The reason they wrote "Choose humanity" on all of the posters is because they made all the human characters so unbearable, they knew people would start rooting for the aliens to wipe them all out.
Pretty solid theory.
@Rin's little sheepling it’s not a theory it’s straight facts
That makes complete sense. It did really seem as though it was engineered revulsion.
This is exactly what i was thinking, Is there a kill counter somewhere yet lol
i think this isnt a wrong decision tbh i think its meant to be the voice in the crew's head thats saying sacrifice yourself for humanity, still a shit show
The woman who excitedly announced that Another Life was coming back for a Season 2 was by far the best piece of acting I’ve seen related to that show. She did a brilliant job acting like she was actually excited.
And she looked creepy af.
I read that as "She did a brilliant job acting like she actually existed"
i mean has everyone forgotten about Battlestar Galactica?
This is a dead meme but, they had us in the first half not gonna lie
BUUURNN
What I'm hearing is that Netflix is ignoring good content while promoting bad content.
So Netflix is turning into UA-cam?
_This one knows too much._
They still have Big Mouth on their service so...yeah, that's a very accurate statement.
@@vampenga9277 and they kicked Bojack off
You give Netflix too much credit!
They're making the good stuff bad as well.
@@madcow4863 How do you know that bojack had bad views
Bruh imagine if the marketing for iron man was just “choose iron man”
Realistically, if they made an iron man 4, all the marketing would need to do is say "we made iron man 4"
And that will guerenteed get 1 billion dollars.
The difference there is that for Iron Man, that tagline would be completely unnecessary, as Tony Stark is such a well-written character with an entertaining egotistical persona along with an extremely compelling development arc, on top of one of the coolest gimmicks of any mainstream super hero. Nobody in their right mind would choose his antagonists; beyond the surface level idea of rooting for the good guy to overcome the bad guy, the villains are pretty weakly written in comparison.
Another Life needs the tagline "choose humanity", because the human characters are so poorly written that some people might actually want to see the aliens wipe them out. They have to make sure that you know who you're supposed to root for, because watching the show, you get confused on who's the bad guy.

