I've reblogged this before and I'm going to keep reblogging it until the end of time because this is my favourite show (equal favourites with the 100) and it deserves your love and viewership!

TV Show Recommendation: KILLJOYS

Frigging Killjoys!!! Watch Killjoys!! Watch it!!!

Okay so basically if you like scifi, like proper actual scifi, badass woc leads, great fight scenes, well placed humour, amazing plot, stunning visuals and an excellent cast then watch this show! I can not express my love for it enough <3

Okay, breaking it down….

This is team awesome force (left to right: John Jaqobis, D’avin Jaqobis and Dutch):

They are Reclamation agents, or RAC agents, or Killjoys (hence the title of the show). A Killjoy is an intergalactic bounty hunter, they are essentially a supposedly neutral party that works in and around the Quad which is run by the Company.

There are 5 Killjoy levels, the first 3 are generic jobs, 4 is a dead or alive warrant and a 5 is the highest level and a kill warrant.

This is the Quad.

The main planet is Qresh, it is where the elite, upper class citizens of the Quad reside, namely the 9 families who control the ruling company and essentially the whole Quad. 

Then there is Leith, one of Qresh’s three moons. It is a tranquil looking farming moon with the more middle class citizens inhabiting it. 

The 2nd moon is Westerley where our badass heroes spend most of their time when they aren’t in space, it isn’t nearly as nice and on it resides the labouring force of the Quad, the less well off residents. 

Lastly there’s Arkyn, but it is very much uninhabitable due to an error when terraforming. 

This is Dutch, the definite lead, she’s a gorgeous, smart, confident badass with a very troubled past that is one of the main focuses of the show. 

Dutch is played by the wonderful Hannah John-Kamen.

She’s the first and only ever Killjoy to start on level five, the highest and best level to be.

She very much asserts herself in charge and the boys know it.

Dutch may be flirty, but she could quite easily kill you in high heels.

These are the Jaqobis brothers, the other two members of team awesome force. 

This John Jaqobis.

John is played by Aaron Ashmore who you may know as the adorkable Jimmy Olsen (Smallville) or Steve Jinks (Warehouse 13)

Johnny is an adorable, dorky, perfect human being who is Dutch’s bff after he tried to steal her ship and she tried to shoot him in the crotch 6 years prior to the start of the series. Fun.

Trust me, this is the most platonic friendship on TV; they know everything about each other and would happily lay down their lives for each other but are in no way ever romantically involved.

Johnny is also a level 3 RAC agent.

Johnny also has a great sense of humour and is the definite cinnamon roll of the group. But if you hurt him, you face the wrath of both Dutch and his older brother.

This is D’avin Jaqobis

He’s played by openly gay actor Luke Macfarlane (Brothers and Sisters)  

D’av used to be a military man, left home for over 7 years and didn’t see Johnny once. When you first meet him he’s got a level 5 warrant out on him which Dutch and Johnny have to set right. 

D’av is definitely damaged, very protective and would do anything for his brother. 

He is also a level 4 Killjoy and also a total badass, they’re all total badass’.

Minor but still important characters:

This is Pawter, a stunning exciled Qreshe doctor who helps the team and is amazing in every single way.

This is Delle Seyah Kendry, of one of the 9 families.

She’s a manipulative, cunning, crafty Qreshe with definite hots for Dutch.

This is Alvis and his banter with D’av.

Alvis is a scar back monk with very deep resistance ties and a past with Dutch.

This Pree: very gay, very fabulous, very judging you. 

Pree owns the bar the Royale in Old Town in Westerley where the gang goes to drink. 

Pree is precious and must be protected at all costs.

This Khlyen, we don’t like Khlyen. 

Khlyen was Dutch’s tutor as a child, he’s a manipulative, possessive asshole. 

There is also Lucy, the sarcastic lovable systems computer on board their ship that totally has favourites (*cough* Johnny *cough*). 

Everybody loves Lucy.

This Clara, I’m only adding her because I love her, and Alice. 

She’s part woman, part machine, full badass.

This ended up a lot longer than I expected it to, but in short: 

WATCH KILLJOYS!!!
