“Alien: Earth” premieres in less than a month. On August 12, the first TV show set in the iconic sci-fi universe arrives on FX and Hulu (or Disney Plus in the U.K.), and to say my hype is reaching intergalactic levels would be quite an understatement.
I’m a superfan of the “Alien” franchise, with the 1979 original ranking as my favorite movie of all time, and the franchise as a whole my favorite in all of media. Naturally, “Alien: Earth” has been on my must-watch list since its initial announcement back in late 2020. It’s been a long five years to get to this point, but finally, after so much waiting and speculating, we’re just a few weeks away.
