    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Well, I'm generally enjoying this. Fairly generic most of the time, but has some good scenes too.

    I ditched-out after two episodes. Dull as ditchwater and beyond generic - quite the disappointment, unfortunately. I wanted to like it, but what a let down. Arnie's wasted on this.

    For a "comedy" it's pretty bloody unfunny, too. Capping off a scene with one character just repeating "9pm ... 9pm..." after being told they need to regroup at that time? What?! That's indicative of how bland the whole thing is.

    Baffling, too, as the showrunner was also behind "Reacher" on Prime, and that was rather good.

    Horse for courses - I've quite enjoyed some of the scenes, dialog and character interplay. Yep, it's generic and clunky at time, but there's enough other fun stuff in there to keep my little noggin interested

    Plus it's nice to see Alotta Fagina again

    She was so familiar and it took me a little bit to put my finger on it when watching the couple of episodes I could stomach, but then I recognised her.

    The daughter was also in Top Gun: Maverick.
