The entire first season is set up through flashbacks, with Blu Roland walking into a bar and explaining why she was there to the bartender, telling him all of her most recent adventures. There are several jokes made about how pointless this is, but Roland continues none the less. She explains to him how she met her friends Liq, Artie and Lew.
==Reception==
The series received mixed reviews at first though most claim that the series got better once all the characters were introduced. One critic called it a space opera disguised as a comedy series, as it features a lot of elements present in space operas, such as over the top moments, fantastical locations and surreal, abnormal ideas. The series' character design was praised even from the beginning, with many claiming that you could tell what the characters were like just from looking at them. The show's more dramatic scenes have split most viewers, with some claiming they hit harder thanks to the comedy, while others claim that they take you out of the moment for reasons that vary person to person.
