Been meaning to watch this but I think I think it’s a Syfy channel show and Syfy channel fucking sucks. Just wretched. I’m sure Alan T. is good tho

BUT! aside from his story and characterization there is a boring fucking millennial soap opera in the background that is dull as fuck! the particular dramas of the assorted citizens of the town of "patience" (you need it!) add nothing to the story! they just delay and distract and make you forget that you're supposed to be, oh yeah, following an alien
whatever contributes to the alien's story, sure, show those characters! but when some random stupid ass couple or maladjusted overgrown teenager becomes the end in itself, i ask myself "why the fuck am i watching this boring shit?" and the answer is "oh yeah i am waiting for the hilarious alien and the kids and the xfiles derivation". but in between i have to endure some fucking cringe hallmark channel scenes mixed with unfunny parks and recreation ripoffs
but no i do not want boring soft milennial soap operas full of clichés. unfortunately life is short and i had to terminate this time waster. which is a pity
maybe i'll just fast forward through the boring bits. alan tudyk is a genius! but fuck, the peacock fwd/rwd controls are shit too. you can't pick an exact clip, and it moves too fast. i wanna yell "peacooooooock!" the way kirk yelled "khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!"
