  1. When you think after last episode it surely cant get any worse can it …yes it can ….watching this halo series is like staring into a abyss ….

  2. It's like they are trying to prove he is a human being with feelings, emotions and now a girlfriend when they don't really need to.

  3. I tried to give this show a chance and it honestly got worse and worse. Some things are just not meant to be adapted into film, and this is one of them. The terrible action scenes, really corny first person sequences, bad acting, horrendous dialogue, cheap set design, unnecessary stuff like constantly showing Master Chief’s face and his butt cheeks, I don’t know what the hell they were thinking. They really they struck gold here? I don’t know a single diehard Halo fan that is enjoying this garbage show.

  4. i agree with Hannibal Burgers, this show is not halo, it shouldn't be remembered as so, this never happened, let's all forget about it.

  5. Ese atuendo me vuelve loco REIKOO.Uno loco contigo y tienes ese cuerpo curvilíneo, hiciste un buen trabajo modelándolo también. También me gusta el último atuendo. Me encantaz cómo los cinturones de liga se.

  6. Why is no one discussing that master cheeks just committed a war crime? You can not sleep with an enemy spy in captivity. It’s illegal for NUMEROUS reasons. What is it we call when you sleep with someone you hold an extreme amount of power and authority over?? they turned chief into a wartime rapist lololololol

    This show is making me root for the covenant. These humans are all awful people and deserve to be glassed.

  7. As many posted elsewhere, the show should have started with the Covenant glassing a planet.
    Instead only in Episode 8 via a small clip does the general audience who knows nothing Halo gets shown what the Covenant threat actually is

  8. My issue is: "Where are all the adults in this show?"
    NO (human) character displays maturity, emotional regulation, or even passable civil behavior. Instead, competence is arrogance, duty just dissociation, and everything else rule by juvenile volatility.

    The next question is: "Are there any adults writing this show?"
    The lack of nuanced realism using such a limited emotional palate is not just lazy, it robs the viewer of any dramatic surprise, be it plotline or character arc.

    Thus far, the series has been a carnival of stereotypes.

  9. This whole show is like a DOOM tv show and Doomguy isn't angry at demons, instead he's just passive agressive towards them because they don't like rabbits

  10. I don't mind most of the things they did in the other episodes, but this was f–king ridiculous.

    There is absolutely no reason for what they did in this episode. To go from "Why should I trust you" to "I trust you" to sleeping with an enemy being held captive in pretty much minutes…. These writers need to be unemployed. By the end of this episode, almost all of the characters were really in the same place that it started.

    Even more idiotic, the crack marketing team put information on Makee's profile 2 weeks ago that they were researching her energy dagger. Yet here she is, still had it.

    At this point, they could have put the whole useful story of Season 1 into two episodes. They didn't need to drag out the spartan program origins over 8 episodes, or create so many internal and interpersonal conflicts that you forget you are fighting a 20+ year against aliens who are committing multi-planet interstellar genocide. Its as if they said "We only have an effects budget for 3 battles, find a way to stretch the story into 9 episodes"

    I just don't understand how Paramount/CBS keeps hiring the worst writers and is the destroyer of franchises

  11. @11:07 such a cop out. How about we stop making excuses for bad writing, and call out these corporations sucking the soul out of fan favorite IPs? The "not cannon", "different universe", "different timeline", etc. Are all scapegoats for lazy "writers" that do zero research.

  12. This show is horrible and has completely lost track of what Halo is. They should have been a Military War Story about Master Chief being the inspiration of the Human Covenant war. This show is just bad.

  13. Un-subbing. Woke Garbage, that GI supports. If you were gamers you wouldn't support something this off topic in the universe. Guessing they asked you to do it. No integrity as gamers. Later! To think I had a sub to your magazine for 2 decades, and sold them as an SGA at gamestop.
