Things aren’t breezy enough here to be a jaunty sword-and-dagger fest. Talon is too serious-minded for that with her understandable determination to kill her mother’s killers in addition to avenging the attempted wiping out of an entire race. The first episode never dawdles in this respect. Future hours may calm down considerably on the action front. But even at a slower pace, The Outpost seems to promise enough mayhem, intrigue and burgeoning feminism to make for a satisfying enough summer run.
The series, which is humorous enough and romantic enough and as bloody as it needs to be for the international market, is not completely predictable.

If you liked the series Merlin you will also enjoy it. The series has its faults but the show is entertaining and fills a gap in the market right now. If you have kids I think this is a highly recommended program. I hope they keep it running for season 2.
Acting is decent but the plot is very entertaining.

SEASON 1
This show, while low budget I feel shows great potential. I think in this modern era we are jaded by tv shows with high production values and any show that doesn't get the marvel netflix treatment is immediately shunned. If you are a fan of older tv shows from my childhood like Buffy and Xena warrior princess than this show will fill familiar. That being said the first couple of episodes are abit slow and hard to get into, but if you can see past that you will be treated to a thrilling nestalgia trip.

SEASON 1
Imagine a low-rent “Game of Thrones” wannabe with bargain basement special effects and a paint-by-numbers plot and you’ve got a good conception of the fantasy drama "The Outpost."
Outpost might remind you of the heyday--or low point--of syndicated shows in the late ’80s or ’90s. It’s not “Xena: Warrior Princess”--it’s more on par with the dreck of “Beastmaster.”
The Outpost isn't offensively bad. It's just head-scratchingly, "Why is this getting domestic distribution at all?" bad or "Geez, I hope The CW doesn't think it's going to be able to lure fans of The 100 to this" bad.
The Outpost is a fantastic new show brought to us by Dean Devlin and the producers of the Mythica movies, and it is truly great! It has strong female leads, fast pacing, great story-line with lots of twists and turns. The characters are interesting and well-played. It has fantasy, sci-fi, romance, mystery, humor, creatures and action. It leaves you wanting more-- more of the actors, more of the characters and more seasons to watch the story and characters evolve. Well done!! And it's from an independent film studio

SEASON 1
I have mixed feelings. The protagonist is a very bad actor, doesn't seem natural at all, in a lot of situations overacts, and the script doesn't help her. The reactions of the characters and the motivations are built with a childish mind I think. The fights are unrealistic as well: momentum, leverage or physics in general never restricted the mind of the choreographer (ok, this happens almost all fantasy movies, GoT was a refreshing exception with its more realistic approach.)
BUT:
There are very few good fantasy series around, and this one isn't the worst at all. And there are children, middle aged and old actors as well. I really hate when most of the characters are teenagers.
The costumes, scenes, buildings and the atmosphere of the outpost itself feels good enough, I liked it. And I don't want to speak about the plot, this was the first episode. So far I didn't find stupid contradictions in terms, the logic of the plot isn't broken. On the long run the plot can be good as well. I expect a relatively generic fantasy story, which I think suits this series.
If you like old school rpg games, I think you can give to the movie a higher score, because against all weakness, there is a strong, familiar RPGish atmosphere, which saved the episode for me. If you aren't an RPG loving type, you can even dislike this.

SEASON 1
WOW! the show could be good if the ideas are seared into the right direction, but the lead actress is killing every chance of being watchable.
I have the feeling that she didn't get the chance to read the script before shooting, has no idea what her character is supposed to be nor how to represent **** bad, it could be a show, and now i suppose it is going to be canceled after fist season :(
what am I going to watch? :(
