One of the best sci-fi show Netflix has pull out. The characters are well developped and the story is well constructed.

First episode was so illogical, I think someone threw a bucket of words behind a jet engine to be blown at glue covered paper to make the script.

Many people have critic this show with 4/5 stars, the fact that the show is a little lost in the first season doesn’t mean that has great potential. Sci-Fi started getting better and better!!!

Any network would've cancelled the order 10 minutes into the screening. It's just plain irredeemable.… Expand

I liked it. It’s a good sci-fi show in this genre form young adults. There are a few cliches but nothing unbearable.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Total sjw trash. Crew is completely incompetent, like unbelievably so... They can fix anything, fight and yell all the time, and make horrible decisions that a child could make better. Who've wrote this is going to starve to death. Acting was so so, mostly bad. When the woman's choice only topic came up I completely stopped watching.… Expand

Why so much hate in this show? Lol this show is actually very engaging, enjoying with my significant other and she doesn’t like sci-fi. On episode 5 and still going strong.

Look it dosn't make alot of sense, but it's definitely alot of fun.

Alot of hommage to every scifi I could think of which dilutes the plot but a fun ride none the less

Is it good? Not sure. Did I just watched a whole season? Yes!! The script was corny, but it kept me watching and interested mostly. The graphics were a little lame, but think of it as an entertaining score-if tv show, not the next Star Wars.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanna start by the good things about this show, which won’t be long sadly. + they respected the rule "If you cannot explain it scientifically, don’t try", so AI, FTL (Which seems to be based on Alcubierre’s theories), artificial gravity etc. is not explained, and drifts away from hard science (but it’s okay, why not)
+ the acting is really great, seems like the actors did the most they could with what they had, doesn’t make the show great but A for effort I guess (especially William)
+ good CGI (not fantastic but not bad)

—

So for the bad stuff

- It was written and directed like trash : NASA or whatever doesn’t picks up an object the size of a football field, its apparently easier to find life in space than 1$ on the ground etc. - The person in charge of vetting everyone for the mission should get his ass fired, any psychological evaluation would have grounded Yerxa
- Why the hell does everyone has to have sex ? That’s cheap imho. 2 people had no sex scene (Petra and Cas). I mean, yeah of course it’s enjoyable to have love plots but Jesus it seems they’ve done that just to add more minutes or whatever. - the Aliens (those who landed on earth) kill for fun, they have no other goal than destruction, so that’s completely stupid in the first place but okay. Then why the hell do you bother landing a cristal thing where you could blow the whole planet easily (yes they can), they don’t appear to want to colonize, so why bother ?
- too many side plots made me almost forget why they were here. I could go on, and that’s just my opinion ofc, but this show doesn’t deserve your time. Cheers,… Expand

The cringe is strong with this production: between poor acting, poor settings, poor character reactions, poor production, and way too much pandering to the PC crowd... and lets not forget the overwhelming reliance on teenage girl drama.

where to begin with this piece of garbage. The actors are all decent but the writers should be strung up.

woke vomit, fugly like a sjw
But the real disadvantage of Another Life is a very poor quality of writing. Perhaps the writers didn't have "talent privilege" or "imagination privilege".
