I was unaware that they were doing an Alien-franchise TV series, but here we are. Alien stuff varies wildly in quality so I'll wait to see it before attempting to judge, but I'm a fan of stuff like this transitioning to the small screen as I think premium TV is better than film these days, there's just more time to explore the concept and characters.

OK, that's definitely on the list of things to keep an eye on.

It’s a prequel… with aliens on earth so I wouldn’t expect much beyond a slasher of sorts on an island or something. Would have been cool as a sequel to Resurrection where they inadvertently infest earth at the end. Maybe all of the americas are mostly lost or something along those lines. I don’t hold much hope for it as it is.

The only correct response to any Alien projects since 1986.
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Alien 3 wasn’t bad if you ignore the CG, especially in the context of the utter shit that would follow later. Also AvP 1&2 were excellent! The games that is -_- It baffles me how such an acclaimed movie maker as Scott has made such utter shit with his additions to the series.

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
