Saw the first 2 episodes on TV. Didn’t care for the humor. I like the storyline though. I like Moon Girl more but that already has a whole season out.

The name must be a play on Hailey’s Comet and people thinking it would be the end of the world. That’s clever. What did you think of it?

Like you, I had problems with the humour (a gag a second, not all of them landed), I don't appreciate that Scott is a bit of a well-intentioned idiot who knows about the list except the kissing part either.

Hailey's a decent character though, and I've seen clips in advance where she does a good job focusing on other things with her family and friendships, so I'm encouraged to check more of it out.

They've introduced a "woke" element to it now, Scott's younger sister Becker has a romantic interest in Hailey.

Scott broke up with Kristine in the latest episode too, so that opens up the possibility of Hailey moving in to kiss him at some point. I get the feeling episode eleven was intended as a mid-season finale, but more episodes are to air over the summer.

Maybe they're going to pivot over to Scott/Hailey/Becker as the triangle now?

Several episodes in now, and I really like it. Becker lost interest in Hailey and her sexuality was pushed to the back burner, so it's a conventional comedy/adventure series now where characters learn lessons and the bond between Hailey and Scott gets furthered without any complications.

I don't know if there was an executive order early on to make the show less arc-driven and more standalone and they had to adjust for all of that, but I don't mind it.

Looks like the show hasn't had a second season greenlit, and they've now wrapped production entirely

Truly bummed if it's the end

Finale aired today. Poor Scott got cucked just as he found out about the kiss on the list.

It appears the series has now been purged from Disney+ along with a few other shows. Just Wednesday Disney had begun another series of cost-cutting measures, laying people off at the corporate level.

In another twist to the tale, the show just picked up an emmy nomination for best original song

So I know it's been a year since there's been any news, but I thought I'd let you guys know I spent some of 2025 writing and commissioning a follow-up comic resolving the cliffhanger and setting things up for potentially more stories to come down the line