Thats ok.
We others can do the responsible stuff and such.
Its fine; really.
Netflix's entire strategy is to basically constantly keep creating new originals to make it look like they have loads of IP and then cancelling them after 2-3 seasons when they have no more use for them. They clearly don't give a fuck if the show actually has a diehard following and critical acclaim like Bojack and Daredevil. Many disgruntled showrunners/cast and crew have vouched for this upon the constant sudden cancellations of projects they poured their heart and soul into. Charlie Cox (Daredevil) has even remarked on how hard it is for him to get roles since he was so used to not making eye contact due to acting as a blind guy for 3 years. They were full steam ahead for a 4th season and just got dropped out of nowhere. Fuck Netflix. All they care about is new subscriptions and paying exorbitant amounts for the rights for shite like Friends.
@Prometheus 306 eh stranger things has a cult following soo
@@ciararyan1871 So? It's still awful.
Daredevil cancelling had nothing to do with Netflix it was actually Kevin Feige. But Daredevil is returning for Spider-Man 3 anyway.
Sense 8 was awesome 😎
Okay but you can’t fault Netflix for the whole drama with their marvel shows, blame Disney
Netflix Exec #1: Ok, Disney+ has just launched. They have Marvel, Star Wars, all their animated classics, and everything under the Fox umbrella. What do we do to compete?
Netflix Exec #2: Greenlight Another Life Season 2.
Honestly man maybe it’s just the nostalgia talking but Netflix has been so dry lately imo, I’ve been using D+ a lot more.
I always disliked most Netflix shows.
Almost every show I watched has the same set and story.
Evil, way to lucky bad guy finds the main characters and starts manipulate every single one of them without problems.
And its this annoying manipulating thing combined with the massive luck by the bad guy, but also stupidity by the good guys, that stretches through a whole season and it just pisses me off.
Could say, the bad guy is kind of a Mary Sue.
It was the same with Locke & key, Lost in Space, iron fist S2...
My opinion is that if you give either your money, you're just being lazy and you're actively supporting manipulative business practices that constantly work to milk the customer out of every dollar they possibly can while doing the *bare* minimum to please them *just* enough that you'll throw your money at them.
You can *very* easily get anything posted on Netflix, Disney+, or any other streaming service, or any media at all really for *free* . This is our best tool to fight against big businesses trying to constantly fuck us over
Netflix Exec #1: You son of a bitch, I'm in
Xvladin dude it’s only 5.83 a month and piracy websites usually have terrible video quality. And if everyone took your advice, there’d be no more TV shows or movies because they wouldn’t be funded/supported by consumers and there’d be no way for the creators to keep track of how many people are watching something.
Netflix: *cancels bojack*
Also Netflix: *Hmm yes Big Mouth needs another season*
@@Josep_Hernandez_Lujan Who gives a fuck about reviews? It's a show made for idiots by idiots.
@@eleanorrigby1580 normally, tv executives care about reviews!
Ah excuse me Im a teenager and big mouth is so RELIABLE so I’m need you untargeted ass to take that back
@@eleanorrigby1580 I personally like Big Mouth, and as someone who started Bojack last week I love it so far. I wouldn't say BM is a bad show, but it's just really fucking stupid
@@Josep_Hernandez_Lujan I thought what I seen of it was pretty shite, not "Another Life" shite but it was the same tier as modern Family Guy
It’s such a testament to the writers of Bojack that they were able to take what was clearly 2 seasons of content and make it a perfect ending regardless. I’m honestly never gonna forgive Netflix for fucking them over though. Screw Another Life
@Sunlok wait ... BoJack was cancelled ?
Sunlok yeah, I think BoJack ended fine, but Tuca and Bertie is annoying
I dunno about you but I'd rather see a show end than become Fairly Odd Parents. If it's cancelled when they still have good episodes, it is beloved and revered as a classic. FOP is shameless and shit because it was dragged out for 5 seasons longer than it needed to be.
I said that but what I meant was that, if a show runs for so long and keeps getting viewers, Netflix will run it right into the ground. Character development is great and I love this show but I'd still rather not see it run I to the ground like a plane crash.
Bojack Horseman is in my top 2 favorite adult animated series ever, right behind The Boondocks (sans Season Four). But I don’t think it could have expected a more appropriate ending for that show.
Even after re-litigating the 1 Hz/second, still nobody has mentioned what I see as the biggest problem with it. He's talking about music. If he meant to say "lower it to 1 Hz", that can only ever be one single note, and that note will be lacking its overtones. If he intended to say "lower it by 1 Hz/second", then the entire piece would be shifted downwards, but it would also become extremely out of tune. This is because the pitch of a note is caused by its relative frequency against other notes. An "octave" is the interval between two of the same note, and that is not a specific gap in frequency, its a ratio of 1:2
Like, the note middle C is usually 262 Hz in western music, and the next C above it is 524. After 100 seconds of reducing the frequency by 1 Hz/second, middle C would be 162, and high C would be 424 even though it should be 324, and now it's so badly out of tune that the music becomes unrecognizable. This is true of every other interval between any two notes, as they are all based on ratios like this.
If you don't mind me asking, what is "C"?
@@nnnnmhughuuhhjiijj9457 he is referring to C as in music notes
c d e f g a h c (pls don t kill me for the order)
@@nnnnmhughuuhhjiijj9457C is just a note. Like all notes, it can be played in different octaves, which are 8 steps apart.
Middle C, the specific C I was talking about, is the note exactly between Treble and Bass clef, on the first ledger line below Treble and above Bass. It being exactly between the two main clefs makes it useful as a reference point.
@@ekrotte8714 *a b c, not h
You all forgetr that if you drop such a loud music to 1 Hz.... everyone nearby WILL DIE. Infrasound fuck with your heart and nervous system
They also canceled “I am not okay with this” which is honestly one of the best shows of last year
Such an underrated comment and to be honest I am also very angry that they canceled I’m not OK with this
I AM SO ANGRY. THEIR REASONING SUCKED.
Lol yh everyone I know who watched it loved it. It had such a good cast as well. I really wanted a season 2!!

"Haveing seen the show multiple times to review it.."

I mean yeah, that’s how business works. If they make money, they win, wether it’s good or bad publicity.
Not true, stars wars battlefront 2. Try telling me the bad publicity helped the game in any way. I avoided that shit like the plague and wish genuine harm comes to the people that thought "it's star wars people will buy it no matter how shit it is"

Another Life is like if Sharknado took itself seriously.
So you mean like the first Sharknado movie?
That series only got good in the 2nd part when they acknowledged how insane everything was
@@elana1463 I think they just ramped up the insanity for the second Sharknado because they felt that they needed to one up themselves to maintain viewership. I don't think they ever took the first one seriously. The ambiguity of whether or not it was a parody just made it all the more surreal.
"I feel a great way to demonstrate how stupid Another Life is is to just tell you what happens in it."
Truer words have never been spoken.
SHUT UP. WHAT HAVE YOU WATCHED THIS YEAR? STAR WARS? JUST TO COMPLAIN. NETFLIX WERE WILLING TO INVEST 200 MILLION IN A ORIGINAL MOVIE, AND YET YOU COMPLAIN LIKE A FATBOY DUMBOY.

