roflz @ the "twists" in the last couple eps - looks like we'll get a little "V" action with the earth plotline

I was briefly interested in the earth plotline when they had that "first contact" sort of sequence. Honestly I was wondering if they were going to go 2001 or Solaris with that and they kinda did the latter I guess. Absolutely hate all of the cast in the earth plotline though, they are all terrible.

five months pass...

GF has been watching this the last several days (and I have been able to read a fairly dense book on the couch next to her while also keeping up with basically everything happening onscreen. Shakey's review otm:

Some things about this are good, other things are v bad. […]

My going theory is that they quickly added a bunch of swears after the CW declined to pick up the show. I appreciate, if nothing else, their willingness to ruthlessly dispatch their chiseled mid-20s castmembers only to pull a replacement (and they even just straight-up call them replacements) out of cold storage five minutes later.

Is this camp? I think it might be camp.

haha watching Ad Astra last night made me think of this (which I had totally forgotten about)

Yeah, I figured I should get my thoughts down as quickly as possible since it's been like twelve hours since I last watched it and I don't expect it to linger in my memory much beyond that.

I think it qualifies as camp, would probably watch a second season

Yeah, can't believe they renewed this but not Tuca & Bertie, The OA, Daybreak etc
