DEBRIS |OT| New Sci-Fi Investigative Procedural from the Showrunner of Fringe; Mondays on NBC/Tuesdays on Peacock
- Thread starter TDLink
- Start date
I like how the case just jumped right onto it without playing dumb, and ground hog just cut through the chase.
Let's go NIELS! no heavy baggage just sour fish and yogurt.
do I need this Craig side story? I guess to flesh out this character rather than just being bad government guy.
didn't see this episode ending in a cliffhanger

On the bubble from the start.
It's entertaining enough, but I don't know that the show is saying or doing anything particularly notable.
Debris: Riann Steele Previews Finola’s Own Trip Through the Reality-Altering Time Loop — And Why It’s ‘Beautiful’
With its latest episode, NBC’s Debris threw CIA agent Bryan Beneventi (as well as viewers) for a truly compelling time loop. And this Monday at 10/9c, it is his partner’s turn to have h…

Really intense episode to conclude the story. I was wondering what the ultimate solution would end up being.
And it looks like the case has altered more things, judging by the Maddox scene.

There are audio transmissions following every episode that play during the credits. You need to watch it on one of the streaming services unless you live in one of the rare markets where the broadcaster opts to not play promos over the credits.
Yeah I get the audio, but I just assumed they were the same. Just happened to let the last two eps play completely and heard they were different lol.
Here are previous transmissions:

It's not until episode 8 that they appear to tie into the episode.

Some people would tell you it will likely be cancelled because of the low .4 live rating in the 18 - 49 demo.
But the truth is we don't know, and it is impossible to have any indication, without NBC releasing the digital streaming numbers. To cross post something I posted earlier in the main TV thread:
The live ratings are somewhat low, but they've held extremely steady, unlike many other shows which show a steady decline. There's a consistent audience, and that is a very positive thing. You also have to take into account that Manifest has dropped over time to essentially the same demo rating that Debris currently has. If it comes down to one or the other, NBC may take the chance on the newer show that has held steady growing an audience before the next season rather than the show that is 3 seasons deep and in decline.
And, most importantly, we have absolutely no idea about the digital numbers on Peacock and Hulu. The show could be doing much better there than live and we simply have no idea, and I firmly believe that will play into renewal chances as well.
Ive stuck with this. Its decent. The last 2 episodes were very good. It has clever moments where you feel it could be more but it feels bogged down in generic procedural execution. Not enough flair and style to supplement the interesting storylines.
Loved the past 2 episodes. And part of that is because of how the show built to it. The procedural episodes always had a thread of season long storytelling plus main character development. They also set up an expectation for an episode, so when this wound up being a two-parter, I was shocked. But a lot of the character moments in these 2 hit harder because of how the characters got here. All season there has been a very clear theme on family and close relationships and having those torn away. The concept of debris fits exactly into that. All of the relationships in this show, of the main characters or episode characters, feature broken relationships. The show, on every level, is how to deal with all these scattered remains. Acutely satisfying to me.
Any news on season 2, I'm really enjoying it so far and the closest we have cone to Fringe since it finished
It was pretty bad, but I guess they wanted to sell the past scenes.
The debris experiencing humanity like the agents are experiencing the debris is an interesting concept.
Not sure how I feel about George on his own in a van.
I laughed right away, but how else will you know he's a Bad ass special forces.
he also has the longest beard so you know he's the boss.
Not much of an idea other than I think the narration was saying this Native American man had pieces of metal that - I think - he was placing in the different directions (north, south, east, and west, I'm assuming) and were probably pieces of Debris.
Not sure what the black wind is that they were referring to (if I'm even remembering this correctly).
Overall, this was an enjoyable episode for me. We kind of normally know where these soldier flashbacks often go in TV shows in general (someone getting killed that the main character really regrets) but they did a good enough job establishing the connection between Bryan and Asalah to make it effective.
I am curious what would've happened had Bryan stayed in that trance for longer - seems like there is some direction communication between him and the Debris, which is cool. Between that, the injections, and the end transmission for this episode and even the prior episode, I'm starting to get extremely interested in Bryan's backstory.
That beard was heinous.
Not a fan of that sequence.
It felt super tropey TBH. X-Files did the same thing too.
Not a fan of that sequence.

Its a signature at this point that great Sci-fi shows have terribly fake beards and wigs.
Really dug this episode and liked how they made the flashbacks literal. A fun way to explore backstory and push the narrative forward simultaneously.

Episode seemed to get the pieces in place for the finale next week.
Brian is now a believer and George has located the critical piece of Debris that Influx is after.
I do expect something big to happen next week that expands the scope of the show.

Anyone else notice some odd video quality issues with this show on Hulu?
I was watching the Quantum Leap, alternate universe hopping two parter and I notice that there's like horizontal stripes where things are a little bit blurrier than above and below them.
I'd look at a tree that's in focus, and if you look up it it would go high quality, slightly blurrier, high quality again.
It's something I think I've seen in a few episodes now.

Not exactly this but I've noticed some distortion in some scenes where there's a lot of lines (like a shirt with stripes or forehead with wrinkles). I did some research and ended up fixing this by reducing the TV setting for "sharpness" down to 0. It still happens but not as much and it's much less noticeable. Debris is the worst offender as I really haven't noticed this on many other shows in the past few months.
Maybe not the face exactly. I can tell you it's within the first minute or so.
Come on, you might as well say "series" at this point.
Writing is all over the wall.
No.
Debris flies through a crate and through somebody's head. There's blood spatter and stuff, but it's not shown in graphic detail. Happens right at the start.
Really enjoying the ending arc here. It was literally using cases of the week to build the main plot. Interested to see where this ends. If this is a 1 season wonder, then it was worth my time.
Solid show for the first season (pending the outcome of the finale). Starts out as a fairly standard procedural with some interesting cases of the week but is clearly building up a larger mystery/story in the background. There was a real stand-out 2-episode arc a few weeks back that I think showed the potential of where the show could go.
The characters seem to be hit-or-miss with most people. They're still developing and growing.
It's on the bubble. Wait for a renewal before jumping in, otherwise pass. It's middling and if it's a one-and-done an easy skip.
