Rent Starhyke: Series 1 (2009)

By the year 3034, the human race has suppressed all forms of emotion. So when the Reptids (the last remaining alien race in our galaxy) threatens to release a weapon to reawaken them, it's up to Captain Blowhard (Claudia Christian, Babylon 5) and her increasingly inept crew to travel back in time to stop them from changing the past and altering our future forever. Now plagued by uncontrollable emotions, the crew of the Nemesis find not-so practical ways of coping, whilst Dr Striker (Jeremy Bulloch) looks for a cure in the most unusual places.

Starhyke: Series 1 review by GavinK

Appalling - Star Tripe

This show is utterly appalling – watch it only if you want to be entertained by a constant stream of idiotic one-liners and a pathetic attempt to extract a gag (make you gag?) at every word and movement in the show. Sure there’s a plot, and if the writers had tried a little harder and not given in to letting every contributor get away with inserting their half-baked, ill-conceived humour, they may have made a reasonable show. What on earth is this trend for utter drivel? Even a vegetable would switch its own life support off rather than endure this. We watched the first disc of (thankfully) only 2 episodes. No more. Never again. I’d rather watch paint dry. Unfortunately this rubbish will probably attain cult status. I guess humanity is devolving faster than we realise. For heaven’s sake shoot the writers before they get the chance to have another go.
