Threshold (2005–2006)
7/10
Decent Brannon Braga show, oddly enough
4 May 2013
I hate Brannon Braga as a Star Trek writer. His post Enterprise work along with Star Trek alum Brett Spiner however does not suck. Carla Gugino is a good actress and very beautiful unlike Jolene Blalock who was just pretty. Peter Dinklidge, the only reason Game of Thrones is good (yes I said that) shows he was cool before GoT had him on. Brett Spiner is well, not Data but still good. Nobody seems to be a bad actor, The premise is cliché but in a good way, despite the usual Brannon Braga idiocy at times. Good actors can win over a bad script and Threshold proves this. It getting prematurely canceled is sadly typical for science fiction in this era, especially good series. I wish they had a second season as I am partial to Catherine Bell, an actress who like Carla Gugino is gorgeous as well as decent when it comes to acting joining the cast like what was planned.

Overall Threshold is a clichéd sci fi drama that is saved by great acting and worth at least looking into.
