Netflix Has Made the Worst Show I've Ever Seen
Video Overview & Insights
*FULL SPOILERS*
38:54 so what makes this even worse is that 255 in binary is 11111111. This man saw "111111111111111111111111" and immediately assumed out of sweet fucking nowhere that 24 1s in a row was meant to be an RGB color code
Here's my review of Netflix's Another Life, one of the worst shows I've ever seen.

on my first watch the intro to this video fully convinced me that they actually did a kinda clever character introduction lol

Even your common airplanes have 3 sets of nearly everything in them. 3 sets of hydraulics/wires running from the cockpit back to the engines and tail, for example, and they are spread around outer edges of the plane so that even if say the left wall was severed somehow, cutting everything, there's another set of wires to the top-right and one below. There are multiple flight control computers, every engine can be indepedently shutoff if there is a fire or the engine gets damaged and starts vibrating excessively (which can damage the wing, so it's actually designed to rip off of the wing and fall away before it can shear off anything else), etc. And there is even MORE redudancy required for any plane that flies over the ocean, as it has to be certified ETOPS, which stands for something official but is easy to remember as "Engines Turn Or People Swim." This is because while most of the US is easy to land on, if necessary (the national highway system was designed in part to have roads everywhere that could be used to take off or land large military planes, so airports wouldn't be quite as essential in case of invasion), landing in water is more dangerous all around, and harder to get rescued from, so they have additional requirements to make that extremely unlikely. A deep-space intergalactic mission, pushing the boundaries of human experience that might also have to engage in combat, should have a ship that is basically built of redudancy, and supply rooms loaded with replacements for everything imaginable. Oh, and maybe food enough to last for many months, even if it's just undesireable MREs or something.
It's amazing how much was inspired by Star Trek, yet is made by people who have never seen Star Trek, or heard anything about it.

0:00 Intro
0:20 EPISODE ONE: ACROSS THE UNIVERSE
Ha) but I think that other than junk food for the brain 🧠 and just a real question for sleep as you will go to bed actually angry and upset why you watched another fucking episode of copycat shitterly and poorly done with clearly being well financed... Star trek red dwarf and farscape... Armegeddon... But zero of it's own fucking identity... I have been struggling with the other stuff but I don't think that i or you care about it fuck all anymore anyways.... YAY IT'S OVER ❤❤😂😂😂Oh my fucking gawd, I was laughing at the start of the episodes series but it is actually quite concerning if conflicts run into each other and utilising previous conflicts with the future conflicting requirements of the conflict in the present... But i don't care much for the series at all but share concerns and worry about the writers who must be ready to throw themselves out of the airlock atleast 5 episodes ago.... But it doesn't seem to matter if it takes great ideas from proper movies and actually greatly competitive and successful sifi series like SGA... AND BATTLE STAR 🌟 GALLACTICA... AND SUPER MAN AND LOIS (
14:45 EPISODE TWO: THROUGH THE VALLEY OF SHADOWS
20:25 EPISODE THREE: NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
Holy fucking shit I have been hoping waiting for some cock in the ass then the mouth and vag of a movie series such as this abortion of a catastrophe and diabolical poorly thought out plot stealing stuff from much better movies the core and the whales, for example.... But the best thing is that I haven't laughed and cried laughing so much, so fucking much.... The most unforgettable comedy that didn't think it is.... Because it thinks it's not funny but it's hilarious.... 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
30:25 EPISODE FOUR: GUILT TRIP
34:39 EPISODE FIVE: A MIND OF ITS OWN
Knowing that this show got funded... Not to mentioned got funded for multiple season now... I am convinced that anyone can make a show. And make a show with better writing than this lol
39:29 EPISODE SIX: AAAAHHHHH
44:54 EPISODE SEVEN: LIVING THE DREAM
The binary for white is the number 1 24 times. That’s it. What a useful message.
49:44 EPISODE EIGHT: HOW THE LIGHT GETS LOST
54:06 EPISODE NINE: HEART AND SOUL
Danny Pink.
1:01:34 EPISODE TEN: HELLO
R3tarded plot, r3tarded characters and trying to make it woke with the now obligatory short hair baddass lady and making every guy around her a fcking idi0t. Jackpot 🤑

28: 36 This is for the best.
@BoboDiggitty0:53 such bad CG.
