Going to miss Gary Graham, Alien Nation was such a great show and if you only know him from Enterprise you need to check it out.

On May 7, 1990, the series finale of Alien Nation (1989 - 1990) based on the film (1988) of the same name aired. The final episode found human detective Matthew Sikes (Gary Graham) struggling with his feelings over his alien partner George Francisco (Eric Pierpoint) being promoted over him as well as his feelings for the alien Cathy Frankel (Terri Treas). On top of this, the detectives also were looking into possible biological terrorism being used against the alien newcomers. The series only ran for one season of 21 episodes.

Invaders (film)

Benvenuti o bentornati sul nostro blog. Nello scorso articolo abbiamo deciso di rimanere concentrati sui film in live-action e in particolar modo sulla fantascienza, ma spostandoci negli anni ’50, un periodo prolifico per il genere, e parlando de Gli Invasori spaziali. David è un ragazzino che una notte assiste all’atterraggio di un UFO nel campo vicino alla propria casa. Il ragazzo lo dice…

eric choosing to dress as king henry VIII on the children's charity day is of course extremely funny ("it's for the kids," holding a decapitated head) but also the obvious implications of this are killing me.

DVD's quote from season 2: "He gets validated by the idea of creating people in his image. Until they become him, but younger. And he can't fucking live with it." and this episode's "I used to see what my daughters could become and achieve in every successful young woman I came across. / Now you wanna come across every successful young woman?" All of his relationships he's killed for these simple crimes. Daria, DVD, Kenny, Harper, and now Rob and Yasmin underway... something sooo sinister going on here. His siblingchildwives. But it makes sense, if this is all you're taught. Eric has been at Pierpoint his whole life. Which is rare, seeing how many of our core intern cast we've lost along the seasons. Killing opposition must be the only way he learned to survive. It makes me wonder how his relationship with his mentor, Newman, was. It makes me wonder how it ended, as well.

Also with Yasmin dressing herself as Diana -- all these costumes are related to these characters' perceptions of themselves or who they'd rather be. It's so interesting to push that Eric is aware of this pattern? He's a character with historically a strange amount of emotional awareness in this job and in comparison with Harper, though he has a shield up against this, which is beginning to falter post-divorce, and the evilness he's learned from Pierpoint is becoming all there is to him

*Spoilers ahead*

I was going to rant about how Season 3 of Industry wasn't Industrying for me. I was going to bitch about the infamous "Season 3 Slump" some shows tend to suffer from. I was going to compare it to The Bear and complain that just like I hadn't gotten enough of Sydney Adamu in S3, I wasn't getting enough of Harper Stern in S3.

I was going to ask if Harper was being phased out in favor of Yasmin and Robert, and I was going to point out that as fond as I am both of those characters, neither one is "enough" to lead this show alongside Eric the way Harper is.

I was also going to call Kit Harington's casting publicity casting and point out that anybody could've been played Henry Muck, because I don't feel like Kit did anything special acting wise.

I was going to do all of that and then...last night's episode dropped.

Y'ALL. Since the end of S2 I've been waiting for Harper to rain fire and blood on PierPoint. I wanted to see how she'd do it and how long she'd draw out the pain and agony. When she started the fund with Petra and became a client of Pierpoint's (and demanded first class service from Eric), I was like, "That's cute and all...but it's not fire and blood."

Watching her scheme with Kenny, Daria, and Jackie, my jaw fell on the floor. I started screaming, "There's my Harper! THERE'S my fucking Harper Stern." And then seeing Eric blow up....

Speaking of Eric, I had no complaints about him this season. Both Ken Leung and the writers did some excellent work; I just felt I needed to see more interactions with Harper (I've dubbed their father/daughter ship Harpsichord). But depriving us worked, because he's been avoiding her all season when she clearly wants his attention, and when he finally confronted her in her office, it was AMAZING! I was soooooo happy when he finally addressed the daddy elephant in the room and she finally pointed out her "monstrous" tendencies stem from him, and PierPoint by and large. Because when we first met Harper, she was too afraid to even pick up the phone.

