Anyone else watch? New HBO series.

Concept: People are on a Space Cruise around Saturn. It looks and feels like a cruise ship. There is a mishap and the ship goes off course, turning an 8 week cruise into a 3 year cruise. Obviously, in space, this will not work out.

Sounds potentially interesting. If I had HBO, I'd give it a go.

Are an actress, professor, and millionaire couple among the passengers?

I like it so far, but only episode out.

Spoiler Alert:

The issue is, the people hired to do the jobs may only be window dressing. When the public sees the bridge, they see the Captain. They see a strong rugged man and his people sitting around consoles reviewing information. The Captain gives commands and they execute them.

What if...these were just actors that looked the part better than the real people. And then something tragic occurs? That is the concept of the show. I don't think I'm giving away too much as I don't know much more than this.

The Millionaire is the owner of the company, but single and a serious dickhead. Lots of actors and actresses. And the professor? He's dead...
