The Ark takes place 100 years in the future when planetary colonization missions have begun as a necessity to help secure the survival of the human race. The first of these missions on a spacecraft known as Ark One encounters a catastrophic event causing massive destruction and loss of life. With more than a year left to go before reaching their target planet, a lack of life-sustaining supplies and loss of leadership, the remaining crew must become the best versions of themselves to stay on course and survive.

Didn't take me long at all to know that Lt. Spencer Lane is my least favorite character, that's for sure.
It's too bad because almost everything about the show is pretty good, even if it is a bit campy. The only real problem is a handful of poor writing decisions that make it impossible for the audience's to suspend disbelief. For example they chose to "spin up a planet" (ridiculously dumb) when they could have chosen to "generate a protective magnetic field" (plausible). So the show earns ~4 stars when it could have earned 7 or 8.
