So I went into this show because my partner was like “Hey. You should listen to Among the Stars and Bones. I think you’ll like it.” I don’t like it. I love it! Okay I didn’t like the audio distortions. I totally understand it story wise and everything. My brain and auditory processing issues made it annoying. I can’t wait to learn what the solution is to Season 2 and what new problems the crew will run into (but can they have like a 6 month vacation first. In nature. With hugs.) I do wish we got more archeological stuff and learned more about the alien culture. Don’t get me wrong, I love the plot of the show, but I would sign up for classes taught by these people about the Proximans and love everyday.
Overall a great story, well put together. I liked the method of storytelling, and the voice acting was very strong all around. It was fun to try and figure out the pieces of the mystery. Look forward to future seasons if they decide to make them.
A bit of a slow start, but the storytelling really sucked me in. The characters are compelling, and the storyline left me wanting more of each episode. And the sound design is absolutely fabulous. Waiting eagerly for Season 2!
This podcast was so good when I listened to it at the end of 2019 beginning of last year, that I practically begged my fellow podcast-listening friends to try it out. I love the world-building, the xenobiology, the characterization, the formatting of the logs from crew members, the diversity in voices and names, all of it. I don’t know if there will be a season 2, but I’ve kept this podcast in my library for a year and a half just in case. I hope it comes back, even if it’s with a new crew somewhere else, because this podcast was something special. There is ONE thing that I thought WASNT perfect, which I’ll explain. Spoiler warning, because it happens in the very last episode. This podcast falls into the cliche of the villain explaining his whole plan to the protagonists because he thinks he’s going to kill them so that the audience can get the necessary exposition on the villain’s plans. I thought that, after such creativity up until that point, it was a really weak way to resolve the conflict. My suggestion would have been to have the protagonists go back after and explain it to their crew, or send a report on what happened after, not just the villain going “haha! Let me now spend seven minutes on exposition so you have evidence against me when you eventually make it out of my trap!” I still loved the plot twists and the end of the story, but the execution was poor.
