Earth are in, and critics are praising the series as one of the franchise’s best entries. Created by Noah Hawley, Alien: Earth has a massive ensemble cast led by Sydney Chandler, Essie Davis, and Timothy Olyphant.

As its name suggests, Alien: Earth imagines what would happen if the Xenomorph wound up on our planet. Here, it arrives as part of the cargo of the USCSS Maginot, a Weyland-Yutani research vessel that crash lands in New Siam, Prodigy City, named after Weyland-Yutani rival Prodigy Corporation.

FX's addition to the "Alien" franchise, a prequel created by Noah Hawley, is a terrifying dystopia with a surprising set of interests.
