The writers have to be making all this shite up as they go - no freaking way they planned this.

100% this.

One more episode to go and I can forget this series forever.

Also this. I’m invested enough to watch just because I want to know what happens, but it’s just so.. dumb.

Glad I’m not the only one who sees ridiculous writing with the soldier. Dude can’t explain a damn thing and the writers think that’s dramatic effect or something? Nobody can explain a damn thing that’s what’s so pathetic about this series.

Just watched the ending . . . maybe.

Why was the Elon-type guy trying to find the Asian chick at the end? And, I thought the ship was dead - what the hell took her up?

So they made up some back story for the Elon dude too. All of this shite was done last minute - no doubt now.

This show . . .

Cole relives what he thinks happened to Casper. He then tells everyone HE killed Casper, but leaves out several key details.

Then jap girl is found, healed… gee, wonder if they could do the same … naw. No chance.

And why is Cole turning into a worthless & weak head case? It’s the end of humanity and he’s acting like a colossal twat.

*End of ep. 9

Team WDC & Alien Cult have a silly shootout in the forest. Husband and wife go from being normal people to Mrs & Mrs. Smith, then back to normal in all of 5 minutes. Looks like wifey got hit before she ducks out of site behind a bolder. Husband gets over there thinking she’s shot, but she takes like 10 minutes to explain that she’s wearing armor and is fine.

( I compare that scene from the TV show Firefly. Zoe gets shot and lands on her back but continues fighting. After the battle, she rips open her shirt to show she’s got a bulletproof vest and says “armor’s dented“. Indicating that she is both fine and the bullet didn’t pierce her.)

There, that’s how it’s done!

Afterwards, husband and wifey have this weird emotional discussion about making it back home to “figure it all out“. What the hell are they figuring out? They weren’t fighting before they got dragged into this mess. They weren’t on the brink of divorce, were they? They are right at the doorstep of completing their mission, so talk of going all the way back home to figure out something is nonsensical.

And the firefight scenes are both comical & sad.

S3, Ep 10 - I'm not 3 minutes into this mess and my god...Lady doctor is out hustling the ENTIRE military trained squad because SHE'S ON A MISSION!

This is Galadriel Warrior Princess vibes, all over. Just because she's now newly single (again) , she's George Patton, Rambo and Xena all in one. Oh, and everyone is gonna listen to lady cult leader because... she said so, that's why! SMDH.

*World Defense morons are 'tracking' the cult group. They stop, whisper to each other, keeping a low profile. Then idiot African guy shouts HEY! I GOT SOMETHING HERE! Real stealthy like, genius. F'tards.

DONE

Finished this absolute garbage tier series and without doubt, among the worst things I've had to endure on screen.

Where the hell did all the writers go? Was this the same group that started off in Season 1? If so, they completely mailed in the last 2 seasons. None of it made any sense, there was never any core story to tell, they were making it up as they went along. The aliens were garbage, goals and allegiances were constantly shifting for zero reasons, there was insanely long pauses, staring, pointless monologuing & sharing of FEELINGS. THE WORST timed back and forth between characters... Jam telling Trevante "*Still not a kid" WHO THE FOKK CARES?? You've got a thing to do to save planet, NO ONE would act like this - ever!!


*IRL , the actros are 20 and 34, respectively. That's damn close enough for a guy to call a young girl a 'kid', Considering she's just out of HS and he's well over 30, yeah.. KID. Deal with it.
