I wonder if this is supposed to be some kind of alternate history too seeing as they're using a real, old religion.

Although you have to wonder how a sun based religion changes in a different star system.

I assume they're just on the back and any time they would be shown they're just digitally erased.

I've noticed a lot of allusions to Medusa with mother. The cornrows remind me of snakes, her stare causing instant death and the prisoner entering what they thought was her lair with a mirror shield.

Also her fake name was Lamia

Also: holy poo poo
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamia

quote:

in ancient Greek mythology, was a woman who became a child-eating monster after her children were destroyed by Hera, who learned of her husband Zeus's trysts with her. Hera also afflicted Lamia with sleeplessness so she would anguish constantly, but Zeus gave her the ability to remove her own eyes.

I laughed at how even the necromancers had them.

I really loved Father becoming a catty bitch when he thought that Mother slept with their creator. Just burn after burn on Mother like saying how he was pretty sure he wouldn't fall in love with her again.

Ok can someone explain how Father got his finger re-attached ?

It seems like for most injuries the androids are self healing seeing as Father's bullet wounds just kind of gradually vanished. Mother's issues seemed to be more from goo loss than the physical damage.

That second episode kind of felt like it ended a little too early. Like that was a weird spot to stop it.

I guess it was accurate but I did laugh at Marcus being described as a "boyfriend."

They're not one use? We're told Collective members have to return them when they're done, and the third episode implies the marbles have multiple other functions (e.g. tracking and data gathering).


Also a kind of key card since Lamia uses it to get into the schoolroom.

My bad, thought I saw Mother eating hers.

She did. She stuck it in her mouth because their suits don't have pockets.

I love that Campion killed the creature from the black lagoon but so much is going on it doesn't really seem relevant

I assume that it is related to the monsters from season 1, just that it lives in acid ocean.

Very funny how Mother conveniently leaves out of her "find a new leader" speech that she already has someone in mind for the job.

I think the idea was that the other guy was still getting exposed to the thing while they took Paul outside so things probably got worse for him.

Sue turning into a tree at the end of last episode and then said tree being eaten in the next episode is really something.

One of the things I absolutely love about this wack-rear end show is the opening credits. Everything about that sequence is haunting and bone-chilling. The song is perfect and the cuts say so much and yet so little; the more you see of the show the more you look at the visuals a bit cock-eyed.

At the very beginning of the credits (before we see the first explosion) there is what sounds like a countdown, no? Maybe I'm going deaf but that's what it sounds like to me, and I can't make out what language it's in.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of the opening credits. I love the animation.