Oh, don't forget about the masterpiece of writing that is someone's spine *falling out of their back*. A human being, most likely with help from other human beings wrote that into existence on some poor sheet of paper that was about to become this shitshow of a script.

@@lorddrayvon1426 What would the plot be of this show from your puppy? I feel like it would largely be dependent on her breed. Like a Labrador would write a sitcom with laugh tracks but a German Shepherd would write a badass action movie.
@@EdenHolder the point was to that dogs, a species less intelligent that us, and the youngest if thier type can write a more inteligent script. There was nothing clever in that and no greater meaning.
@@EdenHolder Kinda wanna see a show/movie written by a dog now.
@Sain | I don’t really think a German Shepard would write an action movie. I know they tend to be seen as fierce guard dogs, but every German Shepard I’ve might has been so calm and kind, more so than, say, a Jack Russel or Bison Frise.
"Obviously I'm going to choose humanity" Now hold on right there buddy, If this is the best humanity can send for first contact no wonder the aliens are hostile.

they cancelled Anne with an E, a show that has a wide international fanbase with great reviews and encouraging viewership numbers.
but they're bringing back /this/ show for season 2.
that's it! *flips table* there is no god, I give up!!
Even satan wouldn’t approve of Netflix
Anne with an E was a co-production between Netflix and CBC.
@@FlattRas I know, and I know it was more of CBC's decision, but screw it, it stings that *this* is gonna go for another season, even if they already shot it before season 1 dropped.
Nah. There IS a god, but he gave up on humanity like.... let me see real quick.... uh.... since like we were created in the first place...
@@andre_601 less that he gave up and more that we fucked things up so badly that the guy's been trying to keep us from completely destroying ourselves ever since.
Bojack Horseman will definitely go down in history as one of the greatest artistic productions in this era of television/streaming. The idea that Netflix would have their hands full of pure gold like that and toss it away so they can scoop up fistfuls of dog shit instead is just incredible.
Makes me reeeaaaally concerned about the fate of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, the Lost In Space reboot, and Locke & Key. It makes me think that any show on Netflix right now that is even slightly sophisticated, or a little more niche, or just not pandering to Happy Madison productions guzzling nimrods who think The Ranch is the goddamned zenith of comedy tv shows, will be cancelled by these Netflix execs who wouldn’t know how to market a slightly more niche show to save the lives of their families from a blood thirsty pack of trained attack Tigers.
F is for family is a great show on Netflix, and the irishman deserved 2 oscars
@Popcultureguy3000 | I’m worried about AoR in particular. LiS has gotten a second season, so it’s got a better chance of getting a third, but AoR is pretty niche and I really fear that they’ll cancel it.
Epicword that’s not why it was cancelled, it was cancelled because corporate groupthink says animation labor unions are *eeeeeviiillll!*
ehh to be honest if you compare the visual appeal and general vitality of the animation to that of the Simpsons in the 90s it really does not compare, and visuals is an important aspect of screen based art and media. The story always feels too subservient to the 'realness' cliche to me, I am biased against it as I dislike streaming services as a rule.
As for the frequency, you can't "drop" a song into one frequency. That would keep it from being music. Also, one Hertz is such a low frequency that it would take several seconds to even understand that a note _might_ be being played. It's so flawed on so many levels I really wish Netflix would just stop making things.
wait... random thought... did the writers of another life think that infra-sound was reached by slowing down the changing pitches of the music to one hertz per second, and that doing that would make it unhearable to our human ears?
@@donovandelozier7156
Yes
well they made bojack stranger things... and I'm blanking
@@awesomegaymer5786
...wtf are you talking about?
@@Richard_Nickerson he said Netflix should just stop making things
Netflix shows are typically shot as two "seasons" shot over one production year, so I doubt this series was "greenlit" for another season as much as it was already shooting the second half of the production year as the first season dropped. It's just industry jargon to make it sound positive. It wasn't picked up, it was already being shot.
This is also the reason why risky projects can have 1.5-2 years time between the first season releasing and the second season releasing.
The only thing that needs to be shot is me after hearing that Another Life even made it past editing.
@Surprised Char fucking brilliant 😂😂
@@surprisedchar2458 Saving pennies by not repainting the burnt out mobile home, really.
I just wish the show was shot.... in the head. Like for real...
My theory on Netflix's decision to cancel shows, is they want to keep getting more and more different audiences subscribing, so they have to keep churning out different kinds of shows to turn heads. Of course, they can't afford to keep all the shows that already exist, so they start shuffling shows out and it's really stupid.
Exactly, noones going to cancel their Netflix subscription, so the people on Netflix are unhappy but it appeals to new audiences who arent subscribers.
@@cassi5420 The problem with that stat is that... so few shows go past 3-4 seasons anymore, its instantly creating its own confirmation bias.
@@IsaacIsaacIsaacson it's more of a survivorship bias than just confirmation, i think? or something like that. But yeah, they're creating their own feedback loop that's sending their quality down the drain.
That theory actually makes a lot of sense, wtf
5:22 entire time she was talking I was just super worried because she’s smiling like she’s being held at gunpoint
...perhaps she actually was. If I was an actor in this show and had any functional brain I would rather punch myself unconscious than announcing a second season with a stupid smile...
Also, even if the ship where flying in the middle of a spaghetti cloud, shouldn't the engineers made the ship some kinda of navigation system that don't depend on how well you can see in space?
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
I mean this could kinda be some sort of be an excuse for the show I guess...
If you have advanced futuristic sensors which perhaps use some form of lasers to detect up coming objects... perhaps dark matter stops these lasers from working? Though of course this is fucking dumb cause who would make a main sensory system on a space ship which can be blocked by like 50% of the matter in the known universe...

