Through episode 3... I can't believe the Axos plan is working. Their plan depends on the Axonite being spread around the world within 3 days. And this is done by landing on a planet with only a handful of very bad experiences meeting aliens, and immediately striking up a deal that sees this completely unknown miracle substance spread out to everywhere in the world, before anyone even knows how it works or what it's capable of? But apparently for this story's purposes humanity is greedy enough for Axonite that they'll skip every precaution imaginable.

A bit of a backhanded compliment, but I'm enjoying that with this episode they finally seem to have gone fully into the "goofy 1970s effects" look I've been looking forward to. Multiple goofy alien costumes, an eyeball on a stalk, what was supposed to be a big blob on the ground that was clearly a guy moving around inside a big piece of cloth. Beautiful in its own way.