@claydogg234Darn! I thought this was new for a sec
@Holden420So...are we hating on the writing of this show (if so, oh well I understand-to some extent)? Because I am so done with hate atp, it's tiring, can we just love a little more in this world it's all I ask. It was a damn good show to me, even though there are major plot holes and some of the characters were annoying asf, but I enjoyed and loved it (Niko/Katee did an outstanding job, the girl is the main reason I watched the show, so if we are not hating on her then ill be a little bit nicer). But jeez, an hour + just talking about how much you hate this show, is starting to sound like obsession to me. Just let people enjoy the show man (and Katee, will not be taking any hate against her)
@izfizzz4😒Did @JayExci really have nothing better to do than to watch the ENTIRE show just to come on YouTube just to shit on the show for over an hour? 😒If you hated the show that much then why give it any kind of publicity at all? Why go through the idiotic process of shitting on every single line of every single scene? That's just sad... It's a sci-fi t.v. show; not a NASA documentary.
@danielcalixte8599Are those filter or AI, green screen....? Why do they all look like that....?
@The.Emerald.Weasel-DemonI managed to get through one episode and drew the same conclusions. I’m a bit of a “ I’ve started so I will finish” type of person. Thank god for your video it saved me from myself.
It’s a shame because I think Kate did everything she could to hold up the show, but as you said the writing was so awful she was on the back foot from the start and given an impossible task.
40:47 Planned Obsolescence in a nutshell.
@MigattenoBlakaei’m a chemist who is dating a physicist. this made me want to merge into traffic without looking, 10/10 video
@pixieduststewAn AI we can’t turn off or override that frequently makes mistakes that could kill us turned out to actually be quite realistic.
@milkshakellieHey Jay! I hope you are ok after all these years!
@Tymbusactually, hex color-codes are just RGB color-codes, in this context: FF = 255; FF/FF/FF = 255 red, 255 green, 255 blue. not exactly the same thing, in that the former is a particular way to represent the latter; but one could argue that there's not quite an error in equating them here.
...probably they did not know that though, lol. anyway, another sort of dumb thing: oxygen isn't destroyed when you breathe it—so, if they can separate oxygen from unknown crystals, surely CO2 would not present a problem...🤔
Finally a use for my automatic scroll wheel.
@UnderTheSkin13Whenever I need to know that I'm not a total failure...I come here to watch this.
Nothing boosts my mood more than knowing I could make a better show despite no experience what's so ever.
Just saying this show would be fucking awesome if the characters weren’t fucking stupid as shit
@ItsTerraDIt's like a car crash. The characters are soooooooo baaaaaaad!!! I found myself rooting for the evil alien parasites 😢 It made me a worse person
@PointlessRTXI tried watching Another Life (2019) on Netflix again today, and man, it's still one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. I hated it back in 2019, and rewatching it now just confirmed how absolute garbage this show is.
None of the actors or characters are good. Not a single one. Every character is annoying as hell and completely uninteresting. I have no idea how any of these clowns got selected for what’s supposed to be one of the most important missions in human history. The pacing is terrible, the plot is stupid, and it feels like the writers were picked straight off the street with zero experience in sci-fi. You can tell that from the very first episode.
A crew like this would never survive in real life. That’s exactly why space mission selection is so strict—only the absolute best, most qualified people go. Not random teens and young adults who look and feel completely unqualified for something this serious.
The rivalry between the old woman and the dude comes out of nowhere with no real reason, and then they expect us to believe she kicks him and he goes flying away like a bitch and dies from electrocution? Lmao, what? The first thing they should’ve done is turn off the damn electricity and fix the problem, but instead everyone’s just casually walking around like it’s normal. The set design also looks cheap and trashy — it doesn’t feel like a real spaceship at all. If Netflix really wanted to make this show, they should’ve spent more on the budget and hired actual competent writers.
Honestly, Netflix feels like a straight-up money laundering machine at this point. The amount of low-quality bullshit they keep pumping out is insane. They’re just throwing millions (sometimes billions) at random productions to fill up their catalogue. Only a handful of Netflix originals are actually worth watching. I don’t even know why I’m still subscribed — there’s barely anything good on this terrible platform. The only decent shows and movies are the ones that aren’t Netflix originals.
Total waste of time. Would not recommend.
