Online discourse over the show did annoy me a bit. In their efforts to wave away a lot of the problems with the show's writing, it seemed to me that people online (most probably newbies to the Alien franchise) were trying to drag the first movie down in order to lift this show up. And none of those reasonings carried water. The show doesn't have the first movie's excuse of the character's being basically space truckers who were conned into their alien finding expedition through a very small print that was buried under pages and pages of legalese. The fact that those characters make crucial errors that lead to their deaths is understandable.

But the characters in this show were specifically sought out and employed to go out and find the alien creatures. When you take that on board, the various mistakes that these characters make, that are crucial to the events of the series progressing the way they did, become far more egregious and difficult to excuse. So yeah, a fun series with some interesting things to say. But not a masterpiece. Still, it's only a first series. And who knows how long it could run for. It could very well end up being a great piece of work by the time of the show's finale, providing it gets renewed.

Xenomorph as ''pets'' well tbh if you read the comics, you'd know the xenomorphs are loyal to someone known as Goddess who is a synthetic, so in a way i think Wendy/Marcy is this Goddess

and in terms of the Neverland staff

Spoiler:

i can see Kirsh switching sides from Kavalier to the Lost Boys, considering he never meant any harm to them or to the aliens, just interested in the alien creatures as a scientist, unlike Kavalier whom as already youngest trillionaire saw more profit in them

and

Spoiler:

i hope it gets renewed, because i want more from Eye Midge, who now is inside Arthur's corpse basically reanimating it, am curious if it now can talk and what it exactly has to say
