I feel like once again, Dame Sylvia proved to be the dumbest in the episode. From last week(and end of the previous) she: -Got her husband fired. -Took his job. -Learned one of the kids was dead. -Learned her husband was missing. -Learned there was a containment breach in the lab. And she decided to take a nap, with the alarms going and armed officers flooding the facility. None of that changed from last episode. That's still all ongoing issues, but this week she: -Learned Yutani sent a strike force to infiltrate the island. -Is aware that a bigger force is on the way. -The facility is under complete lockdown. -The hybrids have revolted against the humans. -Theres a crazed Xenomorph on the loose wiping out entire squads of armed military personnel. And what is it she decides to do during all of this? It's time to go put flowers on the children's graves. Yep. Perfectly safe time to take a stroll, unprotected, outside the locked down facility, that had a containment breach of dangerous monsters, while it's actively under attack from both human and monster enemies. lol Like, why? Her scenes didn't even add anything. I don't recall her even having a speaking role this episode.

Overall 8/10 Very high production values, some great Alien moments, touched on a bunch of lore/unique concepts and did most well. Not everything lands but a great addition to the alien-verse which is already a mess in terms of lore so it fits in perfectly with bodybuilder aliens/black goo/bullet ricochets/cloned from blood 200 years later with Alien pregnancy intact My rankings Aliens Romulus Earth Alien Covenant Prometheus Resurection 3 This does highlight the issues with tv though. Tv now has movie budgets and movie wait times but at least movies offer concise stories that end the immediate plotline like as in alien Romulus but a sequel could fully happen. This ends with a cliffhanger and a hope for a season 2 which hasn't been greenlit yet, nevermind scripts and filming ... Copied to Clipboard!

In the end scene at that holding cell for all the captured villains, she said something like "Wendy, Darling....... if I did something wrong, I'm sorry" And then Wendy said she wasn't sorry or something and that "all you did was put 6 children in the ground" Which i take to mean Wendy now understands she isn't Marcy, just a copy of a dead girl's mind ...

And they made that finale banking on the idea that it would. Just hopefully it doesn't take a long time to pump out the next season. Alien: Earth was already conceptualized a long time ago and was only now released this year. I like the hybrid plotline and I think it fits in well with the whole Alien universe. It's just that I do think the xenomorph itself got a bit shafted in this show. At least the one that Prodigy created. It was basically no threat to any named character and slaughtered a bunch of nameless mooks. As for the show's other major alien species, they really struck gold with T. Ocellus. Problem with it was that it was locked in containment for the majority of the show and is only now free to actually start making a major impact. Overall, was a pretty entertaining show. I'll definitely be interested in more. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Instead, we got a full season build up hinting at it's intelligence, and all it does in this episode is act like any other monster mindlessly attacking humans. Saw someone somewhere else describe it well, this felt more like a mid-season finale than a season finale.

I liked it a lot. I think I enjoyed the first few episodes more, and the farther it got, the worse it got but its not that bad at all. at first I thought this was going to be a one off series, like Fargo was. Now that theyre making multiple seasons, this was the only way to salvage all of the good characters and get rid of the shitty ones. now if we can get the actors for Slightly and Smee to stop acting like 5 year olds we might be able to have a great show --- Big yellow joint big yellow joint I'll meet you down at the big yellow joint ...

The difference between a 5 year old and a 10 year old is massive. also Im really disappointed in the finale length.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Here's the thing...."setup" is well and good, but it also has to be balanced with some semblance of a good plot that advances the general conceit of the show. I don't think Alien Earth did that effectively. Like what we got was pure "Surf Dracula" to use the meme. I don't want to watch *eight hours* of setup. I want a good story that makes me want to continue to see what unfolds. --- Ring the bells that still can ring/Forget your perfect offering/There is a crack in everything/That's how the light gets in."- RIP, Leonard Cohen ...

I had a number of issues with the show, but if it was anything other then Alien I would give it a 7/10. That it's Alien knocks it down a lot, because it just completely sidelines the Alien as an actual threat and central focus. We were supposed to believe Aliens reaching Earth would be an existential threat in the old movies. Now it turns out they're just really strong attack dogs (but not that strong, a little kid in a robot body not designed for combat can solo it in melee combat). --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss ...

I guess I'm in the minority, because I really liked the season throughout, and thought that the finale was pretty good. maybe it's because I've never been into creature/stalker horror, but the horror elements in the franchise never resonated, for me. but as I got older, the corporation stuff in the background and the synths were pretty interesting (I still didn't like Prometheus or Alien: Covenant). with this season, we see how corporation stuff, transhumanism, and a potential new trajectory in human development, so I was cool with all of that, for the most part. if there's a season two, I hope there's some kind of significant time skip. --- Don't you agree, Zach? https://streamable.com/ueacaz ...

They really dropped the ball the last half of the season. This last episode was really bad imo. Visually cool at least and some cool gags, but the writing really went to shit. They'll probably give it as many seasosn as they want though cuz Noah Hawley is FX's main squeeze rn. I still enjoyed it but every character was really poorly written by the end of it. Shame.
