But that’s like saying Dune is about giant worms. This show is original, imaginative and completely bat shit insane. It follows no rules and god bless it for that. I tune in every week without a clue what it’s going to toss at me.After Earth is torn apart by religious differences and the human race teeters on the edge of extinction, an atheistic android architect sends two creations - Mother and Father - to start a peaceful, godless colony on the planet Kepler-22b. From executive producer Ridley Scott, Raised by Wolves follows Mother and Father as they attempt to raise human children in this mysterious virgin land - a treacherous and difficult task that's jeopardized by the arrival of the Mithraic, a deeply devout religious order of surviving humans. As the androids make contact with this zealous and dangerous people, they struggle to control the beliefs of their fiercely self-determining children.
It’s not for everyone. It’s more like the science fiction movies of the late 60s and early 70s, or like a Bradbury science fiction/dark fantasy tale. It can be jarring to those who go in expecting the usual tropes of the genre, or prefer a more grounded story.
