Short and snappy and darkly humorous. There are no bones made about the horrors of deep space and flaws of humanity, but it's all done through captivating and extreme absurdism.
Take my word for it when I say that episode one was great!
This is the group’s first time dabbling in horror. Even so, the show is still a comedy, and the horror itself is a well-earned comedic beat. The audio design of the episode was also very impressive. The twist at the end made me really excited for future episodes. I don’t want to spoil it, but it sets up a mystery that also encourages the show’s improvisers to take dangerous risks with their characters
