Judgment Day

Best episode so far? Maybe the best in the entire series as im writing it after finishing the entire season!

Episode four delivers a rollercoaster of thrills and twists as the characters goes into a somewhat dangerous mission to get back some important info.

The tension is rising, the characters are facing moral decisions and unexpected challenges along the way.

With the fast pacing action and a great narrative, this episode keeps us on the edge of our seats, waiting to see what unfolds next.

Overall, It's a great episode that leaves a lasting impact, setting the stage for even more exciting developments in the series.

The suspense as the "antagonist" explained the predicament humanity is now up against is simply goosebumps inducing. I think every human who is familiar with the Fermi paradox and the idea that humanity for all intents and purposes could exist in a petri dish, felt seriously uneasy during that sequence. That something, real, is manipulating reality to their own benefit, and that quite literally, we would be unable to stop it.

It's kind of scary, I would put that sequence in the same genre of Horror, because it was just that terrifying as it is something that could very well be real, and the most scary things in the world, are what's real.

This is ironic given the amount of scientific inaccuracies the series has thus portrayed, but this series isn't a science lecture, it's a fictional piece of media. So despite the 2 dimensional characters and other issues, this episode deserves a 10/10 for that sequence alone.

I don't know how different it is than book and if the book did a great job in explaining things or how the creators took liberty and changes things.

Still, this ep couldn't be any better. The answer of all questions with a declaration of war is the best conclusion of the book. The visuals are amazing and the storyboarding of this ep is just brilliantly done.

As I said, it is not the best but definitely one of the best ep of the year. The series didn't disappoints especially when compare to recent sci-fi shows.

I like the series so far now and this ep is just unexpectedly better what I haven't expecting.

Genius!

So here we are. The scientists have a way of destroying things with Auggie's invention. It is used to wipe out a mother ship, filled with all manner of persons, including children. The point of this is that these people are a connection to the alien species that is going to invade the planet. But when push comes to shove, the leadership has no clue as to what they are dealing with. The aliens have built and rebuilt, as the woman on the destroyed landscape points out. They need the earth and in order to get it must neutralize it by getting rid of its science. The now unleash that power which is to frighten the earth's population into inactions. The enemy now becomes those who will go after their own people. Very interesting. I'm really surprised at the naysayers who have expressed disdain for a show that is pushing boundaries.

When I heard that this show was directed by the same guys who worked on Game Of Thrones and given the fact that I've never read the book, I decided to give it a try...

Half way though the show I decided to stop watching because it really bored me (characters not relatable, too many mysteries and a predictable plot) until the moment I finished this episode. I have never seen a sci-fi plot bring all the important pieces together with such precise timing and scientific accuracy like I've just witnessed just witnessed.

Now I'm not sure if I'll be able to take my eyes off a screen until I'm done watching how the whole story unfolds.
