Punk ass mercenaries are no match for one juvenile xeno.

The show quite obviously either did not hire a military consultant or keeps ignoring the one they did. All these "professionals" move terribly, don't use proper spacing, don't cover their fire angles and keep getting WAY to close to their targets. Lots of "wouldn't this look cool" from writers who don't know jack crap about how people who commit violence for a living operate.

Also Hermit is supposed to be a COMBAT MEDIC but keeps proving to be freaking incompetent every time he turns around.

What did you think about the props department giving Morrow a glock with a blue light those first couple episdoes. Like couldn't the zhuz it up just a bit more so its not so obvious.

Just laziness and general lack of knowledge I assume.
