It’s the slow, creeping rot eroding modern civilization.

QOTSA! Song for the Dead. Is the Queen in the title a reference for the Alien Queen?

Good shit. Loved the hints of the Aliens colonial marines score during the xeno attack.

QotSA always works.

Why did the Seals just drop their masks into the ocean? How are they getting back?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Can the eye alien live/operate in a synth or droid though? I figured they would put it in her brother. I can't wait to see what it has to say.

I have to admit that some of the writing was a little wacky in E7.

Morrow displayed superior intelligence all season and then started doing mega silly shit all of a sudden. Entering the facility through the front door? Really?

Why are the Weyland SEAL teams wearing black in a jungle setting during broad daylight? And, as B said, why ditch the masks?

Where did the boys get the raft? Wtf?

Where did the hundred Prodigy soldiers come from?

Still, it wasn't all bad. There were some gnarly kills.

Forgot to mention the unsettling breathing sound effects with the face hugger. They somehow managed to make that thing even scarier.

This show is up and down for me, but some of my favorite stuff are things like this where the xenomorph starts to invade domestic, earthly spaces (and not in a kill-everything-around-it way) and it’s just unsettling, not scary. Gives us something we’ve never seen before. The fact that he was just under a bed was just creepy.

Yep, I was thinking near the same thing during that scene. A literal monster under the bed.

I was holding out hope that this was going to be more of an anthology series, and I guess it still could kind of be, but it definitely seems like they’re setting it up to be a straight continuation next time.

I thoroughly enjoyed it aside from the corny moments like:
Spoiler: show
Wendy telling Boy to "run". I mean, come on!
Also, The Bear already claimed that song. Mix it up a little, surely.

1.FUCK YEAH

2. PISSED they’re making us wait to hear from Eye.

This season was far from perfect and it’s a lot of empty calories but I enjoyed the hell out of it.

I mean, it’s kind of the perfect song for this show. You want Love Boat Captain?
