    Storyline

    Edit
    Set in the year 2093, Nightflyers is a psychological thriller that follows a team of scientists aboard the Nightflyer, the most-advanced ship ever built, as they embark on a journey to find other life forms. Their mission takes them to the edge of the solar system, and to the edge of insanity, as they realize true horror isn't waiting for them in outer space: it's already on their ship. —ahmetkozan

    • Trivia
      Showrunner Jeff Buhler told Irish-born Eoin Macken to use an American accent but told the rest of the cast to talk with their normal accents.
    • Goofs
      In the curved passageway that's supposed to be one of the centrifugal rings, camera angles try to make it look like a person is always perpendicular to the deck. Several times when the actors are far away from the camera and standing farther up on the curved ramp, closeups show lines on the wall behind them, lines which are perpendicular to the deck, are not parallel with the actors, who are actually in Earth's gravity.

    In space, no one can hear you be an idiot
    Chock full of dumb characters making dumb decisions, NIGHTFLYERS aims to go where no one has gone before...in making us want to pull our hair out.

    The mission: an intrepid group of explorers has set out from Europa to rendezvous with an alien craft in space. You'd think a mission of this importance would require a crew of top-notch scientists and seasoned spacefarers. Not here. We get a crew of ding-dongs who wouldn't pass a psych eval. Add in a belligerent tool of a telepath whose sole job--wait for it--is to communicate in a friendly manner with the aliens, and you have a recipe for disaster.

    Not long after launch, the mission goes sideways with weirdness. The captain knows all along why this is happening. Does he do anything about it? Say anything? Perform any corrective action? Nope. He pretends like he's ignorant instead of heading back to port because reasons. Oh, and the series opens with a murdery death scene far into the story that wipes out any worry for the characters shown because we know how they end up. Yay.
