"Morning Shoe" sounds like an early era Tom Waits song.

Re: Apple TV+
I really want to like this, and will continue, but I feel like the first 3 episodes could’ve been 1-1.5 episodes. The character development isn’t good enough for us to be almost 3 hours in and they’re still kind of setting the stage. I’m a sucker for this type of stuff tho, so I’m hooked either way.E.H.

Yeah we’ll see where the next one goes. I’m most intrigued with the soldier’s story and the family in New York. But now I’m curious about the ending with that Japanese girl last episode

This week's episode was more of the same, although we caught a split second of what I assume is an alien.Rob wrote:I really want to like this, and will continue, but I feel like the first 3 episodes could’ve been 1-1.5 episodes.

Also, I wish more of you were watching Foundation. It is fantastic. Almost like The Expanse with a bigger budget.
