Well, Alien: Earth Episode 3 drops another big cliffhanger ending on fans – one that, once again, leaves one of the Hermit family members in dire straits.

A fter what has felt like an eternity in development, Alien: Earth is finally streaming on Hulu and Disney Plus this week. The long-awaited TV show reinvents the universe of the Alien movies as a terrifying eight-episode series. We've seen the first six of those, and you can find out what we made of them in our Alien: Earth review.

Alien: Earth is receiving critical acclaim across the board - and it's packing some surprising metal bangers

Alien: Earth introduces four new alien species to the franchise and brings back the Xenomorph. Here's what we know about each of the aliens.

Earth character Boy Kavalier (Samuel Blenkin) is that he is super duper obsessed with Peter Pan. The former child prodigy fancies himself the J.M. Barrie antihero, naming his research base “Neverland” and treating each of the hybrids on the FX sci-fi series as his “Lost Boys.

Alien: Earth is no exception. The new FX series from showrunner Noah Hawley introduces several original variants of this perfect killing machine, including one that hatches out of an infected cat in one of the show's most disturbing moments so far.
