"Extinct" TV Series

400 YEARS AFTER THE EXTINCTION OF THE HUMAN RACE, a small group of humans are revived by an alien civilization. The aliens claim they want to restore the human species, but the &"reborn” humans uncover new dangers, hidden agendas and powerful secrets that challenge that claim and threaten to annihilate the human race all over again.
Welcome to Extinct, a new, original, sci-fi series written exclusively for BYUtv by Ender’s Game author and science-fiction legend Orson Scott Card and The New York Times bestselling author Aaron Johnston. Premiering on BYUtv on October 1, 2017, the series is about second chances, everlasting love, family, and commitment to doing the right thing even under difficult and life-threatening conditions.
In Extinct, a colony of revived humans, the Reborns, attempt to understand and trust a group of mysterious, peaceful and highly advanced aliens known as the Originators who brought them back to life following the extinction of humankind by evil aliens called The Kariks. The Reborns are guided by Drones who are the face and voice of The Originators and help to guide and protect the Reborns throughout their fight against both the Kariks and the parasitic Skin Riders who take control of a &"host” or person’s cognitive abilities, to restore the human race and end the alien threat that drove mankind to extinction.
