There is nothing interesting about this character.
He has Roy Batty's platinum hair, but Timothy Oliphant doesn't have Rutger Hauer's build or physical presence.
He seems to be an obviously evil android, like Ash or David.
But unlike Ash, you know he's an android from the start, so there's no twist to his character, and unlike David he's not constantly seething with hatred for his creators or even really doing anything other than what he's told, no obvious personal motivations unlike David, and no interesting traits like David's obsession with Lawrence of Arabia or backbiting butler personality.

It's like someone was like "Let's have a character like Roy Batty in the show" and thought the thing that makes Roy Batty interesting is his blond hair.

idk how you can miss on the obvious tension between Kirsch and Boy. Kirsh acts like a surrogate father for the synths, while Boy treats them as disposable projects.

Now that it's confirmed that Wendy can communicate with the xenos, the next step is for Wendy/Kirsch/xenos to stand opposed to humanity in general.
Kirsch is presented as fair, thoughtful and considerate and a careful diplomat even, while Boy clearly does not give a shit about anyone and is an egomaniac.
All this is going to boil over when the whole facility goes chaotic eventually.

>idk how you can miss on the obvious tension between Kirsch and Boy
Oh no, I see what's going on between them, but I would say there's zero tension in the sense that it's all so obvious. There's tension in the script between the characters, but there's no tension for the audience.
Yea obviously Kirsch is going to go rogue and is biding his time.
We've all seen Prometheus.
Unlike David he's not funny, or interesting, or overtly threatening, or proactive.

Think about this character, and tell me what he could possibly do that would be interesting in any way.
Anonymous No.214045868
I mean, there's the plot device (sorry I mean the brother)
Doctor Low Sperm Count (and his low sperm count)
And Kid Colonic (who needs his dailt but flush)
And Kirsh . . . is just there, doing what Kirsh does.

By sheer virtue of Timmy Olly playing the character, Kirsh is the remaining interesting character.

All the while the white haired bot is observing things unfold. Is he going to tell on the kids next episode? This episode seems like it was all just a build up for the next episode, whats going to break first? Honestly the show is interesting in its own way. Like no shit stuff is going to go bad, its a slasher/horror type thing. The characters have more of their own personalities than i was expecting for one of these types of shows. Im reserving final judgement for when its over. Sorry you cant enjoy it because of your autism or whatever,

And he has. He's a synth surrounded by hybrids and humans.
The different way he handles things compared to the others can tell us things about synth nature and contrast it to human and hybrid nature.

How is that not an interesting aspect?
