I've only caught glimpses, but it seems to be 5 min of cool alternate space history every 3rd episode, and then 90 mins of feminist drama

bear in mind you're on /tv/ so that's not a great barometer for quality or lack thereof

>>219574471
Agreed. Really well done. The scene of the three of them in the bar was great. RIP kinoman

>>219567569
Every season it takes a while to get going because they have to use the first episodes to catch people up on the time jump while also setting up the new storyline. Now that kinomans dead I suspect things will get moving and they can devote more of the screen time to what's going on. Aleida going to mars suggests the same thing. Next episode will probably see the race to titan kick off in a big way

>>219573875
In a way, he still did go out in a blaze of glory- piloting the jail break of his friend, which exacerbated his symptoms. Even though he didn't die right then and there

>>219577192
Danielle poole and Ellen Wilson are both still alive in as far as we know, but I can't really see them coming back into the show

>>219577590
Actually yeah maybe Danielle will have a cameo in this season, so she could also count as having been there the whole time. Ellen however was absent in s4

>>219574120
>it's mostly people shitting on it
Isn't that every fucking thread on this godforsaken board? /tv/'s board culture is to just shit on everything it discusses.

Iirc Ellen was in the news reels at the start of both s4 and s5 but yeah, the actress herself was never there. If we get a kinoman funeral next episode I could maybe see Danielle and Ellen both appearing, especially given they got Karen and gordo back, but otherwise I doubt it

Only watching to see Kelly and Aleida trib in zero-G.

iirc description for the next episode mentions him getting a job at helios.
the vr headset from a couple of episodes feels like its foreshadowing for him going to titan, given it has oceans. the scene with the bike suggests hes mechanically inclined so maybe he ends up on the mission through some nepotism justification

Its pretty much already confirmed they find a The Thing parasite on Titan and it possesses and comes to invade Earth. But because his consciousness is still dormant in the monster, they let Margot out of prison to reason with the monster since she knew Ed and she saves the day.

I kind of hope Alex doesn't go to Titan, because that would probably mean his involvement with the resistance/rebellion against Earth's attempted crackdown is just for a couple episodes at the very end.

anon...

Am I the only one with an issue with how fucking lazy and pathologically evil the Soviets are portrayed? It's literally every boring anti-Soviet/anti-Russia trope there is. They even do the no colour/blue filter for all Soviet scenes lmao.
Also the Soviets were supposed to be ahead in technology in the SENPAI universe, so why in S3/4 are they so fucking shit and so far behind? Soviets weren't even behind in real world space exploration.
No way Star City spinoff isn't just insane levels of anti-Soviet propaganda.

>>219594264
Also just to add, the worldbuilding for the Soviets isn't even consistent, they show it "successfully" went through Glasnost and Perestroika, that Western Corporations and such are full present in Soviet society, yet it's presented like they still live in peak 1930s Great Purge era lmao. They even DRESS in early 20th century style clothing lol.

>>219594346
glasnost and perestroika worked in their timeline, but then the gang of eight coup succeeds. the new president, korzhenko (who seems to be based on an obscure soviet general irl) seems to decide to keep reaping the economic benefits of more open trade with the west while eschewing gorbachevs more diplomatic/democratic reforms

im not disagreeing with your general point (especially in the early seasons, the show is pro-capitalist to a somewhat comical degree), but the reasons the ussr has gone back to being more "villainous" now make enough sense that i have no real beef with them

Did they really fucking kill off Kinoman three episodes in, with another season left??

You have to love how it even shits on non-hierarchical collaborative corporate structures with pre-milf Helios.

ah yes can't wait to watch more of the millennial martian revolutionaries™

>>219594611
i guess its not entirely unrealistic that everyone is sucking off capitalism during the cold war and especially reaganomics era. occupy was really the first *big* point where the idea that capitalism might also have flaws entered the mainstream, and so were only really reaching that point now in their timeline (the asteroid and the imbalance in who gets its iridium seems to be the stand in for that). the pegging of equivalent big events/issues as they happen in their timeline has been pretty 1:1 with ours (with the only big exception i can think of being that they jumped straight from dont ask dont tell to a gay marriage bill)

all of that said, its really funny to watch the characters in the early seasons talk about how amazing capitalism is, in contrast to life today irl (i dont even mean this as a pro commie post, communism is stupid and will never work, before someone comes after me. i just mean capitalism comes with more drawbacks than people in the reaganomics era thought)

Show is pro-Corporate wank (even Nasa is presented as shit compared to Helios), but it's the best Scifi on TV. Had higher expectations for former Trek writers tho to do better worldbuilding though.

