So many images, no trailer.

[skhellter]

Has to be dropping soon. Not worried.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Stills are all looking very good. Other than the Alien itself, I remain very impressed by the look of everything that we've seen so far that is actually part of the show proper.

[Janek]

I am still a little bit worried, you guys remember the Willow tv-show? Me neither.

Please just please deliver a solid story with the correct look'n feel.

"the Earth is governed by five corporations"

Urgh. So it's finally confirmed that it contradicts Aliens, the movie Noah Hawley has been quoting the most in his interviews.

I guess with it being set 59 years earlier we'll just have to head canon it that this "corporate era" has ended by the time Aliens rolls round, probably after they inevitably end up nuking Prodigy City at the end of the show to prevent the equally inevitable outbreak of Aliens we'll get in the second season so that they don't become public knowledge.

And I can't believe some of those character names actually turned out not to be just placeholders. I'm definitely a lot more skeptical of this than I am of Badlands, even though both of them are going to be taking some very big swings.

After reading that synopsis and the alien design I'd be more hyped for a sequel to AVP R. Really hope to be proven wrong though

I'd say it is very likely that that isn't "head canon" and just becomes part of the text of the show.

[Kailem]

With how much time there is between this and Aliens, and with corporations running the world just being how it is here, I doubt we'll see that change actually take place in the show itself. It'll just have to be something the fans come up with to make this make sense with the stuff the films already established.

[Seegson]

Well, i like androids in the Alien universe. But if everyone in the show is gonna be a Cyborg, or an android, or an hybrid...it will be pretty weird.

[Bojo]

Finally a first screen appearance of a Yutani.

[bobby brown]

Damn! Burkes future jacket with the high collar returns!

[DARIAS93]

Uff! I didn't realize most of the cast is so young. I was cool with it in Romulus, but keeping that trend going feels a bit off to me. Still, I've got a bit of hope for the series.

[TheDerelict]

A mysterious spaceship crashes and Robots, robots robots, robo robots and robot robots, cyborg robots and hybrid cyborg robots will robot robot with cyborg hybrid robot to robot robot with a team of robot cyborg robots.

Wow, can't wait for this Alien's tv show.
