If it was unacceptable even at the time, it's not dissonant


* ValuesDissonance: In the final episode, Ponti breaks into Smith's and tries to rape her. She is rescued and he's sent back to his quarters. The next day, Caulder declares that "nothing very serious happened" and that Ponti apologised, so the whole thing is swept under the rug, with Smith saying nothing.

* SoBleakItsBoring: Generally believed to be the reason the series lasted as briefly as it did. Much of it consisted of directionless conflict among the main cast, a problem that was made worse by the claustrophobic setting and general aura of hopelessness. The creators sacrificing story for scientific accuracy probably didn't help either.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: The series was criticized for its cheap-looking props and sets. [[RealityIsUnrealistic Ironically]], this was caused by efforts to be as realistic as possible; it is much more difficult to create a realistic-looking rocket, spacesuit, and whatnot than to simply use a salt shaker as a futuristic device.
