    Alien: Earth

    Restarting since the last one is gone. The first three episodes have been enjoyable and look forward to the development of Wendy, her brother, and Prodigy.

    They've done a great job of showing the Xenomorph’s carnage.

    I love this show. I've been a fan of the franchise since watching the original at the cinemas when I was 8. My parents didn't keep us from much growing up.

    I like the direction this show is going in showing us other dangerous lifeforms and not just the Xenos. The synthetics, hybrids, and cyborgs all have unique stories and abilities that add a twist to the mythology we haven't seen before either. With 5 episodes left, it's fixin' to get even more frantic. So far so good.

      Great episode last night. Knowing that Kirsh has been listening to Slightly and Morrow's conversations has me wondering if he'll let their plan unfold because I feel he doesn't like Boy Kavalier. But at what cost? Nowhere in the Alien canon have we heard of Prodigy, only Weyland and Yutani.

      Wendy's story is broadening. Will she use her symbiotic relationship to save her Brother? The mother-like relationship she has has me baking up all kinds of theories about her end game.

      I think the coolest organism in this show has got to be the eye midge. That thing is creepy as all get out. Also, when it attacked Nibs a few episodes back, she hasn't been the same. I can't get enough of this show. It's extremely well done, IMO.

        Yeah, its been a while since a show has hooked me like this one. I was thinking last night that this is only episode 4, seems like a lot of newer shows don't have this much action/story in 10 episodes. Lots of interesting ways this can go, hope the momentum keeps up.

          Usually not a big fan of flashback episodes, but still enjoyed it. The brief moment of the squid eye and Xenomorph was fun. Kind of expect it to get crazier knowing Prodigy was behind it all.

            Great episode except for one nitpick. The Xeno was the fakest looking one I have seen yet. When it's running around causing mayhem it's what we've always watched. When it was standing there walking it was obviously a man in a suit. It was laughable. Outside of that this was my favorite episode so far. Morrow is my favorite character in this show and it's not even close. He was basically Ripley in this episode that felt like a mini movie. We got to see his backstory a bit that showed a lot of good in him. I thought he was going to turn out to be one of the villians but I'm not so sure now.

              They’re setting us up for a wild ending. It’s fun getting to see the various aliens wreck mayhem.

              I got a crazy theory in my head with Yutani and Predators.

                Very interesting episode. Really wondering what the endgame will be for Kirsh. Boy Genius and the squid eye will be a match made in hell.

                  I didn’t realize episode 8 was the end of the season, thought it was 10 for some reason. Overall, I really enjoyed the show but found that ending to be too corny.

                    During the off season, you can get your squid eye fix on CSPAN.

                      I had to catch up on episodes 6 & 7 before I watched 8. It was a decent enough season finale but had a lot of flaws. The show as a whole started out great but started missing the mark a bit by episode 6 though there were good moments. Haven't heard about a season 2.

                        I have enjoyed this one.

                        It hasn't been AS predictable as many shows are these days.

                          Although, Wendy was responding to the wuss brother of hers at one point and she and I answered him with the exact same dialogue- "No, you're food to them."

                          My wife turns to look at me and says; "Did you write the script?"
