   Like the decapitation scene in one of the episodes in S1? The     
   effect was interesting - but the character's reactions were     
   "meh" like they've seen it many times.   
      
   I'll never forget how sick I felt when I went to see The Omen in     
   a theatre back in the 70s and saw the decapitation scene.

   Yes.. I didn't see many scifi-ish new gizmos. The protomolecule     
   thing just kind of reminded me what could happend when people     
   eat too much sugar.  :D

   I missed the "why" in S1 if it was mentioned. All I know is that     
   the missile, that was seemingly approaching the shuttle ship,     
   just zoomed passed them and went to the Cant.   
      
   I am also confused about WHO where the people that boarded the     
   Scopuli (where Julie was hiding). Did the biohazard consume the     
   invaders?  Did the invaders know about the biohazard?

    MP> It would have me had I been watching it on a platform to

   On SyFy was it just one episode per week or something like that?   
      
   The horror!