I saw the koala and was like "whoa, I didn't know I already commented!"

but you can to a degree (lookup gravitational lensing)

Also, you can't change the pitch of music by 1 Hz/second.
Music is a composition of notes. Imagine 2 notes, one at 800Hz, the other at 400Hz in the original. They have a harmonic relation of 2:1.
Now you drop the pitch 1Hz/second for 100 seconds. So is one note now 700Hz and the other 300Hz? No, that's impossible because however much you'd reduced the pitch, the harmonic relations of the notes would remain the same, and 700/300 =/= 800/400.
And there is no "base" frequency of the music.
Reducing the music by one Hz per second is MEANINGLESS for reasons that are separate to the fact the subtitles show he said "to" and not "by", and the fact that it happened very quickly.
Oh wow, this actually makes sense to me now. I saw another comment trying to explain it but I didn't get it. You explained it perfectly!
yeah, pitching things down by a hertz offset rather than a ratio really breaks music, i tried it with a resynthesis engine on a synth (harmor) and it sounded
not good
@@SimonWoodburyForget Yes because of harmonic relations. Think about it.
@@SimonWoodburyForget I don't even know what you're talking about.
Everything I've said is correct. Reducing an audio recording by some number of Hz is meaningless.
@@grimawormtongue1949 It isnt 'meaningless', per se, as it is possible, it would just sound horrible as all the harmonic frequencies wouldn't have ratios. There would still be sound produced, it would just sound awful.
“Alright, I’m gonna fucking accelerate this pen”
Yeets the pen, smashing a hole into the wall. The pen accelerates. It’s going around 100 mph now, but it’s not stopping. It’s going around mach 3 now. The pen doesn’t burn up or slow down. It’s moved past lightspeed now, traveling back in time. It reaches maximum speed. The pen is the cause of the big bang.

Most Netflix original series suck. They either instantly suck or start to suck when season 2 or 3 airs.

