The Show We Need and Deserve
30 January 2018
It's a show about alien abductees, pardon me, experiencers. It's a show about aliens. Yet the characters on this show are so eminently human that it almost aches, how easy it is to relate to them. Every single character is someone who is just doing their best to live with their own weirdness. It's a show about connection, and the fluid nature of faith, and learning to embrace the loser that exists in all of us. It's hilarious, and engaging, and ridiculously charming. It's not packed to the gills with rich 20-somethings who have been "chosen" to "save the world" - because good god do we really need another one of those on air? We really don't. People of Earth is about people, and how great they can be, even when they're not at their best.
