Alien: Earth is the latest entry into the long running franchise that all at once pays homage to its source material while breaking some entirely new ground with a thought experiment worthy of the best kind of proper science fiction. It’s an evolution, it’s slick and scary just like every good little Xenomorph should be.

Noah Hawley's daring exploration of the Alien universe makes for a great sci-fi TV show that asks big questions without neglecting the fun factor.
