Key quotes
· 3 pulledNever underestimate the power of coffee in space
The series is branching out into other media, like a successful animated show debuting on Paramount+, and now a spin-off game.
It feels less of a spin-off and more of a lore-heavy enjoyable jaunt into the space bean universe that we've come to know for nearly a decade, lending life to the characters that have up until now been made of flat colors wearing silly hats.
