I am trying not to think what might have happened if Harrison had written for the show...

The absurdism reminded me, and the level of casual body horror (enacted or implied: the moth breeders), and a lot of the ways in which the science works without anyone really bothering to poke at it. The organic tech is disturbing and Stanley, who as far as I can tell doesn't . Fire and Water never seem to have developed conventional spaceflight because with that weird umbilicus of atmosphere they don't need it: just airships to send raiding parties from one world to the other. I just felt like you could stick Stanley and Ed Chianese in a bar somewhere and they would share a lot of the same wrongheaded philosophies about what went wrong with their lives. Xev with her splice of lizard DNA and sexual hard-coding could almost certainly find someone to talk to in Saudade.

Nigel Bennett is great as Prince.

I imprinted on him in Forever Knight. He's not erasing my memories of LaCroix here, but he's encouraging my belief that I should watch him do anything, including just talk.
