After another shaky start to the season, the last four episodes of "Avenue 5" have been much improved, and the form continues here with episode 7.
With the missile nearing the target, Judd (Josh Gad) explains that the ship can divide in two and, with the theory that it will head for the bigger target, the crew decide to create a ranking system to decide who is "upgraded" to a cabin in the front. As the ship has been monitoring everyone's interactions since they boarded, a scoring system is put in place rewarding usefulness and kindness. This leads to all the crew and passengers gaming the system to try and get into the front.
Again, it's funny stuff on the whole. There are still elements that I don't like, such as Judd and Mads. The newer editions for this season, such as Justin Edwards seem to have cycled out of the story a bit, which is sad, but also there was next to no time spent on Earth in this one, which was an improvement. Matt's diversion into man of the people territory seems to have abruptly ended. Captain Clark remains the highlight though, with an ever desperate sounding Hugh Laurie again proving that he's a king.
Just one more left to go.
