New Frontier was a popular science-fiction series that aired on the ABC network between 2015 and 2018, starring Stuart Sykes as the lead character. The show was set in the year 2064, in a world that had changed significantly due to technological advancements and disasters.

The plot revolved around Stuart's character, who was a former astronaut and the captain of a spaceship called the New Frontier. The ship had been designed to take a crew of people to a nearby star system, with the hope of finding a habitable planet for humanity to colonize. However, something went wrong on the mission, and the crew ended up being stranded in space, far from home.

The show followed Stuart and the other crew members as they tried to survive in space, dealing with the challenges of isolation, limited resources, and the psychological effects of being cut off from Earth. Along the way, they encountered strange phenomenon and alien life forms, which added to the tension and drama of the show.

One of the key themes of New Frontier was the impact of technology on society, both in terms of the benefits it could bring and the dangers it posed. The show explored issues such as artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, and virtual reality, and raised questions about how far humanity should go in pursuing technological advancement.

Another important element of the show was the relationships between the characters, and how they developed over time. Stuart's character had a complex backstory, including a troubled marriage and a daughter back on Earth, which added depth to his portrayal. The other crew members, including a scientist, a medic, and a mechanic, also had their own personal struggles and motivations, which were gradually revealed as the series progressed.

Overall, New Frontier was a well-crafted and engaging series that appealed to fans of science-fiction and character-driven dramas alike. The show tackled complex themes and issues with intelligence and nuance, while also delivering thrilling action and suspense. Stuart Sykes's performance as the lead character was especially compelling, and helped to anchor the show's emotional core. While the show only ran for three seasons, it left a lasting impact on audiences and continues to be remembered fondly by fans of the genre.