Reminds me about how I believe interstellar had scientists figure out how the light would move around a black hole as they wanted an accurate visual. Might be wrong, but I think that hadn't quite been figured out till then
"Of course I'm going to choose humanity, they're the ones who aren't trying to kill humanity"
John Cena: "ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?"
See, if I were writing this show, “Another Life” would refer to the fact that being on the ship is a separate life from being on earth and requires living and making decisions differently. “Choose humanity” would then be not choosing the physical species of humanity, but the emotional humanity, i.e. morals. And choosing to stick to your morals in the face of unprecedented consequences.
Then again, if I wrote this show, I’d quit writing for good.
But like, that's a whole different story. At what point does rewriting the source material go from "fixing the story" to writing an entirely different story?
Like Another Life's premise is such blatant dickcheese and this isn't. This is leagues above whatever Another Life is going for; do you see what I'm getting at? It can't be saved without literally being a different story. That's how bad it is.
You mean the platform that sponsors all Adam Sandler and his friends' movies doesn't know what it is doing? The hell you say.
I read somewhere that Netflix is going to renew "Another Life" in effort to combat the newly-competitive Streaming market, what with the four other major streaming services that cropped up recently.
...as for why "Another Life" specifically...my guess? It's easy to rush production, since clearly they don't need to spend time on the writing or making sure the production values are top-notch or anything. Quality takes time, and right now Netflix seems more concerned with Quantity, because... uh... because.
I mean, Netflix green-lit the film "Bright". Clearly they don't give a damn about quality.
I don't know. I would need to try to write something as bad as Another Life. I would need to take time to make it stupid; intentionally bad.
And bright 2...
Bright at least was a pretty good and original concept, it just had poor execution (from what others have said and I've seen). While Another Life certainly could've been made to stand out, it has a lot more to compete against.
As a brain off cop drama Bright wasn't unwatchable. Another life was like watching a car crash caused by the driver watching a plane that was crashing into a side of a mountain that caused a rockslide that derailed a train carrying explosive LNG next to an elementary school full of small children.
I fully plan to not watch season 2 and just watch Jay's review of it.
Netflix: We're out of ideas, get the worse show renewed.
Everyone: You can't be serious...
Netflix: Do it god damn it!
At first when I heard Bojack was ending I thought the creatives just thought it was a good place to end especially with Tuca and Bertie being a thing, now I learned that they cancelled both prematurely, I think I'm starting to see why everyone else mocks Netflix originals relentlessly, maybe I was just lucky or easily amused but most of the ones I've actually seen have been pretty decent, but to throw away Bojack and keep this, okay yeah I'm beginning to see why it's so mocked.
Good news; Tuca and Bertie was Picked up by Adult Swim for 2021.
Wait, they actually cancelled it? I could've sworn the show had just run its natural course.
"The series received numerous accolades, including four Critics' Choice Television Awards for Best Animated Series, three Annie Awards and two Writers Guild of America Awards. It was also nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards, including two for Outstanding Animated Program."-wikipedia
Best series I've ever watched. Netflix execs are idiots.
Or the animators unionized and then suddenly the show quit existing for an unrelated reason
Luckily for the Bojack had a smooth landing with the cancellation. I didn't even know the show was cancelled. Just thought it ended naturally. Some thing smight've been a bit rushed maybe. Like Princess Carelyn's and her assistant's romance, and Diane and her boyfriend. I might be just nickpicking.
Many other shows that have been cancelled have just rushed everything, crashed and burned (cough! Steven Universe Cough! Even tho it's kids show but still)
And now one of the creators of Bojack is working with another amazing artist, and they're creating Undone for Amazon. Now let's hope Amazon knows what they have and cherish it.
Netflix cancelled “Mystery Science Theater”.
Because people weren’t binge watching it.
I didn't particularly like the new MST3K but I only watched the 1st episode. I'll stick with Rifftrax
@@nautdead3197 I liked the first episode, but the series got even better as it went on. Cry Wilderness, Mac and Me, Atlantic Rim, and more are classic episodes.
Get the fuck out of here, they cancelled it?! I loved that show. The humor was much more up to date and I found myself laughing way more than the old seasons (which I still enjoy.) I hate Felicia Day and Patton Oswalt but I could tolerate them through this. At least we have the MST3k twitch channel still.
love that this video is 2 years old, and aged like fine wine with netflix's shitty decision making still proving everything said in this video correct. Inside Job got cancelled but other shitty shows still get to live, a series that i heard nothing but positive things about got cancelled
I always like hearing praise for Bojack Horseman. Masterpiece of a show that somehow still feels like a well-kept secret.

And I'm pretty sure they're still swimming in debt.
Probably helps that their competition probably flooded them with saboteurs to sink their control on that market, or maybe its to drop the stock value to be bought cheap?
They were like a billion dollars in debt. And they recently "borrowed" another billion to green light a bunch of shows and films.
Gotta say, personally... I've found their recent "Originals" to be pretty meh. With one or 2 exceptions.

