Helix is the stoned college sophomore of television: full of weighty philosophical notions and fun ideas, but no clue how to explain them or execute its plans. Read full review

Just sit back and be surprised. What the Helix! Love that the show doesn't take itself too seriously. It's not supposed to be an award winning, ground breaking, tv landscape shifting show. Its purpose is to entertain. Let your mind slip away and buy into what they are presenting, and itJust sit back and be surprised. What the Helix! Love that the show doesn't take itself too seriously.

Consider this a guilty pleasure of mine.
If you made the most brilliant tv show ever but it was about golf it would be hard to muster energy to even watch ep1, this is the reverse its exactly what i wanted but they just cant seem to execute it.

Still rocking the mix of action and elevator music. I am enjoying the different feel to the series, which has followed on from the 1st series but has changed to a move sedate pace.

The use of now and 30 years in the future allows you to see what will happen but not how it will happen.Still rocking the mix of action and elevator music. I am enjoying the different feel to the series, which has followed on from the 1st series but has changed to a move sedate pace.

Still solid acting by the cast.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'd probably give it a better rating if this was a new show and a different genre. But it isn't. All arcs are completely thrown out of the window and replaced by new ones. The whole plot is thrown away. The choice of location is complete plot armor. The greatest character of the first season is ruined by replacing his arc and letting him die for no good reason. A great disappointment.… Expand

The fear and horror of season 1 of Helix has been dropped for season 2 with its mixture of time travel and conspiracy theories. The series is no longer frightening and no longer interesting.

The first two episodes were very promising, with the uncommon time element they introduced. But it's the same directionless drivel it was a season ago. Syfy attracts only low caliber writers.

Descending into the realms of B grade horror removing whatever SyFi was there upon premise. Presto we now has a Helix, or genetically modified DNA

Dialogue and any science displayed have been ripped off a cracker box, totally bonkers. I watched episode 2 of season2, it had me in stitches.Descending into the realms of B grade horror removing whatever SyFi was there upon premise. Presto we now has a Helix, or genetically modified DNA

Dialogue and any science displayed have been ripped off a cracker box, totally bonkers. I watched episode 2 of season2, it had me in stitches. Immortally pregnant, or pregnant immortally, suffering everlasting morning sickness, I dunno your the Doc? Meanwhile smoking way too much Pol Pot making those fields look trivial on an island a couple hundred miles off the US coast. All because they are an evil cult who cultivate apples that further sprout into zombies. Seriously what am I watching other then a joke?… Expand
