My wife and I forced our way through Another Life and it's straight up terrible. By the last episode we completely un-engaged with the story, my wife summed it up best "Our adrenaline is exhausted, they've cried wolf too many times to the point that I just don't care about any of these characters, or the aliens"
Spoiler!
The thing that really bugged me, even more than the hot head crew who would be the last people you'd want on a critical mission, is the lack of follow through on the urgent situations they find themselves in.
- Flying through a deadly asteroid belt under manual control and the captain goes blind, some one else take the wheel.... cut to the captain blind her quarters, with no further discussion of the asteroid belt
- The crew's been infected with a deadly alien decease, but they think they found a cure... cut to the crew later cured
- The ship is being pulled into the a black hole, and they *think* they can use the alien implant embedded in a crew member's brain to give the ship some extra power... cut to them safe from the black hole
The whole whole season is like that, they're in a super deadly situation, some one blabbers out a possible way out, and they just don't bother showing them attempting the solution, we're just to assume it worked.
