No Men Beyond This Point (2015)

In an alternate reality, women give birth to women without the help of men.

'No Men Beyond This Point' is a mockumentary with an interesting idea. Intelligently constructed, it manages to show the humor and contradictions of several points of view.

Director:  Damian Kindler   
With: Patrick Gilmore, Bronwen Smith, Tara Pratt

Rating: 7/10

Travelers (2016–2018)

Agents from an apocalyptic future are sent into the past, into the consciousness of those about to die, in an attempt to repair humanity's fate.

'Travelers' is a sci-fi series with an idea that has some merit. It generally goes by a "case of the week" style, but from time to time it tries to revolutionize the audience with original content in variations on the theme of temporal paradoxes. Interesting until the end, even with the rushed (by cancellation) finale.

Director:  Andy Mikita and others   
Production:  Netflix   
Creator:  Brad Wright  
Duration:  3 seasons of 10-12 episodes (45 minutes each)   
With: Eric McCormack, MacKenzie Porter, Nesta Cooper, Jared Abrahamson, Patrick Gilmore
