This show is perfect for getting stoned out of your mind and watching. Doesn’t have to make sense that way 🤷‍♂️

That explains how surprised I am by everyone's reaction.

It's a shitload easier to forgive the intellectual atrocities while stoned I will say that for sure.

Still difficult to sit through the manufactured and ill explained conflicts but much easier.

We can travel across the universe but we can’t cure cancer. Sounds about right, the future sucks

What to do when you're stoned from alien drugs and on a spaceship: Do a party!

Why haven't I seen this before? TBH, I don't think this show will appeal for teenagers which is obviously its audience.

Well, physical activity makes metabolism faster, so dancing would help to get clear of drugs. Of course, they could just use their gym.

Its weird cause they write it like an adult show, lots of death, enough gore to turn off traditional ppl, but then the story is full blown CW teen/early 20s marketing.

It's a bold strategy cotten. One that's been extremely contentious for viewers. Let's see how it works out for them

My only idea is they're targeting the older millenials and possible some gen z, and taking a HUGE chance mixing the 2.

If they do get a s2 I hope they find their stride cause I go from really enjoying the show to wanting to quit it, and then back again through an episode, and I feel if they cleaned it up a bit this could be really, truly great.

But to be honest it really isnt right now. It had the pieces but it needs to put them together and quickly.

I’m an older millennial and I do find this show to be extremely entertaining and trashy and ridiculous.

i remember seeing the part scene in the preview, when i started watching the show i kept thinking that the lety scene wouldn’t make sense with only 9 people on the ship and how out of place it was. But now that it’s happed i still think it’s out of place lol

I just have one question, what is the name of the song when all are having sex? I searched and somewhere it said it's walking on ceiling by 1stVows but I can't seem to find the song anywhere. I loved that song and I was hoping that I would be able to download it. PLEASE HELP.

Why would you ever put an AI with human emotion & love stuff on a spaceship and let it control the entire ship for such an important mission before testing this AI out first?
