I will grant you that that makes as much sense as anything else.

Usually I don't care so much, if the store carries me along well enough I can let it go. I wasn't quite so taken in with this one, so I got a little nitpicky.
But an egg such as you describe (a normal one, that describes 100% of eggs) cannot gain mass. It can change the mass it has into another form (yolk to chicken), but it can't add mass unless it eats.
So, since this one DOES gain mass, and it's a crazy egg from a never-before seen life-form, we can assume that it does…
But that doesn't change the mass. Yolk mass changes into bird mass but the total egg mass stay the same. But it's not like anything else about the physics or biology of this episode makes sense so whatever.
—It would have taken me about 3 seconds to set off all the bombs. Huge creature hatching near the Earth? The human race is your responsibility. Happy thoughts are nice and all and it's cool that it turned out well, but what if it had been a space parasite? Then what? Although I doubt even 100 huge nukes would have…
That was the worst episode I've seen for a very long-time.
Might as well chime in to the chorus of voices. This is just so unnecessary. I cannot imagine anything that HBO or Fincher can do to this series that the original series hasn't done better. Worse, I cannot image even HBO letting slide several scenes that the original did. Sigh.
In no way is Utopia supernatural! Fantastic, quirky, conspiracy thriller yes, but not supernatural...
As others have pointed out, Utopia is not supernatural, so here are some things that it is should you choose to change the title:
It would seem Ms. Trendacosta hasn't had the opportunity to experience this brilliantly unique and ultraviolent Channel 4 series for herself. The above description is right out of Wikipedia, and isn't at all acurate.
Yeah, that's probably the last word I would use to describe the show. That, and optimistic.
Exciting as I like Fincher and I'm a big fan of the original but 'supernatural'?
The second picture down is Sol in Madrid. It's a large square festooned with these guys. Trust me - when you see ten of them at a time the magic wears pretty bloody thin.
I think the Civil Protection Department deserved the blame since they were the ones trying to make it all out to be nothing and wanted the scientists to their bidding.
Again, it's impossible to predict the exact time and exact location of an earthquake occurring. True they did down played it because based on the research, they believe there won't be one, but it's not an exact science. If they don't down play the impossible to prove danger, there will be community unrest and people…
Did you read the article? Because, regardless of what was said before they met, it wasn't the seismologists who downplayed the danger. They're essentially being punished for how their scientifically accurate statements were misrepresented to - and misunderstood by - the public.
Really fascinating to read. And shows the breakdown in trying to communicate science and academic articles to non-experts in the field. Like the lawyer pulling up a 1995 article and using their words against them without going into the science of it (the model turned out to be wrong).
I would love to see The Doctor's next companion be from somewhere other than Earth.
