Departure centers on the shocking disappearance of Flight 716. Kendra Malley (Panjabi), the recently widowed, brilliant aviation investigator, is called in by her former boss and mentor Howard Lawson (Plummer) to investigate the mysterious crash. With the whole world watching, Kendra and her team race to pinpoint the missing aircraft and locate possible survivors. They must battle through a host of suspects and motives - pilot suicide, terrorism, politically motivated murder, systems failure - to determine what really happened, and to stop it from happening again.
Just found this in the comments of the trailer you posted: "Okay so I spoke with TJ Scott (the director) and he said: "It has aired in some parts of Europe and the UK already but will air in North America in the new year." It will be a 6-part mini-series." - Jude Samson
Ah, that could explain the low number of ratings. :)

yeah, that befuddles me as well. There has been absolutely no marketing done for this show, at least on the platforms I frequent. And it's not like this is a low budget show either.

Thanks! The trailer shows some good actors. What I don't get: it ended almost 2 months ago and still has less than 300 IMDb ratings.

I'm not sure if it's me or the general quality has improved but I've really started to enjoy UK and Canadian shows.
Only six episodes but it maintains a decent pace and it packs a really good cast.
Season 2 - 0/10 :facepalm:
