Alien, Earth

When we sat down with Alien: Earth creator and showrunner Noah Hawley, he got the memo about the one-word answer. Not only that, but the Fargo creator also expanded on that sentiment to give us a brilliant tease for what’s to come in the remaining six episodes:
Like Ridley Scott’s Alien, Hawley’s new series takes its time building up terror and suspense. In true reverence to its predecessor, Alien: Earth crafts a dark, chilling atmosphere as it turns the Maginot into another haunted house in space. This is a sharp contrast to the bright, lush “paradise” of Neverland.
In Episode 2 of Alien: Earth, Morrow successfully fought off the Xenomorph, for the time being, with a taser rifle and a net fabricated from artificial webbing. This act was extremely helpful, as it saved Hermit’s life when the Xenomorph was about to take him.
Alien: Earth has finally hatched on TV screens across the globe. Noah Hawley's eagerly-awaited Alien TV show made its debut on August 12 (North and South America) and August 13 (everywhere else), and it seems like it's going down a treat with the sci-fi horror franchise's global fanbase.

All the ‘Peter Pan’ Connections in ‘Alien: Earth,’ Explained: Wendy, Neverland and Lost Boys
Here is what you need to know about all of the "Peter Pan" Easter eggs and connections in FX's "Alien: Earth."
That’s how you do a needle drop. It accentuates the action and adds to the mystery with a song known but not overplayed, a song that feeds off the themes of the series. It has a strong sense of purpose.
Earth doesn’t settle for unleashing the franchise’s signature acid-blooded terror on a new stage. It drags an entire menagerie of extraterrestrial nightmares down to our planet.
Alien: Earth might have already done something that the folk at Lumon Industries in Severance have been building towards.
But Alien: Earth is a ton of fun so far, and part of that fun stems from the fact that this particular xenomorph is not picking off anything one-by-one. It is killing its way through this show like it's got a bodycount quota. Hell yeah.
