This could be interesting

Given the recent successes of other original content series of late this has a lot of potential I think.

I was a bit under the weather yesterday (no doubt to being in the rain most of Saturday) and ended up watching quite a bit of stuff on Netflix (though most of it was TNG hahah)

I'm just about finished with "Odyssey 5" on Netflix; although there have certainly been moments very cringe-worthy or "Canadian" (and at times not aged well, being from the early 2000s), I've also enjoyed some pretty good scifi-thriller storytelling -- a handful of times I felt as engaged as entertained as I did with The X-Files at its best. Would be really cool if Netflix considered a Jericho-like short season to resolve the series and its conflicts/mysteries (I'm not done viewing yet, but since it ran only one season, and considering its ambitious premise, well I presume there is coming up a cliffhanger season finale with plenty of loose ends that of course will now never get tied up, ala Space:Above&Beyond).

Early seasons? If so, speaking of cringe-worthy...
