...this just took a silly turn. An unnecessarily silly turn. I was intrigued, up to now. This episode just pushed the story into the realm of "monster movie", which, for me, was a disappointment. One problem is that the pacing of it better serves a more serious, plausible idea. A monster movie requires much greater tension and quicker jabs of threat and release, e.g., Alien. Maybe this will describe the coming episodes, we'll see. My feeling now is that I t's a shame. The indigenous defense mechanisms of the natural world moving to protect the Earth from mankind, seemed to me to be a much more powerful story line. Monsters are, after all, pretty silly.
