I found the alien segment with Lisa and David boring. I don't understand why so many media figures keep talking about how brilliant it was and one of the highlights of the show. Why?

It contained no struggle, the challenge while potentially interesting, didn't really make for good TV. Yes its ironic that they are there out there but can't be known, however it simply was not entertaining. It was dull in fact.

I think they say it was great because it was such a "feel good" episode, but as far as actual entertainment value goes, it contained very little. No suspense, no conflict, nothing.
