In Space, No One...

Retro futurism at its finest. Catode monitors, Mechanical controls everywhere. That late 70- early 80 vibe from every character pull trough verry well. Great addition to the Alien Universe of T. Ocellus. Also great pacing, firmly in touch with the Ridley Scott's Alien.

PS Kind of a miracle the crew survived 65 years in deep space, plus collecting specimens, with so gross incompetence and negligence.

Exhilarating! THIS is how to do an Alien show.

I'm still digesting but the best way to describe would be a super intense dose of 'Alien' injected directly into your veins.

This episode is a beautiful nod to the first movie. It works well to connect the story line but as can work as a stand alone episode.

Even managed to create the new creatures that are just as creepy as are of the other creatures. It'll definitely give people with eyeball sensitivities the heebee jeebees.

In an era of rehashing, redundant and repeatedly rebooting franchises this series has a new and refreshing feel reminiscent of the last predator film Prey. With relevant and current themes around tech and AI I really enjoyed the first few episodes as the characters are interesting and well cast.

The visuals and dialogue have been great and always on the edge of my seat on each episode and wanting the next one to come quicker to see where we are going next.

Franchise fan or new comer will enjoy and I look forward to seeing this become a series for many years to come with the richness of characters that could lead to intriguing sub plot stories.

While this show does have a few problems, it's written by the guy who created Fargo and Legion, 2 masterpieces of TV (only including the first 2 seasons of Fargo, not the whole show). A problem a lot of studios have these days is they hire completely inept writers to take over massive franchises, people that have no business being anywhere near them. Examples: Kathleen Kennedy for Star Wars, the Witcher show was an abomination, Rings of Power was garbage, and so many others, Harry Potter is probably next. This is not one of those situations. Noah Hawley is a legit top showrunner in the business.

So far Alien Earth has been pretty slow and there are some deficiencies in terms of the characters but overall it's definitely better than a lot of the haters are making it out to be. I think it's mainly a question of patience. If the show started out with episode 5 first and it grabbed people's attention right away the show would have more momentum but the payoff wouldn't have hit as hard so I prefer the way they structured the show. I'm confident the last 3 episodes are building up to blow everyone's minds. People don't have patience any more and I swear if Breaking Bad came out today it would be cancelled after 1 season because everyone would think it's slow and boring. The setup for the last part of the story is complete and I think Alien fans are in for a treat in the coming weeks.

Finally, a superb episode in Alien: Earth! We finally get to see what happened before the first episode, and honestly, this is the best installment of the new show so far.

Two things make it stand out: first, the events take place aboard a spaceship, and second, the episode is packed with non-stop references to earlier films in the franchise. There's a nod to almost every Alien movie, plus all the bizarre new creatures the show has introduced.

It's a formula similar to what Alien: Romulus (2024) used - and while some critics dismiss that as "picking the best parts from previous films and gluing them together," those proven elements undeniably hit home for fans. They certainly did for me.

Notably, while Romulus leaned more into Aliens (1986), this episode draws heavily from the original 1979 classic. For fans of the Alien saga, this episode is pure gold - it brings space back to space horror.