I like the scenes on Mars showing the food court/shopping mall area. Reminds me of Babylon 5's Zocalo or DS9's promenade. 90s sci-fi kino will never die.

God damn that episode was boring as fuck.

>>219566722
>nothing happens episode

I cannot believe we are still not rid of Margo. Her plotline last season was so forced and drawn out.
When she went to prison, I thought it was finally over.
She should have just died in the explosion.

I want to see the damn asteroid up close. They also haven't shown anything from Titan. I have a feeling their budget has been cut this season

>>219610752
There is asteroid stuff in the trailer.
And I think this season is better than the last one in terms of budget and effects. s4 seemed to actively avoid showing the surface of Mars, and it looked pretty bad when they did

>>219611033

Problem is they stopped caring about hard-scifi, rockets etc stuff.
Like.. how in actual fuck do they even get to Mars? How in fuck are REFUGEES from thirdy countries ending up ON MARS? Every fucking gram on a rocket has to be accounted for, yet somehow you are getting stowaways on fucking ROCKETS?

What was the point of the scene with the Latina's family telling her to go to Mars? That the character is so unlikeable that even her husband and daughter want her to fuck off?

>>219594264
Show is written by Gen X neolib centrist types that jerk off over Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton.
Starcity might actually be better than current SENPAI since it's going back to the more interesting era. But the fact they can't even portray a single thing about the Soviet Union or it's space program accurately, doesn't give me high hopes.

I regret watching anything past season 3 honestly.
The Mars stuff sucks and it always takes me out when they pretend like Martian identity would have started cropping up only after a few years.

>>219620467
Humans have been on mars for 20 years in the show now anon. That's more than a few

I think Americans are so fucking obsessed with their “muh independence” founding story that they are now projecting it on the Mars storyline even though it makes no sense at all. (And forgetting that it took English settlers in America 150 years to even get there, and they didn’t even want to secede in the first place, just have more representation at Parliament).
That wannabe-journalist girl has lived on Mars for maybe 10 years and is somehow all-in on Martian independence? It’s just silly. Most of these people would still be more attached to their Earth nationalities. If a Martian identity did take root, it would only be after a few generations. Not to mention the supposed “injustices” and “muh Earth overreach” is not at all excessive - arresting the prime suspect in a murder case and extraditing him…

S1: spacekino
S2: spacekino
S3: spacekino-ish

>>219620606
Even having families on Mars is a stretch. It's an industrial site like a oil rig or mining project with people on FIFO contracts.
Feels like they want the show to be a sort of semi-Star Trek prequel now rather a hard scifi show.
>>219620528
20 years is a tiny amount of time for a national identity to arise, especially one that would lock you out from returning to fucking EARTH.

>>219619987
You're right about the craters making no sense but it would have been interesting to see someone being smuggled aboard a rocket. It would be far better than the dull Earth plots in recent seasons, where a character argues with their family over whether they should go to Mars before going anyway.
Last season they could have shown that guy's wife escaping North Korea and then living in a crate and shitting into a bucket. It would be better than watching the family scenes with that droopy-faced Asian woman.

>>219620606
>That wannabe-journalist girl has lived on Mars for maybe 10 years and is somehow all-in on Martian independence? It’s just silly
the entire point of her character right now is that shes stupid and young and naive and idealistic

Right but the Mars colony has a totally different set up. No single country has jurisdiction and the whole thing is ran by a Russian. I imagine that would make some Americans pissy.

i wanna know what dirt the sherriff has on miles because it honestly sounds like the Big Secret is that he caved to hours of torture and threatening his family and I cant imagine a non-retard thinking miles was like evil or betrayed anyone for that

The early seasons of this show were also quite shit, it's just that they had a handful of redeeming spaceflight scenes scattered amongst the 10 hours of melodrama.
The previous 2 have lacked even that, these opening episodes of season 5 have me regretting the whole experience because I feel I have to see it through.
