With the recent success of science fiction shows on streaming services, fans of the genre can look to Netflix for another interesting sci-fi show.

Dark Matter sees the crew of a derelict ship floating through space waking up with no memory of who they are or how they got onboard the ship. The series follows them as they travel the galaxy in search of their real identities and deal with corrupt business corporations and other challenges in a dark and gritty future.

Dark Matter is a cleverly written series that showcases some decent special effects. It perfectly balances action and mystery to keep the audience intrigued. What separates this show from other science fiction series is the storyline, as the audience learns about each crew member in rich, unique stories all strung together to form one epic narrative.

Fans of sci-fi thrillers will want to make Dark Matter their next binge.
