VorpalBunny posted:SO?! How did it end? I gave up in episode 3, even though the sci-fi touches were awesome. Did anything get resolved? Was this just a big, boring pile of wasted potential? Its not over yet, I think there are still 2 or 4 more episodes. Its basically 2 minutes of pretty interesting sci-fi ideas wrapped up in 38 minutes of "ummm... why are you doing this..." but its also quickly degenerating into some sorta monster from space movie too. Spoiler on whats happened so far So evil corporation goes off to find Unobtanium in asteroids, which also extends life I guess? Alien entity is found out there and drives people crazy and gets space girls pregnant. Evil corp leaders dangle Hallie Berry as bait, she gets pregnant, they steal babby from her and try to cover it up. Babby can mind control people and put people into delusional states where anything they want happens, sort of like Grand Theft Auto. Babby's immediate goal has been to steal his mom's space password, probably to download space porn. We have yet to see what space baby looks like, all we have seen is its doggie vision. Also some poo poo is going down with Terminator baby and Australian John Conner who wants to destroy all toasters, but the parents of baby Terminator spend more time with their coffee mugs than the T-1000. Its not good. Its not mind numbingly bad, but just barely skirts the line above it. Every character seems to be degenerating quickly into "I'M GOING TO DO THE DUMBEST THING POSSIBLE NOW". On the plus side, every time you ask yourself "Wait... why did that guy just do that..." the answer is always:

Xenoborg posted:Its not the best show ever, but its entertaining enough that I'll keep watching if they keep making it. same. Its about equal to Falling Skies I'd say in quality, so if you really hate that show you'll hate Extant. Its better than Under the Dome (I assume season 2 didn't get any better) or Helix. I think them burning 2 episodes at a time though doesn't bode too well for a renewal, and the ratings seem pretty blah with it coming in last for its time slot the last few weeks. The plot has settled into a pretty formulaic and predictable story though so not gonna miss a lot if it doesn't get renewed. I expect season 1 to end on a cliffhanger unfortunately. This weeks episode is the season finale.