I genuinely remember seeing parts of this show whilst a friend of mine was binge watching it and good lord I never realized it was this bad. It makes me wonder if they intentionally write shows like this because they know people will just binge watch it and not give a shit.
@TheHollowGamer448Watched this in 2026 for the first time. I would not want to live in a world where every crew member will sit there and bad mouth, backstab, act like total toddlers. What a waste of time. Who the hell writes like this? It took many layers of editing and approving to get this garbage. What a waste of money and time.
It's been said that writers should write what they know. These writers should know at least the most basic of Science. Also don't define science facts as the next line, this patronizes the audience who actually know more than the writers.
I slept on your review
I was in a pretty disaster
Why are you explaining each episode rather than summarising it for review
The main actress was one of the worst things about this show, jesus christ. Also all the fake love like "He was the love of my life, oh yeah and my husband now I love him sure" "OMG My daughter I'd destroy the universe for" Forgets she fucking exists even when she's been back on earth for a while lol. Turns around like ohhhh yeah you exist "I love you so much:.
@adeep187The duality of me is loving this show and this video
@TaeSunWoo21:26 She’s not the one making up the 27 club, and there’s more than three people. It’s been part of pop culture since the 90s.
@meyominthey stole the whole sound thing and I don't mean the idea, the same music the response being very loud all of it from close encounters of the 3rd kind,. close encounters is a great movie go watch that instead. besides that when the 02 was disappearing wasn't fixed yet they went after it. as a former submarine sailor I know they would have 02 generators basic tech, and also 02 candles as a emergency backup. at this point had to stop. then looked to see if others found it so horrible.
@kellybarthel806042:22 So, I don't think Jay thought that we would get to the point where this absolute bonkers stupidity might actually be a thing that we could now see actually happening.
@adammyers3453the husband pigeon guy looks like Zachary Ruane and it makes the show a lot more enjoyable if you pretend that it is
@jjjasonAThe Dark matter was made entirely of Zubats in a cave. Definitely gonna hit something if you go into it too fast
@monologistics“But what if we can get the birds to talk to it?”
How the fuck are you gonna do that?
I remembered this video, and by extension this show, when I watched Happy Tree Friends and saw Toothy's circulatory system get pulled out of his body by a fishing hook. Unlike Happy Tree Friends, I suspect that Another Life did not set out to be cartoony slapstick gore.
@isavenewspapers8890If I may can you review 1 or 2 seasons of "The Ark"
Thanks for the video 👋
I'm glad I found this video. I thought I was the only one that hated this stupid series. So it's not just me. Netflix really does suck these days
@lillyanneserrelio2187would honestly love to see a follow up about the second season of this trainwreck
@userk9lol I thought the show was really dumb but for whatever reason i still enjoyed it
@KingPoliMXE39:00 Even worse, the binary representation of "255, 255, 255" would literally be "111111111111111111111111". It literally just screamed 1's at you, and you somehow managed to interpret that as the *color white*.
@ChooChoo62Biology student here! The symptoms they have from the “virus” all are neurological and even mirror lyssa viruses to some extent. Aggression, blindness, and seizures/spasms can all happen if someone is infected with rabies. I think the thing that feels so unrealistic is how each person only gets one symptom. Usually you get a handful of neurological symptoms that vary from person to person but this “virus” seems isolated to a specific region in the brain that differs for each individual which is very weird. Also yea you can kill viruses with gamma rays but it’s dose dependent and wouldn’t work if the virus has already infected the person. That’s like noticing bleach disinfects things so you drink a jug to cure the flu.
@beanthebean4409“Someone, somewhere decided that the AI should be able to make decisions for the crew that can easily kill them if it makes the wrong call. They also decided that the crew shouldn’t be allowed to overwrite those decisions, even when said AI is so flimsy that it can be completely knocked out by a fire in an unrelated part of the ship.”
Remember that story of that guy who got into a Waymo and the Waymo, once it reached his destination, instead of unlocking the doors and letting him leave, decided to keep the doors locked and drive around in circles, while being completely unresponsive to everything he said. Eventually the guy was finally able to get in contact with a human employee of Waymo and ask for help, to which the employee revealed that employees are unable to override or take control of the Waymo in any way.
Poor Katee Sackhoff.
@Penfold19839:25 maybe this society runs on mirror universe starfleet rules
@zoewells3160No mi é piaciuto!👎🏻