Netflix: Why do I hear Imperial march?
"In classic sci fi..."
Damn, seeing when those franchises were good, hurts so much.....
Also, Netflix better not cancel The Dragon Prince, because they think the hate is strong now, well, just wait and see if they dare touch that show....
They renewed The Dragon Prince for a season 4. But, Netflix refused to tell the writers that until after season 3, so they had to scrap their 6-season plan and rewrite season 3 as if it could be their last. If any part of season 3 seemed rushed, that's the reason why.
Netflix: even when we have a good show, we have to be stupid about it!
@@matthewmuir8884 Honestly, I didn't mind that ending. Compare how that final feels rushed to how GOT S8 feels rushed. TDP writers did really good with what they were given.
Very glad it's getting more seasons though :)
@@mattevans4377 Oh yeah; it definitely wasn't a train wreck like GoT season 8; I was just pointing out the reason behind a lot of season 3's problems. I think season 3 was pretty good, but I couldn't help but notice the rush and wonder how much better it could've been if Netflix told them they were getting a season 4.
If they do that, there will be actual Protests
What on earth is the dragon prince?

Who cares about the minor Hertz thing? Has everybody forgotten the "surprise" moon?
Can anyone tell me how they missed the moon? Please? I wanna know.
@@-JaggedGrace- It was "behind" the planet so they couldn't see it. -.-
What's weirder is that the moon wasn't causing any problems till they noticed it. Did it just get there or something?

nobody argued the moon because it was undefendable.
The giant celestial cloud of spaghetti bolognaise is the eternal throne of our lord and savior, the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Stephen Gillie all hail the spaghetti monster
Our pasta, who art in a colander, draining be your noodles. Thy noodle come, Thy sauce be yum, on top some grated Parmesan. Give us this day our garlic bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trample on our lawns. And lead us not into vegetarianism, but deliver us some pizza, for thine is the meatball, the onion, and the bay leaves, forever and ever. R'Amen.
@@EighTy-yv4jw R'amen brothers! Can I get some R'amens
I want to watch a show like that, but it takes every ridiculous thing like it completely serious. Like, no stupid "funny" humor, which falls flat 100% of the time, just a show like this but where all the wrong science is replaced with shit like this.
"The cloud of spaghetti is so thick, we need to fly around it. We might hit a meatball."

That's what I was thinking. Granted it's still kinda dumb, but I guess "Alien" was already taken.
@@lavaleader3455 im so glad this show has a shitty name. imagine if it had a GOOD name. then there's one less good name for a future good show to use

They didn't cancel Castlevania yet
@@B0K0691 Castlevania ain't gonna compete with Clone Wars unfortunately.
Daredevil, and all the Marvel TV/Netflix partnerships, were cancelled because Disney decided to bring them all in-house and continue or restart on Disney+. Netflix, having demonstrated that the subscription-internet-streaming-video-entertainment-product is profitable, has now led to countless imitators, which means that now getting access to every 'channel' out there means spending more than what a premium cable package would have cost back in the day.
Of course one could always risk illegal pirate means of getting their entertainment, but we aren't supposed to say that out loud in public.

