After Earth is torn apart by religious differences and the human race teeters on the edge of extinction, an atheistic android architect sends two of his creations, Mother and Father, to start a peaceful, godless colony on the planet Kepler-22b. 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. (HBO Max)

Raised by Wolves (2020)
Right from the beginning I got on this series’ vibe so I didn’t even mind its story line and the ending. Quite the opposite. Raised by the Wolves is one of the most typical of the contemporary standard sci-fi productions. The creators not only made the story about two androids, they even created a new planet with new rules and opened the doors for the premise of something not seen before. It is true that the episodes created by Ridley Scott are at the top level but the series loses some of the edge at the end. Nevertheless for the standards of contemporary sci-fi experiences, Raised by the Wolves is quite an uncommon piece, and therefore it deserves watching. Moreover there is not a premise more interesting that HBO Max could have used to find its way to the viewers.
