Trivia
Netflix trademarked the name "Space Force" during production in early 2019. In December 2019, President Trump renamed the existing "Air Force Space Command" branch to simply "Space Force", and wanted to trademark the name, but found it couldn't because Netflix had done so first.

Goofs
Wild Horse is in eastern Colorado, over two hours from NORAD, and extremely flat, more like Kansas. There are no mountains visible. The "town" is actually about half a dozen homes and a post office, no businesses at all.

Quotes
F. Tony Scarapiducci: I should be tweeting this.

7/10

I came for Steve Carell. I stayed for John Malcovich.

When I heard that Steve Carell was going to play the lead role in a comedy about America's "Space Force," I had to give this a go.

I found Carell's General Naird underwhelming. He doesn't have the magic that he had on The Office, and the characters underneath him aren't sure whether he's a tyrant or just a buffoon.

Except for one: Dr. Mallory, played by John Malcovich. He's the one who saves this show. He sees right through Naird's bluster and foolishness. He doesn't get swept away by the jingoism of the Space Force, yet he's not preachy about how he truly brings Naird, and therefore us, down to earth with his gentle, authoritative voice.

Beyond that, don't expect too much. It's worth a weekend binge, but not much more.
