Set in the middle of the 21st century after three decades of alien races arriving on the planet, the series follows local sheriff Nolan, his adopted alien daughter Irisa, and the town's new mayor, Amanda Rosewater as they coexist over the partially re-built ruins of St. Louis.
Defiance is not just a smart, well-crafted TV show with a good cast and an adventurous flavor, it's also indisputably science fiction, which is a relief.
I am engaged by the show's lively metaphor for a polyglot culture fractured by tribalism and Otherness, for a world that can easily put aside past pain and present differences to tackle a common threat.
Overall, I'm very pleased with the pilot; the show has done a good job of telling an engaging story IN the future without it being entirely about the future.
