Yeah that sounds about right. No one in my close friend or family circle knew about it. I tried to tell some people to watch it but no one did. The show didn't have much marketing behind it and it seemed like HBO didn't really care to prop it up much to begin with. Hard original sci-fi is a tough sell which is unfortunate because it's often the most rewarding and entertaining.

I find this very surprising. Hard original sci-fi is in such short supply that all sci-fi fans jump on whatever is available.

The usual arguments by studio heads are about the larger budget, not the popularity.