Didn’t realise Bojack got cancelled I thought they had decided to end it, but in that final season it felt weird like too much was happening, so hearing it got cancelled makes sense they where trying to get a satisfying ending. Unlike a lot of shows that have done the same.
There was supposed to be another season
Still reckon it was the best the folks at BoJack could've done given their constraints
"Drop the FREQUENCY down to one HERTZ a second"
Was it only my teacher who slapped us if we didn't get the units correct on our physics tests in high school?
Btw, 1 Hz / s = 1/s / s = 1/s^2 ... which is NOT frequency
So my teacher should slap this show at a frequency of 69 Hz
You are right, Hz/s is not a frequency.
But if we play on the idea of lowering the actual frequency (Hz) by 1 unit each second (Hz/s), you would lower the frequency by 1 hertz a second. - But you are still right, Jay is right too.
Liggliluff You are so dumb.
Netflix cancelled Jupiter's Legacy, cancelled Bojack, cancelled Sense 8... renewed another life... fucking hell
how did she say "season two" without changing her facial expression from a smile.
Dunno if anybody said this already but Netflix didn't cancel Daredevil, it was Disney because they didn't want any Disney properties being on any other platform than Disney+. And yeah, Daredevil was the best superhero show and one of my favourite shows of all time FeelsBadMan.
Also, I'm happy there's gonna be a season 2... Then I can get to watch an hour long video of you shitting on it.
I can't remember where, but I heard somewhere that they had to let a couple years pass because of the contract with netflix and then they were gonna bring the show back in disney+
Sir Joey The White he said that in the video already
Disney has killed a lot of things.
Gargoyles :(
Spectacular Spiderman :(
Jay mentioned it 9:36
If they reboot it Charlie cox better be daredevil
Also props for referring to Tuca and Bertie as "a well-made show that just didn't resonate with me personally". So many people have shit all over that show, just because it wasn't made for the express purpose of being watched by them. I know so many people who it absolutely resonated with and I would have loved to see what it could do with another season.
I'm genuinely excited for season 2 because it means we get another great review X)
I am super hype for season 2. Your video on season 1 is one of my favourite videos i think youve made.
It still killed me that they have an FTL drive but need to slingshot around the sun to travel fast. Forced plot problem engage!
At least Castlevania is good so far
God I hope they don't ruin it
I actually really liked the ending of season 2 and thought it was a great way to stop the show. It resolved the major conflict while giving interesting hints about the futures of the side characters and their goals and motivations, giving the sense of a world that would keep growing and thrive with interesting people and stories. But I don't know if they needed to show us all those stories. I'm praying that season 3 will be good. But my deeply ingrained cynicism is whispering dark thoughts in my ears.
@@leonhartdragomir8948 I think that even if the story is worse than 1&2, the writing of Trevor, Sypha and Alucard will still make it enjoyable to watch
Castlevania was garbage.
@@MrSilentProtagonist what issues did you have with it?
It's good but I feel like this story should already be over and if they wanted to do more they could go with my boy Richter
How serendipitous I just finished watching your first Another Life video.
As someone who regularly watches MythBusters in the background while simultaneously playing Kerbal Space Program, the fact that this show is getting another season hurts my soul.
He definitely says "drop the frequency down TO 1 hertz a second," but come on, Jay, verifying this by Netflix's closed captioning is like verifying a referee's decision with the angry drunk sports fan on the bar stool next to you.
No one has ever replied to this so I just thought I'd let you know that damn that's a good fucking analogy
Years later and I feel cheated Jay Exci did not cover season 2.
Omfg the guy who said drop the frequency by one hertz a second is Goku from Dragonball Evolution 😭😭😭 poor guy can’t catch a break
i knew i saw him somewhere xD
I watched 4 episodes and got tired of them creating problems by having just the dumbest people in spaceflight. How were these the people picked to go to space?
My head cannon is they just had enough of them in earth and just tossed them off to space. Which backfired
I believe like Jay Exci's theory that a guy looked for people that where kicked out of a bar makes sense here....
Jay's voice doesn't match his face...
PS: Jay is a national treasure that must be protected at all costs

I wish bojack horseman got one more season the writers clearly wanted to do it
okay just to make it clear i only watched like 2 mins of this vid, i have no idea who this channel is or the show it's talking about. But i love when people rant about shit on the internet. SO GOOD JOB BUDDY LOVE YOUR VID!!!!!!!
I’m STILL salty about Netflix cancelling the OA and Sense8, and they renew THIS?
The OA was an interesting concept but the end of season one was just so ridiculous I didn't even bother with season two.
@@SeattleScotty You should watch season 2, I thought that it was even better than season 1 but don't watch the trailer for season 2 though.
@@SeattleScotty i didn't like the ending of season 1 but season 2 did go some way towards justifying it and was generally way better
OA? What's that? I'm just interested but I don't know what that is...
Wait! The oa got cancelled 😭 But we don't have an ending! Right???
the thing with dark matter isnt just dumb because it isnt "dark"
dark matter doesnt even INTERACT with anything, it only can have a gravitational pull, but that wouldnt be a problem when flying through it
it can be a problem when seeing through it though. google "gravitation lensing".
It felt like bojack got rushed this season, still great but I think they could have told more of the story and now I find out it got canned but another life didn't
@V-Rex Diane's arc and Todd's reunion with his mother felt kinda off, maybe if I watch the show from beginning to end I could find more flaws but the show still is better than most of the garbage on Netflix
They had one or two seasons to finish things up probably. But Unionizing baaaad, so they cut them off
It felt rushed BECAUSE it got canned.
Todd's "arc" of the season was like 40 seconds and felt really weird and PC just randomly got married. You can really tell it wasn't supposed to end so soon
@@mrminecraftcubeable Diane's arc was well done in my opinion still could've been fleshed out but yeah todds was sad cos I think if they had another season that would've been a great story and could've been very emotional but what we got was okay
I could understand for the dark matter as if the gravity was strong enough it would bend light so they couldn’t see anything (like a black hole) but they would have the much bigger problem that they are about to get crushed by gravity.
At 5:09 when you said “if that sounds amazing to you then check this out” I got a commercially
9:23 - "The second dish, _Another Life,_ is a bowl of molten lead."
What?! Why would a restaurant have a dish like that on its menu? No human being could eat even a pinch of it without dying a horrible death!! What inhuman alien creatures are they serving these dishes to?!
...Ooooh, I think I just understood the "Choose Humanity" slogan!
Yeah, what kind of weird lifeform eats molten lead?
*Slowly hides lead-resistant spoon*
Bojack had kind of run it's course though. It could've gone longer, but it ended pretty well, without going on too long
I can already imagin season 2 ending with a cliffhanger just like season 1
The name "Another Life" makes it sound like it's supposed to take place on a human colony where people are trying to start, well, another life
The aliens would indeed be
ANOTHER LIFE
Imagine making a show thats so bad, people start making parodies of it that are better than the original.

