Killjoys is annoying pop trash that barely deserves to be called sci-fi.
Watching this show as an adult just feels like having to watch a kids show. There is just no cliché they left out and it's full of bad copies of a thousand things you've already seen. Imagine a network boss saying to a filmmaker who just graduated from film school: "build some halfway decent sets, put some action scenes in them and do some closeups of people talking to each other. And yeah... do something with flashbacks like they did in "lost", you know, back stories and stuff."
The pilot makes it really hard for me to care about anything or anyone at all in this show. Poor dialogue, a cheesy 90s-pseudo sci-fi pop soundtrack and a mediocre camera work in a cheap video look put this show below average of how sci-fi should look and feel in the year 2015. Prepare to be a witness to a lot of silly stuff that makes you angry. In fact, I had to turn it off right in the middle of the pilot when a shooting scene takes place and the female character comes walking in a fancy dress, ready to kick some ass - all in slow motion of course, since we want all clichés on board. That was all of a chance I am willing to give this show.
All in all it's nothing but annoying and pretty painful to watch. Go out and buy some new shoes! It'll be more fun than this. You will at least make use of your brain for a bit. This show should be canceled asap.
score 1/10
