Season 1 Review:
Put simply, it’s the purest expression of the classic 1960s science fiction allegories of Clarke, Amisov, and Walter Miller Jr.: show us the inevitable destruction of mankind in the unimaginably far future, and dramatize its last gasps at survival. It may not be for everyone, but if you like your sci-fi more thoughtful than spectacular, Raised by Wolves is ready to scratch that itch.

Season 1 Review:
Raised by Wolves has the potential to be the first great sci-fi show of the ’20s. Visually stunning, technically marvelous, and trippy as hell, it feels like both a callback to the golden era of sci-fi and a template for what the genre could be in this century. Raised by Wolves is a must-watch for sci-fi devotees and a return to early career form for Sir Ridley Scott.

Season 1 Review:
A welcome dose of high-quality science fiction. ... Even when “Raised by Wolves” gets bogged down by its frenetic plots and a frigidly brutal vision of what lies ahead, the show seems exactly right about one thing: A whole new world should totally feel like a whole new world — from the untouched grit beneath one’s boots to a complete reordering of right and wrong. That’s the point of breaking free.

Season 1 Review:
“Raised by Wolves” is at its best when it allows Scott and the directors that follow him to dig into the issues, but it lacks in departments like storytelling, mythology, and world-building. It feels like a sketch for a show, waiting to come together into something denser and more engaging.

Season 1 Review:
The series struggles to fill its time with meaningful development, and far too quickly abandons its frank nature for time-hopping twists and unfulfilling jargon. Worst of all, after the big, lavish spectacle seen in the first few episodes, “Raised by Wolves” ends up feeling small.

Season 1 Review:
It's more than possible that the momentum of that first episode might be enough to carry some viewers — fans of evasive-yet-ponderous hard sci-fi — through the series. I found the next five episodes a study in diminishing returns, the breathtaking aesthetic fading with Scott and Wolski's baton-passing after the second episode and the overall world of the show becoming less and less compelling with each contrived plot point and thinly sketched new character. With nobody and nothing to really care about, I'll probably skip the season's last four episodes.

For me this show is 10 out of 10. I can understand the negative reviews, because this show is not for everyone, but if you're a sci-fi fan, this show will open a new dimension for you. Can't wait for 2nd season.

I watched 5 episodes and can honestly say that so far it is the best tv episodes in 2020! Highly recommended. Brilliant!

Besides political propaganda implemented because otherwise it won't be possible to create any movie - this series is great. Scott loves stories about human origin and future. Great stuff. Recommended.

I do not know what "specialists" should be employed and who approved the script to spoil a good series with one scene in the last episode.
