I personally thought season 1 started off strong. I enjoyed episodes 1-5 the most. Eps. 6-8 didn't always hold my intrigue level as much as the previous episodes. While the show slowed down in ways for the later episodes, it also got a little 'messy'. And while that was visually appealing on screen, it was not as well received personally in terms of the story. I started forming a bit of disinterest in Wendy and Joe, her brother, in the last two episodes. That being said, I thought this was a good starting season for Alien: Earth.
I'm hoping that it gets a second season, so we can further see these mega corps go head to head with one another. Plus the ending left me actually wanting to see how far Wendy and the other synths will go and what possible trade offs they might make along the way.
Interesting how perspectives can vary.
I didn't like it straight away and gave up after Episode 03 (tried to give it a chance). From the comments I've seen, the severe problems present in the first three episodes only got worse later on.
I watched ep 4 last night and I thought it was very boring. The story is interesting but they take a lot of time to build up stuff that don't deliver. The episode could have been an email. I'll probably keep watching tho
