    This has held my interest for the duration.. I just don't get the 30 second 'time loop' flashbacks. cannot for the life of me understand their purpose, become disruptive.. Science talk fascinating.. Knowing noting about the subject, it sounds plausible, and is like a DNA 'who-dun-it' from episode to episode.. Characters, casting good.. Pretty much every actor gets a chance to 'shine in the light'. which makes it more appealing.. They really skirt some issues, they bring up, then again, this is entertainment, not soul evolving preaching. All in all pretty fine.

    Really enjoyed this series which has only just reached Australia. One of the cable channels out here screened 5 episodes a week so it was just like watching the boxed set.Seasons 1 and 2 in particular were very good. Some of the story lines in Seasons 3 and 4 stretched the imagination a bit too far but they had created such a great group of characters by that time that it didn't really matter. In particular Peter Outerbridge as David Sandstrom was a great lead character. It will be missed.

    ReGenesis is one of my favorite shows I been very fortunate to watch and you got some great talented actors that are involved with the production. Talented people like Maxim Roy who plays Caroline Morrison who is the director of NORBAC and very gorgeous woman to boot plays her part very well. Dimtry Chepovetsky playing the brainy Bob Melnikov who certainly knows his science to a T. These are the only two characters I enjoyed seeing on ReGenesis that really flows well with the show. It's now about to be seen on Global which they'll be showing all the first season shows. This is a must show everyone should look at. Can't wait for the second season on Movie Central.

    I watched the first episode not expecting much. I was surprised that the story was rather enthralling. The actors are OK, if not great. Both Maxim Roy and the rest of the supporting cast are OK, but nothing more - adequate, without blowing my mind. Peter Outerbridge as the main character, geneticist Dr. David Sandstrom is actually better than that. His dogged dedication to his work at the expense of his own life and the people in it is very well portrayed.----------- POSSIBLE MINOR SPOILERS ----------------Where the series goes wrong is that they seem to have a lot of ideas, but didn't reject any of them and added them all as plot points which weakens the whole story. For example they got through the first viral scare so fast that by the time the tension mounted, it was already over. From there off to the next subplot and so on. Blowing from one major event to another works in a series such as 24 or Alias where there is always a high level of tension and unexpectedness but doesn't quite fit with this series.Still I admire the effort of a Canadian cable channel in trying to do what HBO and to a lesser extent Showtime do which is TV programming with a twist from the average drab network fare.One side I liked is that the whole series sounded and looked very natural with respect to booze. The 15 year old daughter gets a beer and her father doesn't go apes***. Can you imagine a teen on a WB show coming home and opening a beer in front of her dad without that being completely scandalous.Final score 7/10 +.5 home team (canadian) bonus :)
