a huge disappointment from writer hamm and director dante . their previous collaboration on the first season homecoming be twist and darkly hilarious in all the right way . this poor handling of an intriguing premise leave me bewilder . the suppose payoff show generic alien extract something from the brain of the infected psychopath be completely unsatisfying and explain nothing . if the point of the story be an extraterrestrial cleaning of the planet of it human infestation and why do they go about it in such a gratuitously sadistic and misogynistic fashion . why not just unleash a completely lethal virus a la stephen king the stand instead of have the male population butcher the female . i keep hop the episode would improve a i keep watch but it just get more pretentious and preposterous . the religious subtext simply seem force but it be clear sam hamm must have think it be profound by the weight he give it . i like a lot of both dante and hamm work but this be just unwatchable .
