Ep1138: Say No More, Xenomorph: Alien Earth Ep 01/02 - Live Roundtable Review
In space, everyone can see you stream--and Earth's Mightiest Critics do just that with the latest sci-fi/horror TV show, Alien: Earth!
This series, set two years before the events of Ridley Scott's landmark 1979 film, Alien, follows an investigation into a deep space vessel that crashed into Earth, carrying weird and ultra-deadly creatures--including everyone's favorite long-domed, double-mouthed drool machine!
Will showrunner Noah Hawley bring the same shot-in-the-arm to Alien that he did to Fargo and Legion? Or is this doomed to be another synthetic rehash of a once-great premise?
Join us as we burst open the first two episodes of the F/X prequel series. We also take your questions, comments, and SuperChats!
And be sure to join us back here every Thursday night through September for more spoilerific livestreams!
