Message:Dumb. Watched three episodes and found myself laughing, mocking and angry.
Has no idea how to introduce a fresh mythos. What little is there is used poorly. Scale is so horror, yet you wonder if the writer forgot to tell us this is in a world of Taints and Immunes. There's so few people (experts, security, protestors). e.g., Rescue party of seven child-minds instead of seven thousand cyberpunk veterans. In confines of space, you have what you got. On earth, where are the Tiger Teams (as stupid as that would be, it would be how earthlings respond).
I imagined this was going to be post apocalyptic man vs aliens, like Terminator aftermath. No, the writer wants it to be a fable on Trillionaire ambitions and Faustian faux-science.
The studios keep throwing 100s of millions at the next boy-genius of Hollywood, hoping for a visionary, e.g., Tarantino or Tim Burton. But all they end up discovering is the magic beans do not bear fruit. Maybe it's generational; kids today have no idea how to tell a story. Their mothers should have read to them more.
Stop the shite-vomit on my cultural legacy (Alien, c. 1979) and write your own epics you talentless parasites.

Positive Note: Nice puppetry from guys in Alien Suits. But turn way-down the music volume in action scenes.
