New Netflix show Another life is absolute garage

[AndroidB]

Anyone watched it/ watching it? I just watched the first episode and I think it may be the worse TV show I have watched. Its like a high-school drama in space with whiny milenials. Are these the best astronauts Earth is sending on an important mission. The acting is bad. The dialogue is terrible. I could probably write a better plot myself. And the special effects are very meh. Can't believe Netflix greenlit this, it was painful to get through the first episode.

I watched the first five minutes of this last night, WTAF? I was tired and hot so thought it was just me! I got as far as the big thing crash landing and decided to call it a night

Maybe it's one of those programmes where you need to be completely pissed or stoned to appreciate it?

Ohhh gosh I was hoping someone else would have experienced this giant space turd!

In the future, we crew the most important mission in the history of humanity with a selection of whiny, millennial 20 somethings who are good at the following: Shouting, arguing, shagging, emerging from months of sleep with impressive make up, running around in skimpy outfits (screaming and arguing) and getting high a lot. All the qualities one needs on a life saving mission. They are also utterly incompetent.

The only plus side is they are killed off with alarming regularity - but it’s ok because there are a seemingly infinite supply of these gorgeous whiny snowflakes in sleep mode. So when one comes to a sticky end, another is woken up - obviously chosen on how annoying and shouty they are. And how good they look in a sports bra and pants.

Then we have the ships AI computer. Formed to be a tad older than the high school crew, William is supposedly infallible, reliable, supremely intelligent and yet, oddly is coded to feel emotion. Yep, bloody good idea that - so obviously within 2 episodes he’s ‘fallen in love’ with Captain Niko. Then has a hissy fit and refuses to do anything as he’s been ‘hurt’.

Fuck me hard with a meteorite, this show is just so BAD.

Nonstopbuttmachine not sure there is any amount of alcohol that could make me appreciate this garbage show

ComfortablyGlum yeah they are the most inappropriate incompetent people for what is claimed to be such an important mission? Omg yes why would you make such an emotional AI. How far did you get into the show before you stopped watching it or did you manage to watch it all? I watched the first episode and 10 minutes of the second, the I skipped ahead into the final episode to see what the alien threat was and to see if it got any better. It didn't!!

I feel bad for the main actress, think she tried her best but nothing could save this show. I can't think of anything I have watched that is worse.

Garage?

tanstaafl accidental typo using my phone, its supposed to be garbage. Not sure how to change title of thread

I have watched a couple of episodes and was it's almost so bad it's good. I got to episode 3 thinking it may improve.

The characters are so awful- these whiny, sniping incompetents have been sent to save earth...really are they the best available?

I quite like the actress playing Niko, she was good in Longmire, but she can't rescue it.

Due to be poorly I actually sat through the whole bloody thing. SPOILER: It does NOT improve.

The ending pertains to the fact they were so certain to get a second series. However, I feel we shall never know for certain the fate of humanity and the crew of The Salvare.

Although if I had to guess, I’d say humanity would have stood more of a chance if they had sent the Chuckle Brothers, a few Love Islanders and Mr Bean out into space.

Another annoying point - did anyone feel that Niko’s wetter than a sponge husband would not be in charge of deciphering an alien artefact, pretty much by himself, in a field, a handful of soldiers for protection and an ‘impenetrable’ barrier made with a few lights and some camping chairs?

All of you lovelies have just burst my bubble! My husband and I are planning to start watching it tonight. Not too hopeful now!

Now I don't know whether to watch it in order to understand the full depth of the awfulness, or just avoid. I love sci fi but I hate whiney shaggers.

I was just reading the synopsis, I will not be watching it now 😂 thank you for saving me from wasting some time.

ComfortablyGlum why would you do that to yourself. I’d say humanity would have stood more of a chance if they had sent the Chuckle Brothers, a few Love Islanders and Mr Bean out into space 😂. Yeah I agree with you about Niko’s husband. His boss (I think that's what she was) also seemed out of place and unprofessional. Think everyone except Niko felt out of place and completely incompetent. Also spoiler alert but that alien creature in episode 10 with the big bug eyes and batwings I almost started laughing 🤣. Wtf was that!

BlackAmericanoNoSugar unless you watch it you won't be able to understand how truly awful it is

Sometimes horrible shows are rather entertaining so I will watch the first episode at least. My husband and I get a kick tearing apart terrible tv shows and movies.

Each episode is basically another sci-fi film ripped off, extremely badly, and the acting is even worse.

It's massively disjointed and some of the effects look straight out of old school red dwarf. It's a no from me.

I watched the first episode but fell asleep. The very low IMDB rating put me off. DH quite liked it though so he can watch it in his own!!

Why did they cast that annoying, whispery, simpering, giggling child to be the engineering officer? Don't they know that all sci-fi engineers are contractually obliged to be forthright, stern, shouty and preferably Scottish?
