Last day of work before the holiday and weekend. I'm spending the rest of the day catching up on Interstellar. :)

Which is — what exactly? A TV show?

Ack! It's Intergalactic, a TV show on Syfy.

What's it like? I am busy with a couple of Chinese and Russian shows...

I think this is the best description:
Sky's poorly received Intergalactic is a genre rarely seen, a honest-to-Blake very British sci-fi. A space-convict caper wrapped around a political intrigue story with environmental overtones - it rarely stops for a minute, is hugely melodramatic, has more twists than a curly-wurly, some genuinely shocking moments and boasts a fairly likeable core cast of characters (including the deeply watchable Thomas Turgoose as a hapless prison guard). Is it good? Not especially, but I'm deeply glad it was made and had a serious lark watching it. Let's hope the lukewarm reaction doesn't damn us to even less Brit sci-fi going forward.
