Coy Jandreau (DC Studios), Tara Erickson, & Aaron Alexander react to Alien: Earth Episodes 1 & 2 — the first ever TV series in the Alien franchise from Noah Hawley (Fargo), set in 2120 just two years before Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic. This FX/Hulu sci-fi horror prequel takes us to a corporate-ruled Earth where Weyland-Yutani and upstart tech empire Prodigy clash over the aftermath of a crashed research ship in New Siam, unleashing new terrors including Xenomorphs and other nightmarish threats. Featuring Sydney Chandler, Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, Essie Davis, and Adarsh Gourav, Alien: Earth expands the universe while diving into themes of corporatism, ethics, and survival. We break down the shocking reveals, Lost Boys synthetic program, jaw-dropping horror set pieces, and how it connects to the films: Alien (1979), Aliens (1986), Alien³ (1992), Alien: Resurrection (1997), Prometheus (2012), Alien: Covenant (2017), plus crossovers Alien vs. Predator (2004) and Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007). From Easter eggs and practical effects callbacks to philosophical debates about what it means to be human, this reaction covers every scream, shock, and spine-tingling moment from Episodes 1 & 2 of Alien: Earth.
