What a hidden gem! If the above description screams Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy-esque to you, you would be correct. And if you enjoy Douglas Adams' humor, then I think The Stench of Adventure fits like a glove. No jokes about obstructive bureaucrats yet, but the galaxy in which Stella Thomas finds herself is delightfully topsy turvy. Not only does everything that Stella know and love turn out to be a simulation, it's the kind of joke simulation littered with jokes that a couple of slacker bro aliens would think was funny. In the real universe, for example, the status of horses and humans are flipped, and the name Stella is implied to be a rude word. It leads to several clever running gags, some of which had me laughing out loud.One aspect that The Stench of Adventure improves upon Douglas Adams (sacrilege, I know), is that the show actually cares about Stella's losses and gives them the gravitas they deserve. Whereas Arthur Dent may have missed Earth like he missed a favorite pub that closed down, we learn that Stella's best friend and partner were kind and loving and why their erasures are devastating. It makes Stella's arc through the season, of coming to terms with her grief and learning to try new things, something we want to root for.
