Space Force: Season 2, Episode 7 “The Hack” (B+)
It’s a shame that this season only has seven episodes, and I sincerely hope this won’t be the last we’ll see of this show. That’s especially true since we only got a brief tease of Jon Lovitz as Tony’s father and the rivalry between Tony and his sister, which I’d love to see more of in the future. Things started in this finale by loking up, with Mark trying to get his staff raises, Adrian reacting positively to Chan spilling the beans about his job offer, and the malfunction in the vending machine giving Adrian a lifetime supply of free candy. But then the sprinklers going off and the satellite losing communication gave way to the power going out, which I was thrilled about since it presented the perfect opportunity for the group to have to quickly write fake dialogue that could convince the hackers that they had done a much better job than they really had. Tony taking on Adrian’s part and Brad making noises as if Adrian the janitor was riding in on horseback were particular highlights. Angela having a panic attack in the elevator was also fun, with Chan calming her down and explaining why it was that he kept his glasses on during sex. Angela saving the day by taking over piloting duties and then deciding to stay when Mark promoted her to major was great, as was Chan realizing that he had much more to learn from Adrian. Even Erin isn’t going anywhere, ready to explore the rainforests of Colorado. I’m not sure there could have been a more fitting way to end the season than for them to realize that what Mark thought was a smudge on the lens was actually an asteroid headed towards Earth, with Adrian deciding that leading the team in “Kokomo” was the best way to distract from the terror they all felt. Let’s see a season three, please!
Season grade: B+
