I'm quite enjoying it

Visually, I think they did a great job although the retro future where things are incredibly advanced but then also behind the times is a little jarring in 2025 even if it is consistent with Alien. Writing aside, think some of the performances have been good, the people playing Kirsh and Morrow are excellent. In the wider franchise, it's the least s**t thing that's been made compared to everything after Aliens, I hope they get another series.

I'd still watch episode 5 which shows how the creatures got out (questionable decision making at every turn) and even if a bit dumb is quite a fun 60 minutes.