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency was cancelled after two seasons...
I love that show and would have loved to see its continuation, but it's probably for the best, given that the creator is apparently a huge asshole. I'm just happy it went out on a strong note.
@@adammgolan there is a separation between art and artist though. The stuff coming out about Whedon doesn't make me not wish Firefly wasn't cancelled.
@@subjectd6985 Of course. I'm not saying that you shouldn't separate art and artist. It's ok to enjoy art retroactively, even if you don't like/endorse the artist. I just don't think it's good to support that artist, if they generate toxic work environments or harass people. It would also just suck if the show was revived with Landis at the helm, and the cast, who I respect, decided to come back on. Then they would lose my respect. If an actor decides not to return for a third season, then they might get replaced or written out of the show. No matter what, I don't see a version of a third season that wouldn't ruin the entire show for me in some way.
That was actually not Netflix:s fault. Every film/series license by Douglas Adams' work is property of BBC and they cancelled it.
@@asmahasmalaria8596 the BBC is evil
Daredevil was my favorite show on Netflix. I'm hopeful it will end up on Disney+. Another Life on the other hand was so terrible I quit halfway through the first episode and never returned. Apparently that was a sound decision.
AOS is on Disney+, so it's not impossible for content they made with other companies to end up being on there.
Disney+ wont have any r-rated content
Yeah, they didn't cancel it just because they wanted it to be exclusive to Disney+, they cancelled it because Disney is family friendly and can't have R-rated content. They could very well have made their own version of Daredevil and no one would bat an eye, but we can't have superheroes fucking, so there.
On one hand, it's kinda alright that Daredevil got canceled, so Disney doesn't ruin it. At the same time, though, it ended with just enough of a tease for what's to come that it's kinda infuriating
@@blankname3816 it being cancelled and it being ruined by Disney to me is equally bad. They could have let them at least finish the shows (given that Punisher and Jessica Jones also had shit endings)
Seeing Netflix whole Cuties film mess, I’d say the title of this video stills holds up.

Fuck you
I've made two comments on your review of season 1, one each time I sat down to watched it. Your video is one of my favourite reviews of all time. I'm not joking and I want explain why. The second comment I left was about how the phrase: "It's not a surprise moon". Could actually become something people genuinely say, in reference to the quality bullshit they've just been exposed to. The first comment was about how I am one of those people that can turn off their brain and enjoy trash, so much so that I enjoyed this show on my first viewing. And that was how I found your video and channel, which doubled my overall enjoyment because the show is an absolute dumpster fire.
With the second comment, it reminds me of Tomska's terminology of 'fish and glitter', where a sponsor is being overly controlling and doesn't respect your creative freedom.
P.s. "fish and glitter" was from when he was making a video sponsored by Oreo, and one of the people in charge said to change all the guns to fish, and all the explosions to glitter.
That's Netflix for you: Fling a thousand things at the wall, see what sticks...
And then collect the things that don't stick for you to recycle...
I've heard of directors writing terrible scripts for movies because they don't want to make said movie but are legally required to. Maybe something like that is going on here, but corporate didn't even bother reading it, leaving the producers in a weird situation.
Honestly- I get people who like really bad media. All I need to enjoy a show/movie is pretty colours moving in pretty directions. Monkey brain see, monkey brain press "I'm still watching"
I appreciate the praise of Bojack Horseman and T&B so much
the thing with dark matter is inevitable with lazy writers - sometimes it even have tentacles
But the tentacles are not the dark matter itself but satans using as a gateway to get through from the Danger Zone, learn some physics.
Yes! Season two review!
This is one of the only shows where i have thought "holy shit this is genuinly really bad" instead of thinking the show just wasnt for me.
What were the others?

@@sevensins3584 heard of the show, had no idea it was Netflix or even that level of "holy shit."
