I'm good. I won't be watching more John Halo episodes. They should have made it a non Halo story instead of shoehorning a non-Halo story into the Halo universe.

All they had to do was adapt Halo: Reach. that's it. You want someone the audience can relate to? easy, Noble Six. Coulda literally made that character be anyone because that's who they are when we play, anyone. you can make it a season or two and gradually one after one the Noble Team kicks the bucket until the end where you can have your nice little reveal of the Master Chief.

For people who played it'll be neat for them because they know what's coming and have to relive that emotional roller coaster. For people who didn't? it'll be shocking and again an emotional roller coaster. You even have the history with Halsey and all that thrown in.

I mean the mainline Halo story goes off the rails eventually anyways but they literally had an easy layup with just adapting Halo: Reach. Hell coulda just done an ODST show.
