Info

First Wave is a Canadian/American science fiction television series, filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, that aired from 1998 to 2001 on the Sci-Fi Channel. The show was created by Chris Brancato, who co-wrote an early version of the script for the seminal X-Files episode "Eve". Francis Ford Coppola was executive producer on the show. In an unusual move, the Sci-Fi Channel picked up the series on a 66-episode contract. The show was subsequently canceled once the contract expired at the end of the third season due to disappointing ratings.

First Wave Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
wdfreeman This was perhaps the worst show I have ever seen in my life. The only other shows to even come close were Battlestar Galactica and Babylon 5. In fact, mentioning this show should be illegal. It was so badly, that I felt compelled to register for this website merely to complain about how much I hat "First Contact." Seriously. It was truly terrible. If you value your sanity or your time, don't watch it. F.F.C. ought to be ashamed of himself for insulting our intelligence with this show. Not even Alf was this bad. I can't believe I ever wasted a minute of my life watching it, especially since that is time that I shall never be able to get back. There is not a single redeeming quality in this show. This is why they canceled it after its original contract. I can't believe they even let it go that far. I wish I had a time machine so that I could go back and prevent it from having been made, perhaps even conceived.
nicky811121 From the very first episode I got addict to this wonderful show!It is intelligent and thoughtful,it didn't rely on special effects,it had great actors which were perfect for their characters,especially Sebastian Spence and Rob La Belle.They are wonderful as Cade and Eddie and they make their characters believable. The show was SUPERB and I want to see First wave movie! :)
lonewolf89 I loved this show! Eddie and Cade were great together, an interesting match up. The plot was excellent, and the episodes were believable. Joshua was a cool character. He good as a bad guy and a good guy. Jordan was the only person that I didn't like, she got on my nerves. Over all, First Wave is great, definitely worth watching.
fubared1 One of the worst so-called sci-fi shows ever. Coppola should be ashamed. And when they added former porn queen Traci Lords, it became a total joke. Nostradamus is definitely doing somersaults in his grave. This one will not be missed. Geared for moronic, sex-crazed teens only.
