'Nightflyers': Despite unimpressive critic reviews, fans are convinced the series adaptation is everything they deserved

Going by reviews from eminent critics of both the sci-fi genre, and the novella, the show didn't quite come off as impressive. But fans don't seem to mind it one bit.

Despite all the gore, blood, and horror in his tales, any piece of literary work associated with the name George R. R. Martin spurs a force of excitement and thrill among many. So, naturally, when it was announced Jeff Buhler was going to present the 'Game of Thrones' maestro's 80's novella 'Nightflyers' as a tv-adaptation, speculation and anticipation peaked.

Would he be able to deliver the entirety of the Thousand Worlds with its characters both terrestrial and extraterrestrial in its rightful manner? Or would it be as disappointing as the cheesy film adaptation of the same name that came out in 1987? Almost at the brink of the show's end, fans will have you assured that this 'Nightflyers' is every bit the portrayal they had yearned for all this while.
