were beyond what I’ve been hoping for.

On season 4, fans had to bear with dull and repetitive jokes, ridiculous romance relationship between Britta and Troy, and even a silly attempt to hook Abed up with a girl (I mean, c’mon!). And that wasn’t even the worst part.
