We finally got a Halo live-action series, and while fans have mixed feelings about the series, no one can deny the brilliant action and cast in the Paramount+ series. Halo the series is set in the 26th century and will be centered on the Master Chief, the world’s deadliest weapon and their greatest hope in the war with the Covenant (an alien race). While protecting a rebel group from the Covenant on planet Madrigal, Master Chief saves Kwan and also touches an object that seems to unlock his buried memories, and also makes him want to protect Kwan, even if it means going against him the orders given to him by the UNSC. Halo is currently in its second season and if you love the new batch of episodes and want some more similar sci-fi adventure then you might want to check out the shows listed below.

If I can categorize one sci-fi series as a hidden gem then The Expanse might be it for me. Based on a novel series of the same name by James S. A. Corey, the sci-fi series is set in a future where humanity has colonized the solar system.
