One fan compared the show to the original Alien movie and called it a must-watch for fans of the franchise.
OK. So #AlienEarth is fucking amazing. The pacing is a bit slow in the first episode, but other than that, it’s great. It feels like I’m watching the original Alien again, but with the violence of the sequels added in. This is a must watch if you like the Alien franchise at all.
