Season 1 Review: Dominion is dark, and the angels portrayed here are scary--not the heavenly do-gooders we’ve come to know them as through other media. Based on the pilot episode, good has a long way to go before it can overcome evil--if that’s even possible. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Dominion will never be confused with sophisticated TV but in its pilot episode, the only episode made available for review, it’s surprisingly more entertaining and a better yarn than plenty of other Syfy efforts. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It still has a lot of work to do, but with care, Dominion has the potential to grow into something special. Read full review

Season 1 Review: SyFy routinely demonstrates that today’s tricks have gotten too easy, which is why Dominion feels like it is unintentionally telling a separate story of a world in which humanity is held captive by quickie CGI. Read full review

Season 1 Review: When Dominion isn’t preoccupied with filling in its portentous back story, it provides some capably filmed action and a higher grade of acting than usual for this kind of show. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Nothing on this futuristic landscape stands out: the performances, the dialogue, the direction, the special effects. The premise is solid enough. Yet everything constructed on this foundation seems to have been fashioned from nothing more substantial than cardboard. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Syfy's latest drama, Dominion, may be one of the dumbest, worst-acted, most poorly written series I've seen in ages. In no way should this encourage you to tune in hoping to rubberneck this bit of awfulness in hopes of creating some kind of new drinking game. Read full review

Of course it was cancelled after two season (often a mark of failure - here a symptom of greater ambition that TV screens at the time could accommodate). There was a petition by fans to renew it or at least complete it with a movie, but to be honest, even in its incomplete form, if you like theological fiction with an overlay of Manichean struggle (and martial arts sequences specifically developed to model the fighting style of angels who use their wings as extra limbs) - you owe it to yourself to watch Dominion.… Expand

Exceptional first episode. Like Game of Thrones but with some Christian angels thrown in and modern-day tech all in a dystopia. Shocking that nobody is talking about it. Will update when I get through the first season.
