Once I figured out that it was produced by Amblin, I realized why they chose to subvert their characters for the message they wanted to get across. A lot of this show is just pieces of other sci-fi stories held together by the glue that is Alan Tudyk’s performance. Amblin still has its roots in the Spielberg school of “you’re gonna hear my message whether you want to or not”, and it suffers because of it. The mystery that they pretended to base the show around for the first few episodes doesn’t really turn out to be a mystery at all, they just string you along before revealing the obvious answer. I wish I could like this more, but the story was just a backdrop for typical social commentary one would expect from Spielberg and company, aimed at anyone that they don’t deem to be righteous.

The first season was great: acting is good, characters are intriguing, cgi is not overintrusive, story is kind of okay, the whole thing is great. The second season on the other hand: it's an unbridled mess which peaks (poorly) on episode 3The first season was great: acting is good, characters are intriguing, cgi is not overintrusive, story is kind of okay, the whole thing is great. The second season on the other hand: it's an unbridled mess which peaks (poorly) on episode 3 (so far) of bad, it's like all the writers had no direction whatsoever and went with the worst ideas that could be thrown. Season one is a solid 9, season two is a solid 1 (maybe it will improve), average is 5. Expand

Fun but simple, it's strong concept quickly turns into an average dramedy with a sci-fi twist. Lacking any sophistication beyond its visual effects, makes light of the dramatic parts of it's story and opts for simple humour instead ofFun but simple, it's strong concept quickly turns into an average dramedy with a sci-fi twist. Lacking any sophistication beyond its visual effects, makes light of the dramatic parts of it's story and opts for simple humour instead of something with more depth. Great to switch off and watch at the end of a work day though. Expand

If you have nothing else to watch it is an OK show with average jokes.

The woke commentary and racism is a bit annoying, but I've seen worse. Without it I'd have given it 7 points.

Season one great, season two awful. No real direction and as other commenters mentioned episode three is a complete mess with some woke storyline nonsensically crowbarred in.

Loved season one. second season, not so much… gave up after episode three. lay off on the social justice. return to the original formula.. most of us are beyond sick of all forms of politics….
