I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

And then it felt like there were way too many commercial break cuts over the rest of the episodes that robbed it of some flow and cohesiveness.

The last scene with Mook/Munch was great but maybe a little too long. (That said, I don't know what I'd cut).

And that final shot...*chefskiss*

Here's hoping Noah's Weyland-Yutani series turns out to be season 6. They could tie in with season 2 by making the Alien pilot the UFO.

Watching this on Hulu without commercials was the right call. It meant waiting a day, but it was worth it.

Oh. I watched on Hulu and assumed most of those fades were intended to be artistic. That would have been a lot of ads.
