I'm currently watching Singular Point, and uh... It's unique. I wasn't hooked on the first episode, which is never a good sign for me in terms of a show, but I wish so far, that this series was handled with more intrigue. There's too much science mumbo jumbo currently, which I feel isn't the main draw of Godzilla, which is either kaiju fights, or socio-political commentary on Japan. It's not awful, but I think some other ideas could have been conceptualized. Maybe I'll change my opinion at the end of it. I'm only on EP9.
Edit of final thoughts:
It was neat. I liked having Jet Jaguar as a character, that was neat. But I still feel as if the heavy focus on science mumbo jumbo took away from what could have been a really cool concept explored on three fronts. Keep the science stuff in, because ultimately that's what the write wanted, considering he has a PHD. Let that be one plot with the Jet Jaguar team, meanwhile, have a second set of characters who are viewing this from a religious prophecy sort of lens. Mothra and the two heralds that accompany her could be that second cast of characters. Instead of trying to use the McGuffin device (which was low key the Oxygen destroyer), they could be trying to summon Mothra to prevent the catastrophe (Mothra has fought Godzilla in the past, so it's not out of character completely).
So on one hand, we have the science mumbo jumbo team, and Jet Jaguar's story, while running at the same time, the Mothra story line. Mothra Moths were briefly in the show, but I just think it'd be more interesting if these two different groups were racing to solve the same problem through different means; religion & science. The third avenue could focus on one character, and the struggle to survive, something to ground it and take it away from the scifi/paranormal aspects. The struggles of not getting eaten by a flock of Rodan and to show how desperate people can be in the fight for survival. A human element if you will.
Whatever side ends up winning is great and all, but since, if my interpretation is correct, it's like a time-loop, and these events keep repeating, hence why Jet Jaguar was the one who encoded the broadcast signal in the first place so itself can fight Godzilla. This would ultimately reveal that this time-loop happens is to prevent Ghidora from actually destroying the planet or conquering it. Almost like a safety measure. While it appears that this Godzilla is a cosmic horror in a sense, the reveal that the loop exists in the first place to prevent a larger threat would contain more intrigue.
But those are just my thoughts.