Eric dragged her kicking and screaming from her shell, tutored her, molded her, and taught her the art of betrayal. He made her a monster and now he's mad...that she's a monster?

And after that, Yasmin's storyline FINALLY paid off, and it was eye-opening.

You have to understand something about me; I'm asexual, so I miss a lot of cues and when it comes to sex on TV, I typically fast forward through that shit because I don't care. I don't think it contributes to the story but this time, it actually did. I now understand why Yasmin feels the impulse to get sexually involved with damn near everybody. Since S1, I found it annoying and thought it was just some dumb thing the writers were throwing in (because so many shows do that shit), but this time, it had an actual point. Yasmin's father weaponized his wealth and status so he could fuck anything with a pulse, so is it any surprise she learned to do the same?

In fact, I think the only reason she blew up at Eric at the restaurant was that she didn't find him attractive. If she did, they would've ended up in that bathroom together. Because wealth and status (and pale skin privilege) taught Yasmin that she can behave in this manner with no consequences (Harper obviously cannot).

Which brings us to the seasonal Harper/Yasmin confrontation. A part of me wants them to be friends, another part a couple, and yet another part thinks they need to permanently split up. Such is the reality of life, and a testament to the writers. Yeah, yeah...Harper's a "monster", but I don't think Yasmin is a "talentless and useless and a fucking whore." Yasmin speaks seven languages, is a deft manipulator, and simply needs to learn that screwing your coworkers, clients, and boss is unprofessional and extremely tacky.

And Harper, honey, sweetie, boo...let that man go. Your little crush should've wrapped up in S1 the minute he chose the spicy white girl who treats him like dirt. I get that Robert's an adorable sweetheart and all, but you're not his preference and you need to get over him. Matter of fact, you've been making bank for a while now - why are you still living with these people?

This is the one part of the story that really works my nerve, but I can't really criticize it because it's real. Harper likes Robert; he's a good guy she has to see everyday at both work and home. The part of her that feels both inferior AND superior to Yasmin desperately wants to "win" him from the spicy white girl who treats him like dirt. That's real. It's as annoying as Yasmin's ill-advised sexcapades, but they're young, insecure women in a cutthroat world, and it's real.

Premiering SUNDAY, AUGUST 11 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT) on HBO.

In season three, as Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing, Yasmin (Marisa Abela), Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Eric (Ken Leung) find themselves front and center in the splashy IPO of Lumi, a green tech energy company led by Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington), in a story that runs all the way to the very top of finance, media, and government. Since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Sarah Goldberg).

Industry S03E06

Yasmin Kara Hanani you'll always be loved by me

There are so many good scenes in this episode. Being a Yasmin and Harper lover how can I talk about anything but that last scene.

They were both so mean omg " A narcissist with an inferior complex" and "You are a talentless whore" Like my god I'll be dead.

Also, I love how you can see Yasmin yells and her face emotes to get her point across but Harper is more in control, barely makes an expression, and chooses her words carefully to hit where it hurts the most.

The funny thing is Harper hesitated before betraying Yas bc she adores her. There is a moment when Harper tells her "I love you" and Yas answer with "Fuck you", you can see Harper is so hurt and surprised about that answer.

I think they'll find a way to connect again. However, they're doomed because what they hate about themselves is what makes the other special. Yas wants to be respected in the business like Harper, and Harper wants Yas' privilege. They both need too much therapy, I fear.

And I can't believe Yasmin is so bad at her job. Like, maybe you're not cut up for this, babygirl. I get that she was trusting Harper, but you can't be that naive, even Sweetpea did better.

Other thoughts about the episode:

They told Rob he was expendable and I bet he hasn't done anything important since.

"You got daddy's attention now" is a crazy line.

Everyone who got fired from Pierpoint has a job so it's not that serious.

Thank godness nothing happened between Yasmin and Eric. I was about to start throwing hands.

No Henry this episode is a personal win.

I wish I could give an Emmy to Marisa, Myha'la, and Ken only for their performances in this episode and the writing team.

I need to know that season 4 is secured.
